Which Horse Will D. Lukas be pushed up with pace setter Imagination? I feel Just Steele with the Change in Jockey might Hit the board and surprise. Tuscan Gold, Might catch a great trip kust off the lead if he dont get completely cut off by imagination too much. I Like Tuscon Gold, Catching Freedom rearing from the back, then Mystik Dan and Imagination. Longshot to hit exotics Uncle Heavy and Just Steele or Seize the Grey. Lukas is sneaky good. You are right about the Blazing 777’s
You made a good point that the 9 post will be a disadvantage. ...Baffert horse is going to have to exert a bit early after leaving the 9 post to get the lead. ...Will probably end up costing him late.
Looks like we see the race somewhat similarly, I worry about the pace for Catching Freedom so I’m going Tuscan Gold on top but I’m with you on those being the top three with Mystik Dan
In the LOU Derby catching Freedom ran into a pace of 23 48 112 137. The pace here will be at least similar. CF went about 8 wide and ran past all of them. The pace does not have to be hot for him to win.
Smart Strike as sire- Curlin - Preakness Winner lookin At lucky - Preakness Winner Smart Strike as dam sire- Rich Strike - KD Winner Mine That Bird - KD Winner; Preakness 2nd Seize the Grey dam sire is Smart Strike. The colt is the fastest in the field and has improve significantly almost overnight. I expect him record gate to wire win. But in the event, he isn't good enough. I will be playing him in every position in my exotics. He is a majored entrant to hit the board Seize the Grey - WPS Tuscan Gold catching Freedom Box EX & TRI to be safe
The problem is the speed is not going to come back for CF ..and now ur asking for the horse to change its racing tactics. That’s a big ask so therefore, Bob once again is holding ace in this race as the lone speed in the front. Good luck though.
As Long as He is Feeling Good off Derby and Short Rest Mystik Dan Should Run No Worse Than 2nd if Not Win This Race....This is Not a Good Field and Expect a Closer to Pace Trip Than in The Ark Where He Was Out of it Near Back of Pack...He is The Key Exacta Horse Rain or Shine
I like the 3H CF to win the Preakness the 9H should take the lead out of the gate he will attempt to wire I believe CF will run him down to win the Preakness drawing off at the wire the only problem is since Muth is scratched the value with CF will be cut in half the Derby winner Dan had a picture perfect trip to win now if the track comes up sloppy Saturday that moves him up even more he has a shot I'm just picking against him for the win again my pick is the 3H CF for the win
Is the Belmont at Aquaduct this year? If so, then Mystic Dan has a chance to be a BOGUS Triple Crown winner. ftm, with Churchill banning the best horses from the Derby, he's also a Bogus Derby winner.
@@michaelpap3532 with the 'Belmont' being run at Saratoga, and the race being shortened from a 1 1/2 mi, it's not 'grueling' anymore, not a true test of greatness, it can no longer be considered a Triple Crown.
4 out of 5 of your picks are the top 4 favorites. Wow -like we couldn't figure all that out ourselves-same old BS by you so called experts. Have you ever picked a horse at 10-1 or better that ever won. Anyone can pick favorites. Not much here.
Common man, he picked Catching Freedom solid. 8 horse field, you will not get better odds at 7/2. Mugatu, Uncle heavy, Seize the grey, I doubt they would win. You are left with 6 legit horses to win. If you want a long shot Just Steel would be your best bet to win at odds greater than 10:1. Ask yourself, if the same race were run 10 times, same condition, would he win one maybe 2? On a good day, he came 2nd to Muth, beat Mystik Dan. He helped set a wicked pace in the Kentucky Derby (23, 46 3). All the front runners or those close to the front (Track Phantom, Fierceness, Just Steel, Epic Ride, Stronghold) all faded except Mystik Dan. Something to think about. I will put my bet when I see them at the paddock and post parade. If you are so inclined, Just Steel at the top, the other 5 in mixed
This is Bob's 3rd string horse. Nysos and Muth are OUT. So this is what Bob has left at this point. Think about that. In many otĥer yesrs Bob would not be sending a horse like imagination
Baffert has entered multiple horses in races before, hence the term 'the other Baffert'. The other Baffert is a term often used, because the other Baffert often wins. Imagination WAS the 'other Baffert' until Muth scratched. He has to be considered. addendum: I posted this BEFORE Imagination was covered in this vid.
