Any Given Saturday
Cowtown Cat
Dominican
Zanjero
Liquidity
Curlin
Stormello

Besides Biancone saying they are not going to the Derby it just flat out makes no sense. This is almost as bad as the Time Squared thought. What is it with you and Biancone horses?
the cologne maybe?

Is it suddenly a ten horse field.

I do, however, fear the field will be bunching at the back.

I don't know...there are so many mediocrities vying for that spot right now it's harder than picking the winner. Certainly Teuflesberg and Storm in May are strong contenders. Teuflesberg is a better horse but he is severly distance challenged, more so than Storm in May, and he will actually try to win at some point, which will destroy him.

maybe whoever comes up with the bookends of the derby....what do you guys think?

whoever comes up with the first, and last place finishers--failing that, whoever is closest to having both the first and last place finishers--i will send you a prize.

Yeah, it'd be fun. It just sucks because I'm going to have to be logical and pick one of them to be last. I guess we should wait until we get the final list of entries and post positions to do this, right?

oh definitely! i wouldn't run anything til derby week...i have never really got into the contest part of this board, so not sure if these things just get thrown in there out of thin air or what. but i wouldn't think anyone would get serious about any of this til that week.

I couldn't agree more! If he's that good, I tip my hat to him...but less than 8-1...Forget It !!!!!!
