Default Adriano is in
http://drf.com/news/article/93699.html

Good to see he is in the race. Will be a decent price and will have my money for the top spot. He is coming into the race fresh and will love the distance. He is my pick for the derby.

Cowboy Cal ran well, maybe too well in the Blue Grass. To run a race better or equal than that in less than three weeks in a race called the Kentucky derby is asking a lot in my opinion.

In my opinion I would tend to side with horses that have shown ability on the dirt for a dirt race. But that's just me.

Its not like Adriano is sired by Danehill or Nureyev. He is by AP Indy. His FOY was a flop, yes, but does that mean he does not like dirt?? If his connections felt that way then whats the point even attempting the derby?
I am taking a longshot here and putting him on top of my list to win it.
