Why does this feel like Snow White and the Seven Dwarves?

I hope the track lets some closers get in the mix. It's absolutely boring today.

Imperial Council to lose by 5 but will do a bunch of running after the wire. Then everyone will say that's exactly what the prep was for and stamp him as a legitimate Derby contender.

I'm just pissed Biker Boy is coupled. Might have gotten a decent price uncoupled.

The Wood is kinda weak but the rest of the races are good.

So what do you guys think about IWR and the pace in the Gotham?

It's probably one of the more interesting races to interpret on the (actual)Derby Trail at the moment, why not have an opinion about the pace? ...















JUST KIDDING!!!
APRIL FOOOLZZZ

Looks like another gate to wire day.

[dellinger63]

All Stakes pic 4 or using the 11th?

[pick4]

On last year's Wood Memorial Day the late pick 4 was the 7-10 ALL stakes races. There was an 11th race but that race finished off a late pick3, double and the pick 6.

I'm just pissed that KK is coupled.

That sucks too. The rule sucks, period, especially in a $300k G1.

[Alan07]

Will we see this live on HRTV & TVG?

[slotdirt]

all-all-Ah Day. Not seriously, but the horse is a cinch for third.

[Linny]

NYRA site says "All Stakes $400k guaranteed P4."

I'll bet the Bay Shore and Excelsior only:Yano and Giant Moon

Not sure I see the appeal of Giant Moon. The Benzel horse looks like the value in that race but I'll have to take a look at his trip in the Stymie first.
