I would like Corinthian in this spot. He was one of my Derby faves early last year. If the track comes up wet, I really like Account for the Golds chances for the upset. I don't trust Magna Graduate at all, he seems to run either real well or not at all. Corinthian may freak out in the detention barn, paddock, gate, beer stand, little boys room or anywhere. So even though I like him, it's hard to take the low price that he'll probably be. 1 1/8 looks like a little too far for most of these. The old timer Evening Attire is 67% ITM at the distance and he might have another on the board finish in him. With all the speed signed on he might steal this. I'll play a tri with Corinthian over AG and EA both ways, and an EX BX AG with EA in case the big horse crumbles. If it's wet, AG on top of the tri.
