... but I guess the Wood field was exposed as pretenders.

The SA Derby looks pretty weak as well. I know Life is Good is out but still the remaining bunch look less than stellar. We shall see.

None of them rocked my world. Medina Spirit is the horse of a lunchtime.

Will be interesting to see how the figs come back. I assume there was a strong headwind down the backstretch at Aqueduct based on the splits for the Gazelle and Wood?I thought the top 2 in the Bluegrass ran big if they didn't knock each other out from the effort.
I kinda like Rock your world because I always like just a bit of turfy influence for the Derby.

Which race had a 72-1 winner and a 15-1 horse place? Hope somebody had that ex. box from UIC!

Medina Spirit is much better as a blocker than as a runner......he has a purpose

It would be great if Essential Quality won the Kentucky Derby for Godolphin. Would give all of us small owner / breeders out there some hope !
