I woiuldn't totally count out Consituttion, if you look at his pedigree, the whole curse of Apollo really shouldn't play a role. I am not sure he will win the thing, but he is on my medium list and will absolutely be on my exotics list.

Default This is my point .....

Nothing is good or bad except by comparison.

Kristo raced in CALIFORNIA 5 times and hit the board 5 times including a 2nd place finish in the Sham and a 3rd place finish in the San Felipe. He had a bullet work and was sent to the Wood where he showed some speed only to spit the bit losing by 20 finishing 7th.

In California he is hitting the board in Stake Races.... he comes East and faces some real speed and real competition and loses by 20 !!! That SHOULD give you some indication of the type of horses CC has been facing and what is going to happen when CC meets some real horses in the Kentucky Derby.

If CC doesn't get a workout at Churchill he will not hit the board in the Derby unless he jumps the rail and runs into it.

Default Yes the plan worked so wel for kristo !!!

Kristo had a bullet work at SA and then flew out to New York and ran in the Wood. Things went so well for Kristo in the Wood that the trainer for California Chrome thought it would be a good idea to work at SA until Tuesday before the Derby. Why workout at the track your about to run your most important race of your life at? Makes perfect sense and it worked so well for Kristo what could go wrong ?

.you get a fair price (not saying an overlay as there is that nasty track takout to contend with , but top choices are not overbet at the Derby past 10 years or so..) .. You have a solid shot at seeing 3-1 on Chrome Derby Day..
Longest shots are never at their true value, they're all clumped in at 25-1 in recent years it seems. Even MTBird should have went off at more than 50-1 imho. All that said I allowed myself to place my first Derby future in years as I've always said that Derby future bets were not worthwhile but that has changed now. Had a few $$ left in one acct and put it on a 33-1 shot. If he makes it to post Im guessing he'll be 20-1ish but should be more.
If you're hot and heavy on CalChrom think you will get at least 3-1 on him on Derby day.
Is Constitiution this years Revolutionary?

I guess if I had to pick 1 it'd be Vicars In Trouble at 28-1.Think Hoppertunity will be right around 12 or 15-1 so no value there but Vicars In Trouble could be around the same so he seems like the best value there.Just about everyone else is too low.

he did dint he, he is lightly raced, will he enter, and do you think bravo will stay on him......to me he looked like he didnt even get into the horse till they made the turn.....and he just took off with ease, ,,like he could have kept going.....if he does run, you will get a good price, people will think it was a fluke, at 40-1 .. the public does....and maybe it was....
