His half-brother won a very famous duel.

Another slow horse that will be back of the pack at finish line

Also Dream Shake, named for the Hakeem “The Dream” Olajuwon move called the Dream Shake coincides with Houston Cougars playing in the final 4 tonight. I think you’re supposed to bet both. ( especially since if Baylor wins, I win my local bracket pool without even sweating the final)

Unless the numbers are wrong Midnight Bourbon should be ahead of Greatest Honour

AR DERBY

Caddo River
Concert Tour
Get Her Number
Hozier
Super Stock
Roman Centurian
Last Samurai

Man, there is going to be some real dandies that get into this field.

After the race, Brad Cox mentioned potentially going to the Preakness with Caddo River.

Doesn't he want something to force the pace and/or run interference for his Godolphin horse?

Makes more sense to wait for the Preakness with the Juddmonte horse coming off a bad race against an uninspiring group of 3yos at Fair Grounds this year.

I’m not sure he’ll need Caddo River in for a strong pace.

Are there any early PPs anywhere? Usually there are PPs for the Top 20 or so on the list, but can't seem to find them this year.

Into Mischief finally broke through last year with Authentic. Some other top sires have a shot this year to do the same, Tapit with the likely favorite and Curlin with the likely 2nd or 3rd choice (as well as a possible trendy pick in King Fury if he’s able to draw in).

Speaking of progeny, my wife is due to have our third daughter on April 28th. She’s gone early with the other two so I’m not too worried about the baby coming on Derby day but I checked and the hospital will have NBC available. :tro:

Also, as a sidenote: I tried but my wife rejected Rachel Alexandra as a name.

This is the closest I’ve found. It’s from Brisnet.

CADDO RIVER a go for Derby..

Mike Smith gets Midnight Bourbon call..

Mandaloun now open..

The pace gets a little more interesting. Concert Tour may just not be good enough but I wonder if Baffert will take the blinkers off. He was supposedly considering doing it after the San Vicente.

Known Agenda and Irad/Pletcher are going to be a popular choice at the windows. Same with Rock Your World. Could mean some great value outside of them & EQ...

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks!

Barring defections from top contenders, ROMBAUER targeting Preakness/Belmont..

No problem. I saw it on Twitter before you asked so I knew it was out there.
