Limehouse was one of the first horses I tossed.
Limehouse is running in the 3-4 range. There are at least a DOZEN horses in this race that have run faster, and quite a few of them will be "close to the pace and have a quick turn of foot."
If you think Limehouse is going to make a new top in the Derby stretching out off his Blue Grass fade, I guess that's a matter of opinion.
There are horses in here that are FAST that are going to be 25-1! I wish I could book bets on Limehouse (along with St. Averil and a few others). I figure the main thing he can accomplish is getting in the way of some of the shorter priced closers who are trying to get by him.
If there was any justice, Limehouse would drop out so Eddington, a horse with a much more realistic shot, could get in. There's still time. HP
