I have never seen a race so hard to handicap as the Hollywood Derby.

The Hollywood Derby is a very interesting race, this is an excellent betting opportunity, with what should be some quality horses at good value. The Matriarch another fantastic race should be more predictable it really comes down to 2 horses with perhaps a third.

Midships / Madeo in the Derby (... and welcome back Railroad in R5. Would love to see Fast and Furious do well there too but not playing it).

Good luck everyone.

In the Matriarch I like Criminologist.

In the Hollywood Derby I like Madeo.

The Bet:

$50 win on Criminologist

$80 win on Madeo

PPF..

I am definitely including I Can See in the exotics. Backed off thinking she could take the top spot, but agree she's worth a look at boxcars.

G/L..

Yeah she is in very tough but she is a very useful mare. I have been watching her for a year or more, and she hasnt disgraced herself at all.

Well that was pretty impressive run by Cocoa Beach, Precious Kitten was 1/5 when they put up 25 and 49.

Hollywood Derby super race, lots of value. To me this is a race where Cowboy Cal has to be used, Sailors Cap 12:1 ML? is another that should be respected, tough trip/pace dynamics in his last. Of the Cali based runners, Madeo looks the most promising. The unknown is Albahri, his win was only in listed company and for me the names he beat are not household names. But Biancone is very sneaky...

1. Cowboy Cal
2. Sailor's Cap
3. Albahri

I'll let Court Vision and Gio beat me today.

She's one of the few animals lately that can run on anything and connections that aren't afraid to. She should have a huge year next year with that kind of versatility.

my advice to her is to avoid Zenyatta on any racing surface...but yea she seems pretty special.
