Graded stakes are given their rating over the past 5 years running of the races.

Hi bdw,
You may change your mind after you see Santiva run, he's been very carefully managed and could be a big time sleeper in the Derby. At least in my book he is, no threat to Uncle Mo, but he could be a triple building block? He just worked a good 3/4's at Palm Meadows for this race in company with Oh Carole in 1:13.50 breezing. The big picture is slowly coming into view and this race will tell if Santiva belongs or not? TJ

Hi bdw,
A lot of my handicapping revolves around those type of guys.....some can stop a Mack truck with out brakes going down hill. If this guy is one of those, let me know so i can throw him out now:>) TJ
