Odds to win 2007 Kentucky Derby

[sharky17]

I was impressed with how game Stormello was in the stretch.

I agree - that was a big effort in first start this year. This guy will be heard from again.......

One of my Pool 1 Future horses, Exhale, is off the trail.

Here's a new one to keep an eye on - Summer Doldrums out of Street Cry, trained by Richard Viollette.

CAT - Any word on RAD - Don't think the Dutrows have any stock in here, so he shouldn't be missed in the Derby.

He is back and riding Cowtown Cat (3-1) in the Gotham today for Pletcher.

Rad is riding for Pletcher today as JV has the big guns at the Fairgrounds today Pletcher should make some bucks today. Coulda bet the farm that Agcee would have jumped in today. Some price possibilities here today

Pletcher/Dominguez won the Gotham with Cowtown Cat. Summer Doldrums was third, which is forgivable after the strong race last time. I still expect Summer Doldrums to win the Wood.

Circular Quay proved that it was just the awflul trip that beat him last race. He is very capable of winning the DERBY.

For the 2nd pool of Futures I like:
Circular Quay - currently 10-1
Summer Doldrums - currently 30-1
