Saturday Derby Preps

[DOGS THAT BARK]

Keenland:
Blue Grass; Short field of 6 will have no tri.

do like 2 tri's on undercards
5th race 8-4,5,7 & 4,5,7-8-4,5,7 $1 tri cost $12
7th Race grade 2 Commonwealth Breeders cup
Like the 3 Rollin with Nolan who is a 7fl specialist and that is one of the most unique distances in racing.
Also think the 7 Allman @ 10/1 is real sleeper in race and may get a share.
$1 tri 3-6,7,8 & 6,7,8-3-6,7,8 cost $12

Aqueduct
The Wood Race 10
Short Field & no Tri however like 6-2-3 in that order
undercard race 7 $1 tri 4,6,8-1-4,6,8 & 4,6,8-4,6,8-1

Oaklawn Park

Finally a full field but have never seen race of this magnitude saturated with so many local horses.Looks to me to be walk in the park for #11 Balto Star.With short odds,ml 8/5 and look to go down,will try a superfecta if available.

Keenland
Bluegrass
Millienum Wind proved much the best cruising wire to wire with 5 1/2 length win.
undercards
6th(whiched I incorrectly tabbed as 5th)7-3-9 not close
7th Breeders Cup 7-2-8 Had chance for big score here but Nolan never fired.Alannan was indeed a sleeper paying $37.20 to win.

Aqueduct
The Wood Congaree wins and must admit I did not like this horse and still don't.Led by 5 in stretch to win by 2 3/4 @ 1 1/8 mile.
undercard 7th 1-7-4 no cheese

Oaklawn
Ark Derby The 2 shippers romped the Oaklawn home boys with Balto Star winning by 5 and Rum running 2nd 5 3/4 ahead of homeboys. Had no superfecta but tri of 11-9-1 paid $142
undercard 11th 5-4-1

Good job DTB

 

[WarEagleBill]

Thanks, Katien and DTB

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

and a great job by you Mr K Really nice call on Mileneum Wind.First thing I thought of on his convincing wire to wire effort was your closing statement on thread "Derby winner will have to wire Churchill"
