But I like the 6 in the Carter. Seems like it should set up for him from just off the pace.

I like none of them. Not the best renewal IMO

great call in the wood

I think Outwork is a legit Derby horse. He was on top of a hot pace and still won in career start number 4. I expect another big step forward in the Derby.

Iowa or West Virginia?

Early pace is irrelevant?
You're better then that.

The pace was very strong, but that was an absolutely atrocious horse race. They crawled home and Matt King Coal was beaten just over 2 lengths contesting that pace. The likelihood of Outwork contesting what shapes up as a strong Derby pace and holding off a good group of closers in minuscule.

An awkward moment, for sure! It's tough for the same horse to finish 2nd and 6th.

It's really no big deal. I just don't get why the same announcers get all the gigs.
