Has any horse in history ever done less & was 12/1 to win the Derby two months out?

Salutos Amigos and Hear the Ghost are probably going to be pace casualties, but they are very interesting prospects who might have a look coming out of this race.

Even Kochees, who will be a massive longshot, his one dirt race looks real good on our numbers and he will get a lot of pace help.

This is a true test for Flashback though. He's not going to get a candy front-end trip. There might not be a high quality closer in here, so he will have to adapt accordingly.

What about Omega Star? He should like the extra distance and will benefit from pace dynamics.

I don't know that he's good enough, but he certainly project a perfect trip.

I am just hoping Flashback is the real deal, just like i think he is....
