FBWinners Derby Doings!
This has been the oddest year in many years with the workout pattern and gallops of the runners for the 142 Kentucky Derby. Ive spoken too many that are onsite at Churchill Downs and at this time only a couple runners have worked and gallop like true Kentucky Derby win contenders. Im also hearing from Lexington that NYQuist work was average and I know others are saying thats what Doug wanted and it was a better work than the final time. But my contact stated to me, NYQuist doesnt look like the same work horse that he saw in California. I will be have my eyes glued to his upcoming work this Friday at Keeneland and I hope we get to see him gallop over the Churchill main a couple days before the Derby. Below are a few runners that I will elaborate on at this time.
GUN RUNNER We have been real high on this colt during his 3yo campaign at The Fairgrounds and he hasnt disappointed since arriving at Churchill. Hes worked like a colt thats improving at this right time and has been galloping real well out of his works also. The sheets dont like him at all as he seems to slow to win this race. But one thing that is very interesting from my POV, is this connex had an agenda for this colt during his 3yo campaign and it hasnt had a hiccup to date. Hes worked like clockwork and after each win, he was right back on the track as the races didnt take anything out of him. Take a look at his works below since the Risen Star! He was out of the barn and back on the work tab only 9 days after the Risen Star and that was off a very long layoff and once again 9 days back on the work tab after an explosive performance in the La. Derby. Hes kept a 7 day work schedule like clockwork and he has had 4 works over the CH main since the La. Derby and his last two have been very good!! I can tell you one thing for sure, his last coming next week should be around 5F 1:01 or 1:02 as Steve tightened the screws this week and his last work before a race is strictly a maintenance work. But if Gun Runner for some reason works faster than the times listed above, you better start paying attention to this colt as the Kentucky Derby will be his 3rd start off the layoff which usually is the PEAK EFFORT!!!

SPLITS - Gun Runner 5F 1:00 w/ Gold Hawk. Start 1 back, finish 2 in front. 12.80, 24.40, 36.40, 48. Out 1:13.20
April 25, 1:12.20 B 1/2 at CD
SPLITS - Churchill Downs clockers timed the six-furlong work in 1:12.20 (1/2), breezing. Internal fractions were 12.40, 24.60, 36.40, 48.20 and 59.80, and the gallop-out went seven furlongs in 1:25.00 and a mile in 1:39.00
MO TOM We all know how bad he was ridden in his last two races (Risen Star / La. Derby), but this connex has decided to stick with Corey L once again. What a meet Corey is having at Keeneland, as hes the leading rider at this time. I have been told by many at CH, that Mo Tom has been galloping better than any other horse at Churchill. Hes worked twice over the surface since the La. Derby and the media and so called experts havent mentioned much about him at all. His work on the 13th of April really went unnoticed. I was also told via this connex as I have a connection thats part of the team, Amoss has stated hes not working Mo Tom any further than 4F as he doesnt need a longer work as he gallops like a BEAST!!! He gets more out of his gallops than a full work at 5F or 6F. Take a look at how strong his past two works have been since the La. Derby and its been real quiet from the experts in the industry on this colt.
MO TOM
March 26, Raced Louisiana Derby
April 13, 48:40 B 6/31 at CD
SPLITS - Churchill Downs clockers caught the son of Uncle Mo in eighth-mile splits of :12.40, :24.20 and :36.20 before galloping out six furlongs in 1:14.20 and seven furlongs in 1:27.40 under exercise rider Mario Garcia.
April 20, 47:00 B 2/27 at CD
SPLITS - Mo Tom 4F in 47. Splits 11.60, 23, 34.80. Galloped out 59.80, 112.40, 126.20 & up 1 mile in 1:42 THIS IS A SERIOUS WORK!!!
MOR SPIRIT He made all the headlines today as Baffert called an audible and worked him over the CH main. They stated his work was good and its what they wanted. I call B.S. on that, what needs to be mentioned was he worked in BLINKERS and thats where the speed came from today. He was a very lazy work horse earlier this year and I dont like to see a trainer tinkering this late in the game. They realize the pace will weak up front and they want this colt to be laying closer than in his last two races in CALI!! I can say one thing, if this one wins I will be very shocked!!! This isnt the type of work that wins the Ky. Derby. If they run with the hood, he could run off on Gary when the gates pop!! He never really could extend any distance on Jimbo Fallon which is a maiden. Watch for him in the entry box opening week!! He looked as good as Mor Spirit!!
SPLITS - Mor Spirit outside Jimbo Fallon 5F :59.80 from 4 1/2 F pole. Splits: 11.40, 22.40, 34.20, 46. Out 1:13.20 & 1:27
