Favorites in the Blue Grass?

Question

I happen to like Big Truck, but I don't know if he'll be able to stand up to horses like Pletcher and Zito have. Who do you like?

Answer 1

I like Pyro,Cool Coal Man,Big Truck and Visionaire

Answer 2

I like Monba for the upset.

Answer 3

Pyro is the most talented in the field but doesn't need more earnings to get into the Derby so they won't care about sending him out to win... they'll just want him to get an easy run.  That opens the field a lot.

The horse that I like the most (after Pyro) is Visionaire, but having drawn the outside post, it will be hard for him to win.  Definately count him in the money though.

Big Truck has a great chance.  As does Cool Coal Man.  For a long shot, look for Miner's Claim... probably not a winner as he's taking a big step up, but he could be good enough to run in the money.

Answer 4

Pyro,Pyro,Pyro,Pyro,Pyro,Pyro,PyroPyroPy... and Pyro
