2010 Short List of Kentucky Derby Winners as of 4-13-2010

Like so many of the derby prep races the Bluegrass Stakes and Arkansas Derby gave the beehive of speculation a solid kick. Super long shot Stately Victor (40/1) blasted past Paddy O'Prado to take the Bluegrass Stakes running away. Line of David (17/1) wire to wired the Arkansas Derby by a head. About the only thing that makes sense to me is Stately Victor - being a Ghostzapper colt - would develop a little slowly and show up in the winner's circle late.

I'll post the most recent version of my short list every Tuesday up to Derby Day, so come back regularly to see how "astray" I go!

My Crazy Pick of the Moment for The Triple Crown

I'm still not seeing anything that looks like a horse that could go "all the way." I'm sticking with Ice Box for now.
