[Ten Thousan Marbles]

I think it is pretty tough to beat the two favorites today. They are good horses. I will not be putting any money on this one.

In cases like this, I tend to put a couple bucks on longer shots. That being the case, I think Carpe Diem has a legitimate chance and may well finish in the money.

A horse to watch, I think, is the much longer shot Tencendur. This is a monster horse who changed leads for the first time in his last race. We could learn today whether he also learned what to do with that new skill. It may be too early for him, though.

What say you?

I have futures on Dortmund and will have him in some exotics. I will probably regret it but when he came back to beat Firing Line in the Robert Lewis I thought right then he was a TC contender. It was all over at the top of the stretch but Dortmund came back to nip FL at the wire in an all out guts race. Then all he does is take the San Felipe by 3 and the SA Derby by 8. Can't see him not being a factor unless...of course any of a million bad things happen that can go wrong in the trip. Love the Baffert and Garcia tandem, they also have Bayern going again today in the CD Stakes. They may need a dump truck to bring home all the loot today.

Here's the Robert Lewis:

For the price, I like Materiality. For the actual win, I like Dortmund.

Frosted. Looked good in winning the Wood Memorial and has a terrific jockey in Rosario. Blue silks (w/white) are an added bonus.

Many live price shots. The 12 Int'l Star has just scratched.

Frosted is a live shot, Gambit. He would overcome a 15 year Wood jinx. Fu Peg was last Wood winner to win the KY Derby.

I've got Carpe Diem to win, Upstart to finish in money as a longer shot

Dortmund in front

Is it too late to change my pick?
