No Hey Byrn....

Monba might grind out a 9th place finish in the Derby... if he gets a perfect trip.

At least Anak Nakel got the boot I guess.

That is surprising. Anyone know what is going on with Face the Cat since he's gone to Pletcher? He seems another potential strong horse in the "All Others" group.


Edit: To answer myself - looks like Face the Cat should surface in the Rebel.

that is what you might call the morning line.
you might want to wait until people actually start betting to decide if you see any value or not.

How about Barclay Tagg and David Carroll with more (2 each) on this list than Todd Pletcher..

Taking Asmussen and Pletcher over Asmussen and Zito in that Road to the Roses contest is going to ruin me in it.

Can't you switch like midway or something in this Road to Roses thing? Or was that TVG?

Out of curiousity, which Pletcher killer did you like for this year's Derby that you took him over Nick?

Had to be Monba. Even Freddy was probably ashamed of you.

For that matter, if I could get the morning line 10-1 on "all others", I'd consider that huge value. I'll be all over it. (the highest it's ever closed is 6.90-1.)

Who appears to be the best value in there? To me War Pass, Cool Coal Man and all others look like the value. I'm wondering why Cool Coal Man should be higher odds than Elysium Fields. Could it be his running style or pedigree compared with Elysium Fields? The fact that Zito trains War Pass and may point CCM somewhere else? After reading the FOY recap on drf it seemed like Zito conceded CCM got a great trip and wasn't inclined to point him to the Fla. derby.
