Default Derby Long Shot

With the Derby right around the corner and everyone saying that this Derby is top heavy and that it is going to be chalky, I was wondering who your longshot is as of today. Without knowing post, works anything like that.......

awesome act....provided that leparoux doesn't ride him like a goat again. it was not all his fault because the pace in the wood was a joke. but that horse could get the 10 furlongs at a price.

Two I'm trying to make a case for, but I just can't get past Super Saver's finish at Oaklawn. I want to puke when somebody says that was an improvement. You let a longshot sizzle fast fractions and can't get past him in a 38+ final 3 panels. You have to believe the pedigree and love of Churchill will push him through.

MI and IceBox have at least run by other horses in the stretch, so if this is as quick early as everyone thinks, they have a punchers chance.

Does anyone like Devil May Care's chances? Might be a good year with such a weak field for a filly to win
