Interesting fact. Verrazano will go into the Derby with one more race than either of them, but profile-wise I was thinking he might be another Dunkirk -- if Pletcher could somehow get a Curlinesque campaign out of him, that would be brilliant!
I would have less hesitations on this horse if he were trained by Mott or Sheriffs than Pletcher.
