DrugS Derby Dozen
 

I've scanned the PP's of all 398 horses who have just recently been nominated to the Derby and Triple Crown series for a $600 sum by their owners.

I am now ready to release my Derby Dozen.

#12.



This horse is seriously way too talented -- but I just like that D. Wayne Lukas/English Channel combo. Note how the trainers ROI is in the toilet with every category except routers.


#11



Again -- another horse way too talented -- but it's that D. Wayne/English Channel combo...and you have to love that its never run beyond 5.5 furlongs.


#10



Now this is a D. Wayne/English Channel combo I can go for!! Nothing says serious triple crown threat quite like a double digit length drubbing in a 40K maiden claiming race!


#9



Again -- I should probably be trashed for including a horse with so much proven talent on this list...but note how this guy has never run beyond 7 furlongs and has given ground away late in the stretch every single time.

#8



Now, this looks like D. Wayne's star! Never has this one Beyer'd better than a 50...and he's only beaten a combined total of 6 horses in five career races.


#7



Throw out the wet track race at Sam Houston and this Craig Upham trained runner looks promising.


#6




Hopefully he isn't named after the place where they plan to serve him on a plate.


#5



Trainer Martha Knox is very live with this son of Orientate who won a Retama Park MSW mile in a supersonic 1:44 flat.

#4



Nice to see Dale Romans getting involved. He has a big look with this Indiana Bred who was beaten a combined 50 lengths in two starts against Indiana breds at Hoosier.


#3



Nothing says $600 well spent like nominating this unraced Michigan Bred son of Syncline who has no published workouts.


#2



I watched this New York Bred "run" in the OBS June 2yo sale. The horse that played Secretariat in the Disney movie would toy with him. Nice worktab so far.


#1



This is bold!! They paid $600 to nominate this filly? Shouldn't they just aim her to the Kentucky Oaks instead?

What's another 600 bucks when you already spent $625,000.

Who is the best Michigan bred ever? Someone on this board must know.

Baker and Mack should should just light their money on fire and save some time.
Pretty sickening the horses they buy for over 500k.

Cashiers Dream, I just remember she was really fast

Badwagon Harry for best Michigan bred.

I like the Lukas half to Halfbridled. Should have a stellar career.

What, no Derby Dozen video a la Haskin?

Tenpins, of recent horses. Graded stakes winner at Kee and AP. There may be some older ones with better race records, but I can't recall any.

for notable MI breds its slim pickings, going way back there was one called Thumbsucker who had a decent record, and may have raced in the derby as I recall.

Private Thoughts also, that one was from the 70's.

There is a son of Tenpins with a great name considering the pedigree who was foolishly nominated to this years Triple Crown.

Big Dougie... I know the falling out has been rough on both of us, but how about a real Derby Dozen. Curious of your thoughts at this point.

I'm not your dancing monkey.

No your not but you are a miserable MF... Do you like anything??

I mean do you like anything in life period? Couldnt care less on your Derby opinions...

Joey Ice....handle this.

Im not really sure who hes talking to.... Im off tonight and willing to jump in if need be.

Isn't it obvious he's talking about DrugS?

he likes socks.

Whatever man, Im tired. Who is he? Why the attack on the Calzone Lord?
