The major preps are over for those trying to get into the starting gate for the first Saturday in May. There were some major setbacks and surprises last weekend.
1. Constitution: This year's derby field isn't that strong. Apollo's ghost may die a quick two minute plus death on derby day...the time maybe right
2.Hoppertunity: Mike Smith is committed and I am all in with him. This horse is a beast that may bring back the Real Quiet posse to the winners' circle.
3. Cairo Prince: Yeah boyee..he is in..looking forward to see how he trains...if all goes well it maybe a matter of how far.
4.California Chrome: I am looking for some Dr. Dre tunes to lead him out to the track...He maybe the fastest horse in the field..
5.Intense Holiday: Johnny V replace Mike Smith..that is a wash...he will be charging and knocking them down
6.Wildcat Red: A race horse is a race horse and he is pure race horse..Ante Up..the pace will be smoking and he may just not stop
7.Wicked Strong: The "Yardman" Maragh got his derby ride...ghosts from the past maybe in the stands witnessing history...get ready for the Marley Trenchtown Rock to flow at Churchill.
8.Social Inclusion: He is here because one can dream.. I want him to run...he is special and this is the occasion for special horses.
9.Medal Count: If he can run on dirt he will be nasty. He is a monster..one week turnaround and almost pulled off the double....Dale Romans will have him ready if he digs the dirt....See Animal Kingdom
10. Samraat: If only the derby was run on the inner track at Aqueduct with freezing weather and all is competitors ran as fast as Uncle Sigh...
11. Dance With Fate: This one made Kurt Hoover happy...another California horse...you got to give it to the man..he is a die hard Cali fan..even when the ship is sinking..impressive win..fake dirt lover...Don't see Animal Kingdom
12.Tapiture...Number one fell hard this past weekend..FYI Santana Jr won a bunch for Asmussen on Saturday...FYI Joel Rosario ride on Tapiture was terrible..wide the entire way...FYI he loves Churchill Downs
13.Commanding Curve....I hope he gets in..third off the layoff..will be dead fit...live long shot
14. Ride On Curlin...he proved me wrong...didn't think he would be around..is he better than Tapiture..I think not but he was consistent in his preps
15.General A Rod...He did everything Conquest Titan couldn't do...qualify..a horse that beat him stylishly on a cool Saturday at Churchill...he may get a piece which is a lot better than those ranked under him
16.Danza...if the "Boss" is really boss then the derby is all about who is running for second money..stop the madness...that was just weird and I don't care what Bravo said...He almost wet his pants after that win..he looked around at the wire and wondered what the hell was that.
17.Vicars In Trouble...He will be in the mix early but will "back da thing up"..see Juvenile
18.Ring Weekend..No chance...I know its horse racing and anything can happen..No chance..."Murder she Wrote"...see "Chaka Demus and Pliers"
19.Chitu..I got ninety nine problems and the derby is one.......I will wait for the Ohio Derby..are they still running that one?
20. We Miss Artie...Yellow Brick Road..the Eminem version..anything is possible..but this episode will write an ending from the back of the field. One Love Mr. Ramsey..you love the game..one day.
