spmack declared Justify the winner three weeks ago and now you a month before the race picking a guy who ran on a juiced track in the desert. You guys are allowed to wait until May 5, 2018 to decide, you know.

I don't hate Mendelssohn and I'm certainly not trying to talk you off him. I would just say that I watched the last two weeks of Dubai and in all the dirt races, once someone got on the lead they were gone. There's no doubt there was a huge bias favoring the front. Still, it was an impressive performance. I agree that Thunder Snow is a serious horse and Mendelssohn looks great when you compare their respective fractions from Saturday's races. I just don't think he's going to be able to grab an uncontested lead in Louisville.

I think this is the most interesting and wide open Derby in years.

Mendlessohn is a Scat Daddy son, like Flameaway. It's a good year for Scat Daddy horses.

McKenzie has had a mishap. Baffert has signaled won't run in the Derby, aiming for Preakness.

I guess that just leaves him with Solomini? Baffert will not be headlining.

Did you forget about Justify? Also, after watching Solomini's last race in the Rebel multiple times, I'm not so quick to rule him out as a serious Derby contender. He obviously has some issues. Whether they're physical or just a matter of the colt being green, I don't know, but if Baffert gets him straightened out, he has to be reckoned with. He never quit chasing Magnum Moon even though he was clearly having trouble.

You're right about Solomini. Got caught behind Titled Ready with no where to go, but was still charging late once he got a clear path. He is a good horse that might have won that race, had he gotten a better trip. Not to be underestimated.

I think you have to take another look at Good Magic in the Derby. If he was four or five lengths better than Solomini in the B.C. Juvenile, then he's a lot of horse. Just had a bad trip in the Fountain of Youth when he got caught 5-6 wide at the quarter-pole behind Strike Power. He was flying down the stretch and closed a few lengths on the leader, Promises Fulfilled,. to get third at five back.
