Looks like it's Shaun Bridgmohan - I'm shuddering at the thought

I'm actually glad he's on him. He had a couple of decent rides up on him.

I'm not particularly fond of Bridgmo. His winning season at Arlington went to his head rather quickly. Yes, he is a good jockey, but it's difficult for me to get past the 'tude. I just hope he rides Zanjero well, because I rather like that horse

No clue, but I feel like (and this is JMO) it is smarter to put a jockey that's already been up on the horse on for the Derby.

I totally agree with that!

And my longshot is Storm in May.

After looking at the past performances, you might be right. He is the only jockey who got him up there to win. I may have to put my personal feelings about Bridgmo aside on this one.

why is nobody mentioning SAM P.

I think he has a real shot at boxcar odds. He has had bad rides/trips and can move forward.

I agree. I'm at about 0% in considering him for the win, but wouldn't be shocked to see him in the 3-4 spot. He'll be on a few of my tickets in those spots.

With the lack of respect he has gotten, I think I would throw Scat Daddy into the mix. People seem to think he has a longshot chance of being in there...
