Cat Daddy: The only horse to post two graded stakes wins at 1 1/8
miles is Son of Joannesberg. Taking 5 weeks off since winning the Florida
Derby he did capture the Grade 1 Champagne off a close to 6 week lay off last
year. Edgar Prado is looking to repeat the winning ride on Barbaro for the
horse trainer Todd Pletcher.
Domincan: Can Son of El Corredor prove himself on the dirt after pulling
off 3 for 3 on the synthetic surfaces? Working out at Churchill Downs on Sunday
was fast but a bit jerky says one observer. Although he did race twice last
year at Louisville his previous experience on the main track won't assure
victory on the first Sunday in May 2007.
Street Sense: Working at Churchill Downs Son of Street Cry looked
great where he ran away with last year's Breeder's Cup Juvenile, beating 4
current Derby contenders. The average finish in the big race of more than
4 dozen runers, of which included nearly half that triumphed, was off the
board.
Looking to saddle his 2nd Derby winner since 1990 trainer Carl Nafzger has
only two preps like Dominican who is bred to run all day long.
Hard Spun: Looking to prolong his winning formula of speed and stamina
where he produced the notable record of 5 for 6, with 4 stakes triumphs, the
Son of Danzig not only led in the stretch of all five wins but also increased
the margins the wire. Will coming off of a six week layoff play a role?
Cowtown Cat: The Illinois victory reminds one of War Emblem who romped
in 2002 and was the last 3 Derby winners saddled by Bob Baffert. The Son of
Distorted Humor, one of 5 Pletcher trainees, is looking for his 3rd Stakes
victory and continues to work well.
Nobiz Like Shobiz: Son of Albert the Great, having a pedigree that
could double for the word STAMINA, has a wining profile that includes 4 victories,
2 in graded stakes at 1 1/8 miles this spring, plus 3 Derby preps. As if that
wasn't enough the colt was also trained by Barclay Tagg who happened to saddle
the 2003 Derby winner Funny Cide.
