Forever Young had a troubled start in the Saudi Derby. He overcame that adversity, perhaps of his own making.

He took the Abdulaziz turn five wide, spotted rivals three lengths at the top of the...

Bloodhorse highlights two runners that don't make the 0:38 cutoff, Sierra Leone and Stronghold. My takeaways from those performances are very different. From the article:

This was indeed my initial thinking. Or some kind of "saver" usage.



This aligns with my subsequent (over) thinking. Maybe both "win" and "out of the money" scenarios get overbet, rendering the...

Can you fade Fierceness?

Fair to draw a line though the sloppy & sealed Champagne. But hard to forgive the Derby favorite for the Holy Bull. How valid was his excuse?

He won the Florida Derby going away, geared down,...

Seems reasonable to project a substantial speed improvement given all the other things to like.

I wonder if there's any net bias for or against Japanese Derby entrants. Do bettors shy away from a foreign path to the Derby? Or do they generously include a lesser-known novelty? Probably nets out...

Happy to acknowledge this makes a point I made in my last parallel post a day late and a dollar short. Thank you.

I'm not telling you society is clamoring for racing to end. I'm telling you it has waning appetite to condone livestock for entertainment. Whether or not animal welfare radicals are the cause.

This is actually a good thread. It's helped me sort out a view on this. Unfortunately I'm finding it harder to justify.

Society applies morals to animal welfare inconsistently. We have big...

DRFBets projects just a little less for :1: Forte (9-5) and more for :2: Arcangelo (7-2). That's a good price for :2:.

:7: Scotland is taking some money, but morning line is otherwise pretty tight.

I'd certainly be more interested in :2: Arcangelo at 7-2. I don't think 2-1 is outrageous, but I wonder if he drops below that. He's the one I fear most, and may succumb to using him more prominently...

Big of you, Zico, to put together a proper analysis of this race. You flatter the humble event.

Well, defining an overlay is pretty nuanced, even after the event. Putting aside statistical methods to determine that systematically.

I bet him. He had similar pace ratings to Angel of Empire, Tapit Trice, and Two Phil's, but a hell of a lot cheaper. The New York analysts (Aragona, Serling) were keen on him to get a piece. He was...

Hard to say just yet, but I'm slightly more confident he'll be the favorite than the winner, and a bit more confident than that he'll be an underlay.

I've been on this guy all along, too. Hard to...

Not a good day for a clunker. He broke sideways and ground out a tough trip from the last third to the second third of the pack. He did get a look in the stretch but no one that finished ahead of him...
