Dogs is playing with my mind....too early in the morning for that!...LOL

I had to do it that way as my message was moderated to you. 'THE Site' also has PPs for key grade races throughout the 1st September week.

I enjoy my everyday. But Derby week certainly adds a fine sauce to the pastabilities.

It's a Rock Hard Ten adventure.

I looked at the Vegas odds before the Post drawing and official track odds come Tuesday.

We have fav probably a come at 6/5=A. Next 3 incrementally M/Liners and most likely at post time=B. Others should, guestimation a cluster of runners some17/1 to 21/1..and then there is the rest bet by one day window visitors Selectively C.

But rhyming..the one left out, gets in. Invariably.

Citing a Derby like California  Chrome's (owners even had a likeness in background) and got some soft horse PR. Public, no news, Tizzy as the Rock Hard Ten bet/key.

An A/C/B ticket would net @ 50 cents in the $800s.

A/B/B $75 _$90. At $2

This year predict some will leave the gate at 60/1 or more.

I knew it!!! 

I've been thinking Tiz the Law would draw post 17. No runner in the Derby has won from gate 17/ saddle number. 

And this year will have the new 20 stall gate.

What's it going to be?

The jinx.

Fav in the gate breaks the jinx 

New gate breaks the jinx 

New gate contributes to the jinx

The scratch of Art Collector is unfortunate.  Thought the only one with PP to beat Tiz the Law. And if had run 2nd or 3rd create a dismal exotic return.

They/PPs are on official Derby site.

Also listed are featured race PPs each day leading up to KDY  But have all entries before field selection and post draw 

Derby will used a 20 stall starting gate 

And now Art Collector is out.....my top choice, and one that I had at a generous 33-1.  Tiz will break out wide, anything can happen I suppose.  But the morning line of 3-5 may be the lowest of all time!

J J Castellano picks up his new Derby mount in Money Moves. Trainer Pletcher. Owner Robert La Penta substantial owner and would not put this 3 non graded or stakes race only, at a hip price $950,000 colt in as a vanity runner; or to get into the show. Albeit getting a stall in the new 20 gate has been a crunchy ladder.  

BTW: All races run at NYRA are replay free. Last race for Money was Saratoga, July 25, Race 8 as fav. Ran 2nd. Bumped gate, 3 wide mile 136, 150ish 9fl. Muddy drying. Take the bump, wide at distance, add Castellano touch to find 2fl more in the colt. I didn't leave JJ the rider out with his scratched mount. And I'm leaving him in as a Rock Hard Ten rider.

Hoofnote: I 'assumed the same position when Keen Ice with Javier Castellano moved past American Pharoah, with Victor Espinoza, to win the Travers Stakes. (d)
