i was just going to start a thread to bemoan how Friesan Fire will be bet down by knuckleheads, who didn't handicap him, but figure because it is an off track that FF is somehow the "mudder" because of the weather in the La. Derby.

Prado is going to feel ridiculous maneuvering a stretch limousine like Dunkirk back there in midpack with a all those taxis. Especially on an off track. Babe

This is a very good sign that the weather will be perfectly nice.

When was the last sloppy track derby? Go For Gin? If you look at it that way it will be more than likely fast even if it rains a day before the derby as long as it's dry on Sat. Track Maintenance staff can do wonders these days.
