    My derby choices for pool #1

    Out of 45 horses in the kentucky pool #1, these are my top 10 horses so far until pool #2 comes along if i were to place a wager now i would use two horses to win which are my top two horses listed.

    1-----#22 to honor and serve--------------------------------------------10-1
    2-----#13 much macho man------------------------------------------------30-1
    3-----#23 uncle moe-------------------------------------------------------9/2
    4-----#17 soldat-----------------------------------------------------------20-1
    5-----#37 riveting reason-------------------------------------------------5/2
    6-----#39 shackleford-----------------------------------------------------5/2
    7-----#38-run flat out----------------------------------------------------5/2
    8-----#1 anthonys cross---------------------------------------------------30-1
    9-----#27 caspers touch----------------------------------------------------5/2
    10----#10 dialed in---------------------------------------------------------10-1

    lets see if im close at all
    we still have more pools ahead and remember, if you bet any horses now and if doesnt make the derby, you loose your money i think im going to lay a win bet on #22 but not a huge bet maybe $20 or $30 to win

    5-----#37 riveting reason------------
    in all other 3 year olds in Pool #1

    Found on another horse forum:

    This time of year, I try to look for a horse who has, the following:

    1. A meaningful 2 year old campaign, and
    2. A horse who has stayed healthy, and
    3. A horse who has proved himself at the graded level, and
    4. A horse who has been close, but no cigar, and
    5. A horse who's bloodlines have the speed and stamina to get the distance, and who's sire/dam showed the trait of getting better with each race.

    It's easy right now to get caught up with the likes of Uncle Mo, Bretheran, J. P.'s Gusto, Tapizar, and the 2 Neil Howard FG horses, but it is still a long way to the first Saturday in May.

    The horse who fits my formula, at least right now is RIVETING REASON. His latest at SA in the Rob't Lewis was a near miss by a nose, and he continued on well. He has had a long campaign at the best level Calif can offer. Son of Fu Peg, out of a mare who has Roberto and Dynaformer in her blood clearly has the breeding to get the demanding distance. Those of you in California may be more famuliar with his trainer than I, because I don't know a hell of alot about Myung Kwon Cho, except that he owns and traines his own horses. I suspect he will have at least two more starts, including the SA Derby, before he heads East to Louisville.

    For now, one to keep an eye on.

    I would give you those odds for these horses to even start in the Derby.

    I think Dialed in looks good but this 3 year old crop doesnt really seem that competitive

    Its better for you that To Honor And Serve ran a dud yesterday.Maybe not for the Derby Pool 1 but if you really like him he will be a good price in the upcoming futures.Plus its obvious yesterday was just a workout.
