MD/BA/J66 -Your probably right - it's way to early to annoint a '05 triple crown winner right now , however I couldn't resist . I know that I'm not taking into account a good many other 2 yo's around the country who don't yet(but perhaps will soon)fit the derby profile .
Anytime these young horse's run big efforts there are always potential soundness issues - look at GG's 3 career TG #'s - he might already be showing early signs of deterioration , I don't know what he ran yesterday but I doubt it was a new top or faster than the winner . I did ponder last evening as to why the whip wasn't used more on RH , to not ask the horse for any more than he was willing to give could mean there is intent to nurse a physical problem . To not push RH too win due to the fact that he's ahead of the game in earnings dosen't wash to well .
Although we don't know at this time how RH & GG came out of saturday's race , I still feel the TG numbers on Rockport Harbor's 3 races prior to yesterday point him out as a potential monster .
I'm looking forward again this year to '05 Derby futures wagering where I can hopefully take a shot at some BIG prices ...
