Derby Top 5 and comments (1024 Views)

Richiebee posted his top 4 in a different thread. It would be nice to know where others are leaning at this point. All subject to change with post, jockey changes, weather, etc. Also, I've not heard much talk on this board about testing and move-up trainers.

1. Sweetnorthersaint. I'm thinking he's this year's Smarty Jones. Just simply the best horse. I also beleive he has "tactical speed" and will not run with the leaders.

2. Bob and John. Reminds me of Silver Charm. Same even-paced running style. He should be peaking on Saturday. He'll be my saver in case SNS has trouble, or is not the second coming.

3. Private Vow. Very likely to run a big one, but just a cut below the top 2.

3a. Barbaro. Very solid horse. I don't like Dynaformer as a Derby sire.

3b. Point Determined.

Brother Derek should run an honest race. He reminds me of Came Home a few years ago. Fast, but not a Derby winner. Thoughts?
