You may be right on Palace Malice, but I have to try one more time!!!  Hope he pulls it off, don't like Golden Soul at all but good luck to you Greenblack25 with your plays...I have been wrong since the first weekend in May, so just ignore my anyway.  Orb will not win IMO, so just find who you think can beat him.

Palace Malice....wohoooo! 

Do any of you think Incognito or Midnight Taboo have a chance to hit the board?  Loving my longshots in this one....Orb will not win IMO!

you will get freedom child at 10 to 1 in my opinion.  There will be tons on orb, the filly (especially with Rosie Riding), and tons split between the rest of Pletcher's Brigade, not to mention Oxbow as well.  I like Palace Malice, Overanalyze for reasons you have already mentioned plus Johnny V. riding, and Golden Soul if he stays close enough.  Longshot special Giant Finish to maybe hit the board.  I do not think Orb or Oxbow win.   This will be a wonderful betting race-GL to all!

Verrazano just may be the freak horse some think...he may walk the dog.  He drew an ideal post at 14 in my opinion.  Others to look for of course orb (still seems a shade slow to me), revolutionary (will be overbet though because of Borel).  Normandy Invasion also seems a bit slow to me and I don't think Goldencents can hang in there the 1 mile 1/4...reminds me of Shackleford, may set pace hang on for 3rd or 4th....and then win Preakness.  Who knows, I certainly don't.  Odds/longshot horses I think may sneak up-Palace Malice, Overanalyze (I actually think he may be sitting on another huge race and win the thing), Charming Kitten(unknown on dirt and Prado will at least get him in the mix and give him a shot), and finally Javas war....look how many horses he has passed in his last two races alone.  Not a big fan of Leparoux in big fields, but his patience may actually fit this horse perfectly.   One thing for sure, he will be passing a ton of horses down the stretch....  question is just how many will he pass and if he will pass enough.   Next few days are as exciting as they get in sports in my opinion.  Let the discussions and picks begin.   Good luck to all!

all of the last 4 derbys and 8 of the last 9 have had a horse that ran in the Ark derby finish in the super.  The 2 Ark Derby runners from this year-Overanalyze and Frac  Daddy.  Don't overanalyze this race........cause Frac Daddy isn't hitting the board-especially in the slop.  The other mentioned horse will.  GL to all!
