After the Philly race in November I pronounced Winslow Homer my Derby horse.
I was not overly impressed by what I saw today. I still like that he has tactical speed and Ramon can put him in any spot he wants.
Being out of a Summer Squall mare, you'd like to think he can go the extra distance, but he had a sweet journey today and I would've expected him to win by many open lengths seeing how easy he was travelling in behind horses as they turned for home.
Jackson Bend had a much tougher trip, ran a better race in my opinion and I am not a fan.
