lol Silver...you dislike Baffert as much as I dislike Lukas. Sarava is a retrofit. Anything that comes of him is just icing on the cake. I have to admit Lukas is so down now its hard to get a good dislike up for him. I kinda feel sorry for him, but he drove the big cars for a long time. Its time for others to get their shot and see if they can train up a horse to inspire the public and make the game bigger. I still fear him.
I have to admit I really liked Sinister G. (provided he was healthy) I sensed he had the potential to speed pop this field. If I were Pletcher, I'd reconsider Value Plus, because with a break he could be the one to carry them a long way, but I have to say I think Value is limited distance wise, I did not think that about Sinister. (It probably would have unprecedented ...whose the last Derby winner to come into the race 5 pts plus slower on T-Graphs? I bet its never happened. But, I was gonna get good odds.) I see a couple things in him maybe others dont and I could be mistaken, but I was definitely gonna put on top of a select bunch. If he stays healthy, we'll see about my outrageous feelings. I also think he would have been the nail in the coffin on Lion Heart for the win. Now I'm not sure.
Eddington is a good horse and a good one in the field if you're looking to bet one of the logical favorites, because he will certainly take some money and you'll get marginally better odds. The same is true of RHT who I really don't have as good handle on.
