Been bouncing around between the fastest horses here, and I've decided to settle on Destin.
Ran deceptively well in the Derby despite:
1. Dealing with that huge new top from Tampa.
2. 6 weeks without a race
3. Bad start
4. Dirt kicked in face for first time.
All in all, I think it's extremely impressive that the horse fired a 2 at 1 1/4 miles that day considering the circumstances. Should get a nice inside trip here without much traffic to deal with as most of the field are closers.
12 weeks ago he ran a race that would beat anyone in this field today. He's coming back to it.
