How will it be derby day?????

[jpops757]

Which one will JR pick or which one will TP give to him? Where does Decarlo fit in? Does he just get the one that TP cant get a rider for or is he just gonna need a ticket to get in?

I haven't slept for days because i've been worried about this scenario. I'll be devastated if Chris DeCarlo doesn't get a derby mount.

There's been a few threads with this discussion. The possible unknowns with CQ can make jockey assignments a lot tougher to figure out.

I don't think DeCarlo automatically gets a mount because he's Pletcher go-to rider at Deleware or when all the main guys are unavailable or riding for him elsewhere.
There's plenty of upper echelon jocks that won't have a mount locked in, and will probably get the call before DeCarlo.

Maybe Pletcher will throw him a bone if someone like Cowtown Cat or Deadly Dealer makes the race.

He needs to let that Super Mario 'stache grow and he'll win the triple crown.

LOL!!! Exactly!!! Congratulations I think you are the first person (other than of course me) to realize this seemingly obvious fact.
Stupid Las Vegas is afraid to offer a wager on who will finish 16th because they know that we would clean them out with our 4 bajillion dollar wager on Cowtown Cat.
