FINAL GAMBIT...
« on: May 05, 2025, 12:07:51 PM »
From DRF’s Kentucky Derby race chart:

“FINAL GAMBIT was squeezed and steadied hard at the start, lagged at the tail of the field, launched a sweeping move seven wide, was fanned out ten wide entering the stretch, fought on doggedly and was making up ground.”

A most anticipated ThoroGraph. 3? (Gulp) 1.5?

I loved Sovereignty but I played Final Gambit in all my exotics since he was the best bred to go 1 1/4.I use Formulator and his sire was 16/62(26%) for his progeny going 1 1/4 or longer (he\'s out of a Tapit mare, adding stamina on the bottom as well) and his DRF/Tomlinson distance rating was 433, which towered over the rest of the field.
His best path forward may be to become the next Next.
