He got wasted at the start. When they opened the gates Join in the Dance took him and Papa Clem out, I figured that was the end for both of them.

Wrong again, just like everything else on this Derby for me. Hell, even my 3 year streak of picking the last place finisher is out the door. Went with Join in the Dance and he finished a very credible 7th.
