Thanks Up In Class. Not too much of a market here for the US racing but I like to keep an eye on it from time to time. pity about the favorite Eskandery (?) getting injured. He ran a blinder the other day, smashing a decent field.

I'm not into my US racing, but a friend in west coast US tells me "Paddy O'Prada" will go well at 25/1.

I dont think I remember ever seeing him ride. Talamo I mean.

Im a Velasquez fan. I think he and Pletcher are due a win.
Devil May care looks a decent shot.
€5 at 12/1.

Juwwi

does any1 know if the draw has much of an advantage ?

Talamo is a very talented rider, but has had some attitude problems..
Bit like a younger Kieran Fallon.. Valasequez, Talamo and Gomez are the best riders in america imo.

Here are the post positions and the number of wins since 1900:

1 12
2 9
3 8
4 10
5 12
6 6
7 8
8 10
9 4
10 10
11 3
12 3
13 4
14 2
15 3
16 3
17 0
18 1
19 0
20 2

Post #1 hasn't hit the board in 22 years.

Since 1900 there have been 15 fields with 20 or more runners .
So strike rate for post #20 is 13%, which is better than the 11% strike rate for post #1.

TBH I had heard of Velasquez before I watched any American racing. As for the best in America, I wouldnt have a clue. I just know that some of them get the best horses. I know Leparoux has a good relationship with a very good agent at Turfway, but he looks a great rider.

On that note, Borel is a cúnt
It's Mark Johnston commentating again is it?

mike65

They are going down, the track looks like a farmyard on a bad day.

Nulty

I have never been to the Kentucky Derby,
so I enjoy the photographs taken by our UIC members... I hope you will too.
