Fasteddie---

I agree. Despite it being impossible at this point to determine WHO, it appears that you are looking at a Derby where the early pace horses are not that fast. We will not have CONGAREE, MORE THAN READY, BALTO STAR, PEACE RULES,etc.(class speed types)leading the way this year.

Just the fact that some of the preps have been won by bombs gives a good indication on how wide open this thing is.

I think EUROSILVER will miss the Derby. Zito is a conservative trainer. I'm thinking he has to get BIRDSTONE in the gate (Marylou has to be there wearing her hat) and THE CLIFF's EDGE is solid enough to perhaps get a check.


Good Luck,
Joe B.
