![]() Considering Modern Look has no chance to wire the field with Raw Silk in the field, considering she couldn't hold off Dawn After Dawn after getting a perfect pressing trip on a medium pace going 1 Mile, and likely will not be able to hold off horses with the class and ability of Forever Together and My Princess Jess, I would rate her chances as having no shot, and she should be 30/1 or higher.

Bottom line, though, is I don't see how lack of pace in the race is going to help Miner's Escape. There are good horses like Dunkirk and Charitable Man that will probably be in front of him early, and there are good horses like Mine That Bird, Summer Bird and Flying Private that will be coming late from the back of the pack. As far as Dunkirk goes, there's obviously a lot of guesswork. Do you completely toss his Derby? I'm reluctant to toss races completely. If I toss Dunkirk's Derby, I'd have him at 7-2 tomorrow. As it is, he's closer to 9-2 in my line. --Dunbar

![]() She's at least got a nice record over "less than firm" turf. She's faced very good fillies all her life but this looks like a tough spot, in terms of the race shape. You should get a a nice price.

![]() Dunkirk's Derby is a complete toss. The trick is figuring out whether or not to believe his prior races (personally, I do). Miner's Escape is a speed horse/presser type in this field considering that the only other horse with much early speed is Charitable Man - the furthest he'll be back early is second barring a terrible break or some other unforeseen occurrence. The tough one to figure out for me is Summer Bird. There are some things to like, and some things to hate. It would help to know how Kent plans on riding him with the addition of blinkers. If he's tracking the leaders early maybe he's the one to take at a price.

![]() maybe kent stays just behind calvin , and when calvin goes kent will go?
kent obviously on another horse in the derby made a premature move , calvin just let him go that day and picked up the pieces |

![]() I think Flying Private is worth just as much of a flyer underneath as Summer Bird and Flying Private may be a better price. Flying Private obviously didn't handle the off track in Derby as he never has yet, and he arguably had a much worse trip than Summer Bird in Arkansas. I think it's between Dunkirk, Mine That Bird, and Flying Private. The three fastest horses in the race/the three horses with the top figures.

Those are my three horses also... Though I do not expect Flying Private to win... I could see him hitting the board. I would actually bet someone in a head to head I'll take Flying Private and they can have Charity Case.

oh sorry.. a head to head is when you and a partner each pick a horse in the race and whichever horse beats the other wins (doesnt matter if they run last and next to last). I'm a poor bitch but I'd put $10 or $20 on Flying Private beating Charitable man.
