    Yeah very impressive but also very green.He can be a force if McLaughlin can make him run straight and switch leads correctly

    I don't see Raddlesnake Bridge listed in the future Derby odds.

    Link to Wynn's latest odds dated 2-7-11

    I want to get him at MONSTER odds before his next race. Anyone else have links to other official VEGAS derby futures?

    I don't see Mclaughlin rushing this one to be entered in the Derby when he already has Soldat looking like a player.

    Hey Mproud you get to see Rattlesnake Bridge this weekend.He is taking on Uncle Mo in the Timely Writer Stakes.I think you might get your wish of him on the Derby trail if he beats Uncle Mo or is even competitive.

    He really didn't look that good to me. The horses in front were really tired and leg weary.

    It wasn't the competitors.It was the way he won.Similar to Dialed In's maiden win.He was off slow then had to rush up to catch up ,then fell back again,then closed like a freight train in the last 1/16 while racing extremely green on a pretty extreme speed favoring track .Dialed In only got a 75 beyer in his maiden win but came back to run a 97 in the Holy Bull next start.Rattlesnake Bridge only got a 79 in his maiden win but expended tons of energy that he didn't need to .I'm not saying he is going to beat Uncle Mo but if K Mclaughlin can get him to run professionally he can be a top notch 3 yr old.

    ML is 5-1 but think you will get 8-1 to 10-1 maybe even more cause Uncle Mo will be 1-5

    I'm assuming MONSTER show pool on Uncle Mo if there is one

    Pretty late in the game to get cranking when you're that green, but what do I know. A lot of the talking heads love Dialed In, but I think he's just as green.

    I thought he ran a pretty nice race considering it was only his 2nd start and he was in a match race with Uncle Mo.They went slow through the 1st half of the race but when Uncle Mo accelerated around the far turn Rattlesnake Bridge ran with him pretty well.

    Nice closing effort but the top two were not going that quick to the line.

    Ratt. Bridge surprised me today with that effort. Keep an eye on him he should improve up to KD if he goes in. As usual the picture changed completely today with exc. of Uncl Mo still early and might be another big unknown coming up in next 2 months.

    Rattlesnake Bridge will have to win or at least finish 2nd in the Florida Derby to make the KY Derby. Graded earnings aren't there.
