I\'m going to go ahead and open Pandora\'s Box. I do this because I have bet TAP\'s horses in the Derby in the past believing they are great \"value\" and well you know the stats. I hear people even on this board say that many of his Derby horses had absolutely no shot going in to explain his Derby record. So before the race, let\'s hear it now from all of the people that say his horses in the Derby are sometimes not a good fit for the race or weren\'t supposed to be there.
Which of his horses truly don\'t belong and can\'t win?
Verrazano--negative TG territory, m/l fav, undefeated. Dist. challenged? Jock not in rhythm yet?
Revolutionary-3 wins in a row, closing style, ability to maneuver through horses
Overanalyze--has a 0 on his resume, but largely unliked b/c of his Ark Derby
Palice Malice--3rd two turn race coming up, horrible trip supposedly in La (i still don\'t think he wins or is close), second in bluegrass, etc.
Charming Kitten--turf/synth horse
So, I see the first four as horses with potential angles to be used--now watch the Kitten come on up and get third. Narrowing it down, I only like Revolutionary and Overanalyze on my tickets. But again, I\'ve bet the TAP horses in Derby that looked like value so I\'m curious people\'s thoughts on his horses that don\'t belong before they run.
