You\'re right, my bad. For some reason I was thinking Rocco was on IH.

Well, that would give him a chance to revisit last year\'s ride and go 45 and change  to the half and make the race chaotic!

Too bad there is no Holy Bull in this year\'s field for him to ride....let\'s hope no safety pin either!

Why do none of you mention the fact Pletcher put blinkers on this horse before the race??

Because as we all know, when you want to rate a horse and take him off the pace, you add blinkers. Smith should have known this and strangled him back.

Adding blinkers with a revved up crowd of 150,000+. Yep, thats a recipe for a relaxed horse.

If a 1200 pd animal wants to charge to the front, not much a jockey can do.

P-Dub:

We all know TAP just used the Derby as a prep for the Belmont and the Jim Dandy...

Good luck this weekend P-Dub.

Good point. How could I have missed that logical move???

Watching replay of Dubs game, then will look at seminar. Living Room Downs this year for me, looking forward to tomorrow when we will get lots of final opinions.  Good Luck to you Richie!
