8: 3-4-8 (A), - (B), 5-6-9-11 (C)

Simple (A+B): 6x2x5x1x3 = 180 x .50 = $90

9th: American Turf (G1), 3yo, 8.5f-T (P4, P3, DD)

Yikes. Half of this field of 14 looks eligible for laurels, so apply prices liberally..

I used 5-7-9-12 in the 2-day $2 P6, so I'm married to those (and Derby Barbie of course). Mind Control (6-1) scares me here and would even if Irad wasn't signed on..

11th: Turf Classic (G1), 4+, 9f-T (P4, P3, DD, Hi-5)

Spread to 6 wide in the 2-day P6 (1-2-3-4-5-6) and that may not have been enough with Smooth Like Straight a wire threat and Cross Border & Ride a Comet no doorknobs either. Outstanding group for this annual Derby prequel..

Next Best: #4 Ivar 5-1 6th
Exotics Use: #3 Colonel Liam 3-1 DH-WON ($2.80)
Super Add: #1 Masteroffoxhounds 15-1 8th


12th: Kentucky Derby (G1), 3yo, 10f (P3, DD, Hi-5)

Admit to finding this a confusing Derby with a 100% legit (undefeated!) favorite that just isn't all that inspiring. Of note is Friday circumstance of Malathaat effort which could provide Shadwell & Godolphin with their most important North American wins ever. Meanwhile, I'll side with a well-priced Midnight Bourbon who has been consistent, has had a great lead up to Derby and will be among the leaders at the 8th pole. Rock Your World fits that profile as well, and in many ways is the horse to beat. I've built plays around that trio as A's, but I won't be surprised by either of Todd Pletcher's best hopes (Known Agenda/Dynamic One) or O'Neill (Hot Rod Charlie) & Baffert (Medina Spirit). O Besos is my preferred late running exotics candidate, but Keepmeinmind or even Hidden Stash can invade at giant numbers. While it may be a quirky edition of America's best race, it's been a pretty 'normal' Derby fortnight which feels good after an extended period of difficulty. Don't be shy betting whatever opinion you've formulated and get lucky!

Best Value: #10 Midnight Bourbon 20-1 6th
Next Best: #15 Rock Your World 5-1 17th

Thumbs up Pb72vett-winner

Hi Steve, in derby today your top 3 who are most leaning on to win? Mike has not rode much and not been on top horses for wins,i dont see any real threat of you putting hot rod in your plays. Any words would be of help.

Good luck again today Steve.

For better or worse, I’m singling Colonel Liam. Hopefully we can both cash today. Looks like a great betting card.
