He does have the ability to handle 10 furlongs which a vast majority can not. He is an under the "radar" horse to me. A must use in the exotics.

Definate Yes. I think the horse is improving, well trained, and top effort Saturday. One of my three key horses.

He's WAY out of his league.

To his credit he did handle Reporting For Duty without too much effort at the Thorne.

He did it while overcoming the perfect trip of the century.

I'm so impressed that I'm overwhelmed. Cowtown Cat is the kind of horse you ask someone about an hour after the Derby and they say " I think he was 16th but those might have been his colors passing the wire 30 seconds after the 19th horse ( who will undoubtably be Storm in May ).

I am far from having that kind of opinion. Right now I am more amused by some of the ridiculous entrants in this year's Derby. Storm in May absolutely stands out as one of the most idiotic entries I have ever seen in the Derby.

I have the number at 5-6 entrants who have no place in the starting gate..The number of tosses will increase slightly with the post positions..Will Storm in May have any money thrown his way, other than his connections??

I won't be putting the following on any exacta tickets on Saturday:

Storm In May
Slews Tizzy On Edit Teuflesberg gets added to the tossed list
Xchanger
Cobalt Blue
Sedgefield

doubtfull that I'll be using Zanjero or Tiago either

I believe they are opting for the Preakness instead..Cobalt Blue is my pick to finish furthest up the track..

Yes...he's becoming my longshot play...he'll be a big price and is worth a shot underneath the fav's in the exotics.

Why not?

SO:

Andy's toss list:

Stormello
Liquidity
Xchanger
Storm In May
Cowtown Cat
Teuflesberg (if he goes)
Cobalt Blue
Sedgefield

Edit:

Bwana Bull is ludicrous. Add him to Andy's toss list.

Add Bwana Bull, Hard Spun, and Dominican to that and you have the horses that I won't have on any of my tickets.

I'm lost on what to do with Bwana Bull (crazy, eh?) and Hard Spun.

I can see you are in rare form today, you need to keep your form until Saturday.
