    I have became a fan of nyquist. He is not flashy but he has some guts. Very tactical as well..and you are not the best until you beat the champ..

    So what happened with Mohaymen today? Didn't like the off-track? Or perhaps an injury?

    Whatever the case, we now officially have a new Derby favorite. Either Nyquist or someone else. Probably Nyquist.

    I'm not sure this clears anything up about Nyquist, btw. Off track, and Mohaymen clearly didn't fire. Still not sure what to think about this unbeaten colt. Have to think he'll be severely underlaid in the Derby though, whatever his chances.

    I'm pretty sure we saw a naggish G2 winner forced to take on the real deal. And Mohayman jock sucks.

    So does that make Mario the second coming of Pat Day?
    Don't think so!

    Terrible effort from Mohaymen, so much so that I think he will need a race against n3l or opt clm so he can get his confidence back. Say what you will, but when a horse like Mohaymen gets thumped like he did that horse will lose his his swagger and run like the beaten horse he is!

    Right now, I wouldn't use him in the Kentucky Derby with DC's money!

    Had Mo' circled for the Derby.Underestimated Nyquist.
    But he won't and can't w2w the Derby. And please Mr.Oneill,can you train him to run straight, geesh?!

    I agree with you J.A.sucks,at least on Mo'! He did more looking around him than riding!

    All I hear is that the champ got a great trip and mo didn't...all I got to say is watch the replay of the juvenile..broke from the 13 hole-7 wide around first turn-4 wide trip the whole trip- and he still had a closing kick from about 5th or 6th..you don't have to be a fan of this horse you just have to respect him. Don't let your pride keep you from making money on him..

    I never let pride block my money flow R.P.
    I like and respect the horse just not as much as yourself.
    Was merely offering my opinion on the race.I'm not angry at Nyquist winning,more disconcerted with the ride J.A. gave Mo'.

    Below is what my customers received yesterday. I really disagree with all the pundits stating such negative comments on Nyquist. He's just one GUTSY horse and runs his TAIL off each race thus far in his career. He will have his work cut out for him in the KY Derby as he will face Danzig Moon that is a BLAZER in his own right. I think this years Ky Derby will see something like years past when the TOTE blows up. The favorite streak will end this year IMO!!!




    ROAD 2 THE ROSES

    RACE 14 - FLORIDA DERBY - The battle of the West Coast BEAST vs. the S. Florida SCREAMER, it's been written about all week long and basically two weeks as well. The heavyweights facing off in an Ky. Derby PREP. This is rarely seen of late and it's exciting to see to nice colts battle down the lane today as expected. All we've heard from the EXPERTS about Nyquist he cannot win this race and cannot run this far, but he just keeps on winning. That says a lot from my POV, horses have to have HEART to win races and this colt by UNCLE MO is all HEART!!! I feel he's been facing way tougher company during his career and it will show down the lane today over a main track that is usually favoring speed. If he wins on the front end today, the experts will be saying he was aided by a speed favoring track and he got the perfect trip.

    WIN AND PLACE - #4 - NYQUIST

    EXACTA AND TRI KEY - 4 OVER 2-3-7-9
