mr C: I just want to express my appreciation for your your willingness to share your personal observations with members of the Board and your infectious spirit and and "derby fever" which I have had symptoms of myself since'72. The TG Board is by far the best place to be in the weeks leading up to the Derby and your posta are a big part of that.
My future wagers on CC have made me biased towards him aided by watching Espinoza choking down on him the last 1/16th in his last two open length wins. Doesn't appear to be one who can't get another 1/8th (his breeder says he won't have a problem but I guess that's to be expected. I am not sure that the CW is correct that there will be a fast pace. The likely speed WR and VIT have to back it down to have any chance to win. A slower fiest 1/4 will bunch them up and create traffic for the deep closers. That's why this is such a great race year after year, you never know for sure how things will play out. Also, why do you think a bounce is not in the cards off that big top? Enough of my rambling.
Good luck with all your plays , may they all come home safely.
