Dunkirk's Derby is a complete toss. The trick is figuring out whether or not to believe his prior races (personally, I do). Miner's Escape is a speed horse/presser type in this field considering that the only other horse with much early speed is Charitable Man - the furthest he'll be back early is second barring a terrible break or some other unforeseen occurrence. The tough one to figure out for me is Summer Bird. There are some things to like, and some things to hate. It would help to know how Kent plans on riding him with the addition of blinkers. If he's tracking the leaders early maybe he's the one to take at a price.
