he who? he tiago or he king of the roxy?

i'd say tiago has the better shot of the two. tiago has the right breeding, and if the race sets up right, and he gets the right trip, yeah he can win.

king of the roxy--i wouldn't pick him to win it.

i'm leaning towards great hunter....been following hard spun all spring, but just because i thought he was a nice colt, not that i thought he was future derby material. if he shows up, i'll pull for him-but i think great hunter is the one to beat.
cowtown cat is one to watch as well. i like distorted humor, and we know he can sire a derby horse-but i question his bottom half.

plenty of time between now and cinqo de mayo...a lot can happen.

things are really starting to get interesting!

Had a "small" win wager on him, but in the tri's and super's keyed him underneath the Pletcher duo & Liquidity...f-uped as usual!
He's definitely my "longshot" play in the Derby.
