MM,

I agree with your selections however I might add Borrego to the mix. Even though his closing style goes against the Churchill track bias, I believe with all the heat up front, the race may set up for a closer.

Lady m, sorry to hear about your hand. Hope it's doing better now. Let me aska stupid question to see if I've learned anything from follwing this thread. Are you saying that either 8-15 or 3 will win the race. They will either win or come in 5th or later. Also the 11-14-10-16-8 will not win but come in 2nd, 3rd or 4th. Are the above bets to be boxed? Please help me out. It's a lot of $$ for me for a horse race but don't mind doing it as long as I know what I'm doing and what horses to root for. :confused:

[Cabomike]

?????? Please look at my previous post and let me know how to place those bets.

Cabomike :

As it draws nearer to race time , and Wimbelton ( #5 ) was scratched I have to rethink this race . It seems to me that Lion Heart # 3 might benifit from this and get the rail and maybe a clean run .

I will be back later to set it in stone , with a better detail on what I am doing and how

Last Post :

From home as I will be heading to the airport in a short - short .

I like the comfort of having my computers and all the info they contain , but after talking to Gary a hour ago its going to be a rough day weather wise tomorrow and throw in the two scratches (which will shift all the horses inside , out one box) so in essence the 1 & 2 posts will be empty . Loading will take place in pairs ( 1 & 11 ) ( 2 & 12 ) ( 3 & 13 ) and so on . That leaves me to wonder about Cliffs Edge #11 being in the box so long before the break . Of the 18 horses left I see only 8 that in my opinion have a legitmate shot at it .

And the Derby favors the outs for several reasons ( 5 of the last 9 & 4 of the last 5 ) came from there and couple that with the heavy bottom leg ( closers ) saddled up out there I am left with the following ponies to figure out .

In no particular order I see these :

#18 Tapit
#15 Smarty Jones
#12 Borrego
#11 Cliffs Edge
#10 Imperialism
#3 Lion Heart ( my lone insider )
#8 Master David
#16 Castledale

I will log-on tomorrow from Mint Julip land and expose my selections and thier order on my tickets .
