Oaks/Derby Double?

[miraja2]

Oh, and my wager will be the five mentioned above in the Oaks with Shackleford and Dialed In.

Do you think shackleford will rate just behind Comma to the Top and Soldat? I like him, too, just wondering if he can make the distance. Hmmm

Tough to know.
His dam has already produced a 10f, G1 winner which is a good sign and - more importantly - he has looked pretty good at 9f on more than one occasion.
I could be wrong and the pace may end up being too quick early and he may fold up in the final furlong, but I think he remains my #1 pick.

Thanks guys!

The Baffert/Baffert double is fine this year

[dylbert]

Plum Pretty, Zazu, Summer Soiree, Kathmanblu, Daisy Devine

over

Mucho Macho Man, Soldat, Santiva, Archarcharch, Nehro

[bigjag0716]

I kinda like that, although I might take out Santiva and add Soldat or Midnight interlude

Thanks Steve and Mclem, now I only have to avoid the Whammy. It's been a personal favorite bet for me because the success I've had the last few years. The Original plan was to single R Heat Lightning and go deep in the Derby. As we all know, horseplayers have to make adjustments on the fly. Here we go.
