No Hey Byrn....

Monba might grind out a 9th place finish in the Derby... if he gets a perfect trip.

At least Anak Nakel got the boot I guess.

That is surprising. Anyone know what is going on with Face the Cat since he's gone to Pletcher? He seems another potential strong horse in the "All Others" group.


Edit: To answer myself - looks like Face the Cat should surface in the Rebel.

that is what you might call the morning line.
you might want to wait until people actually start betting to decide if you see any value or not.

How about Barclay Tagg and David Carroll with more (2 each) on this list than Todd Pletcher..

Taking Asmussen and Pletcher over Asmussen and Zito in that Road to the Roses contest is going to ruin me in it.

Can't you switch like midway or something in this Road to Roses thing? Or was that TVG?

Not sure if you can.

His 3yo's are sinking like the titanic. Look at that list - the people who put it together believe Monba has his best chance.

Out of curiousity, which Pletcher killer did you like for this year's Derby that you took him over Nick?

Had to be Monba. Even Freddy was probably ashamed of you.

Yeah, based on his most recent performance I guess you were right about him.

I liked Check It Twice the best of his...and really no one else that much.

Though - the game gives you points for wins and top 3 finishes in Gr 3 and ungraded 3yo stakes.

I thought Pletcher would outscore Zito because of that - in fact - that might not even happen.

The question I have is why is everyone in this thread spelling the colt's name in this manner?
