I'm not saying they are gonna fire, but theres certainly some horses in the race that may be able to fire large late. Greater Good, Afleet Alex and Noble Causeway come to mind. I think theres a couple others that could shock the world with a little luck.

I do think the winner will probably be a stalker and not a deep closer. To this point the deep closers haven't been fast enough and I'm looking for a pace advantaged Zed to win. I was very high on Blues and Royals. He was both fast and pace advantaged. When Beyer said he couldn't win on one prep and annoited Bellamy the derby victor that cinched it for me. Now hes out so some of the bombs become viable with a little luck.
