For those of you game enough to fight the crowds to the windows on Derby Day I think there's a very 'hittable' small ticket pick 3 if you've got your Derby winner pegged.
In race 9 the crowd fav will be Day's mount 'With Anticipation' - and rightfully so, this 8YO gelding's career earnings tower over this field - but right into G1 competition off a 6 month layoff? Don't get me wrong, I ran my pace figs and he came out on top in each category, but I think there may be some value. If there's really going to be rain I think this may move up the 'value' on the #3 Rouvres.
I'm going 3 deep:
Race 9:
#4 With Anticipation
#5 Patrol
#3 Rouvres
Race 10:
Insert Derby Pick Here... but please leave out the 1 and the 15 and save yourself a few bucks! I'll be on board the even numbered 6,8,12 and 16.
Race 11:
Could be as easy as 1-2...
But if you've got any extra on the voucher your getting 6-1 on a firster out of Dale Roman's barn who looks prepped for this one.
#1 Draw Fire / chaulk city
#2 Tarkovsky - shows early foot and cuts back to sprint for first time...
#5 Roses in May
Best of luck.
