that remson day intrigues me for a lot of reasons. i had a big bet on la reina, and my condifence level was about as high as it gets. a tough loss.......... interesting Fla derby. i was very high on FL going in, and when i saw them pass by in the post parade, i was amazed at how much longer a horse FL was than RTF. RTF has a lot of stamina breeding on the dam side, but the horse looked like a sprinter to me. not that FL ran all that great, but the horse will keep running all day. I'm not sure he has enough agility to win from behind in a 18 horse field, but if they train a bit more speed into him, he could be a factor.
