Default Thunder Snow, and the forgotten BEST prep race

For those who have not seen this seasons' best derby prep , I urge you to view the UAE derby..run on Saturday morning about a month back at 9 AM CST

This was the best prep race of the year and show Thunder Snow, just winning by a nose over the Japanese champion. Epicharis, a grandson of Sunday Silence through a Sadlers Wells dam...is not a bad pony..but yet the Goldophin charge ran him down...twice in the lane...9.5 F

the replay is down the page at article bottum...wow talk about a good film..great action camera work

Best prep because you say so? How about the 3rd place finisher? He stinks. Ill take the Wood and Fla Derby.

Was a good horse race to watch but horse is way too slow in my opinion to be a factor in derby

Not on any ticket I could remotely play. I'd take Girvin with a quarter crack over him (I'm not playing him either).

I sort of have it narrowed down to six horses(quite frankly that's not a good thing)and Thunder Snow is one of them.
He's a classy horse,with nothing but good races on his resume.
But........the UAE horses just haven't fired........ever.
At 20-1 I'm kind of priced in on him.
I'll put him on the DD/P-3/P-4........every horse I use on those tickets will be over 15-1.
