Re: KENTUCKY DERBY>>>WHO DO YOU LIKE????
This is a hell of a Derby...
In my opinion, it's setting up kind of like 2001 (Monarchos). You have two very gifted speed horses (Sinister Minister and Keyed Entry) pinned down inside right next to each other (the 3 and 4). Sharp Humor is relatively inside as well. The result: I'm thinking a huge speed duel. I loved Sinister Minister coming out of the Bluegrass, but he is striking me as a Millenium Wind type: huge Bluegrass figure, terrible pace scenario =>Derby flop.
That's all I've got for now... I don't think this is going to be won on the front end. I'm still trying to figure out who I think can get up. I do agree that a skilled plodder type like Steppenwolfer or Bob and John should get a pretty good set-up for a piece here, though I'm not convinced either has a chance to win.
