Zanjero is sitting on a big one. Some of these others may have already run their "big one."

Hmmm...I've been paying too much attention to the NASCAR shenanigans this year....shame on me for not paying attention to the ponies...

I like Street Sense and Curlin...Circular Quay may have a chance...not sure however.

Some are saying that Hard Spun may have left his Derby in his last workout.

I still like Hard Spun to win.

I will be playing a superfecta box with Hard Spun, Street Sense, Nobiz Like Shobiz, Liquidity, and Tiago. I may also play a wheel that would add Curlin and Zanjero.

For the Oaks, I like Octave on top. Super box with Octave, Dreaming of Anna, Cash Included and Rags To Riches.

Thanks, Bill, for putting it on the line. Now if we can hear from George and Mike. I think George is pretty predictable and will probably agree with your choice. Would still like to hear Mike's slant.

I'm a little surprised that Great Hunter doesn't figure in anywhere in your picks. Is this the new system at work?

I'm in the same boat... I haven't followed things much this year, either...

I'm picking Zanjero strickly because there's something about his look that I like. No science or fact behind it... :wink:

Tiago and Stormello are my favorites.
