Answer 5

Dennis of Cork I have 2 on him in the future book @ 46-1

Answer 6

It's SO early to pick a horse for the Derby.  Some of the major horses haven't even made their 3 year old debut yet.

I really like Majestic Warrior but he hasn't raced since he was injured in the Champagne.  He made a wonderful run in the Hopeful.  If he returns to form this year, he's my pick.

I'm also a fan of Pyro... he ran his final quarter of his last race in just over 22 seconds... that's huge for a 3 year old!

My mind might change by May if someone else steps up and stands out.  But for now, those are my two favorites.

Answer 7

the one that comes in first?

Answer 8

There are 2 months before the Derby... personally  I am still narrowing down my list. After seeing how War Pass won with ease, until his pedigree catches up to him I feel he may be the one to beat.

Of course with the normal 20 starters, luck will play a huge part in who wins. That many horses vying for the lead, changing lanes while jockeying for running room... it's anyone's guess.
