In retrospect if things were always like this I guess I may have trained a few Derby prospects. The fact that they were turf horses or fillies doesnt seem to matter anymore.

The most talented horse I had was Strength and Honor but he was always compromised by injuries and ailments. Battle Won was probably the most accomplished. Nothing to Lose was the best turf horse I had even though I only had him for his maiden win. He would have been a phony polytrack Derby contender this year for sure.

gomez is riding court vision
nak is riding colonel john...its always been his mount

Supposedly there are rumors that Nakatani is off Col. John and Gomez is on. Not sure there's much to the story, though. . .

I don't think it is as clear cut as you seem to think.

why not ?

Because I really don't think Gomez is going to settle for Court Vision.

[IrishofNDMan]

I really have no strong Derby opinions as of now, but if Prado decides to go with Tale of Ekati over Monba then I am leaning towards ToE.
