Built ran a huge one in the Gunrunner . The Cat Man, Wayne Catalano knows how to manage a good horse when he gets one. Sloppy track for Saturday is in the forecast. Loveberry back on board, on another really good Hard Spun colt three years after Two Phil's. With the outside post and the track condition, and both his wins have come on or just off the pace, Built should be ridden aggressively for a forward position and hope to get to the first turn first and not be hung wide. If he does, and the fractions are moderately run, and pairs that up or improves off that effort, he should win in a canter. Catalano is pretty high on this one, and he doesn't beat around the bush about his chances. His interview in the DRF, linked at the end, he sounds confident.
This is a guy that should be in the Hall of Fame, having almost 5000 wins riding and training, and would be worthy of being bestowed by the Derby Gods as a Kentucky Derby winner. I'll be rooting for him and his horse, and will be a single in my multi race exotics. Has had some time from the last race , so will be playing against a bounce.
Don't know what number Barnes got in his last race, but Innovator has the 1 hole and ran Barnes to a nose first time out for Barnes at Churchill. He should also be sent for position , and has been pairing his numbers last few outings.
Assmusens horse looks intriguing, has the second best figure in the race, Admiral Dennis is scratching for an allowance race on Sunday, but has Disco party for Juddmonte. I also fine Dallas Stewart's charge in the race , so I will look to add those in some exactas and tri/supers.
Any other thoughts on that race.
