RX just look at horseys that can beat the favorite Jacob Luft Kenny you are the man for pinch-hitting. Mr. Happy Hour! José De León-Alejandro In my book, Dialed In does not have legitimate chances Chad Rumor is that Dialed In injured himself this morning. RUMOR ONLY Roberta Soldats race last race was his second bounce after a top. That means he is primed to match his top or run even better. RX what is the best post for mud Gayla Lawson I say ArchArchArch . He is Improving and he has got his game together!! Kenny Peck Bob Z: I see a lot of speed, and the exacta made up of horses from off the pace GamblersLife Isn't Nehro the obvious public square bet along with Mo? ...

Ken Herlich would love to see dialed in win,he will have to handle a lot of trafic Gayla Lawson Stamina and Pedigree are what you want to look at. Kenny Peck Louisiana Derby lacked pace, I'm upgrading the closers John Smith Kenny, you in Louisville yet? If so, I'll meet you for a couple of tall ones. Roberta Soldat will be about 5L or so back. Najja Thompson I don't think Mo can't get the distance but if Repole wants to make him the favorite quite fine with me Fred Reardon blind leading the blind Joe Gleeson Kenny, are you using Uncle Mo? LuigiGiovanni Clockers say AK likes is oka on the dirt. Kenny Peck Closers are horses that make up ground in the stretch. Big numbers at the beginning of the PP line, smaller numbers at the end Kenny Peck I'll be in Louisville Thursday mjh444 who are the closers in slop? ray Derby will have its usuall 46 n change half and 110 n change 3/4 ... so can those who are on or near the lead continue on....

Watch! RX how can i tell which is speed or pace NJSpeculator I think Shacklford is going to grab control of the lead early. Any thoughts on who you think will set the pace. Cnizzle which horse will have a 'milkshake' on race day? Julie thanks, was thinking of throwing him in Gayla Lawson Borel is the Best and his horse has a chance that is really all he needs to deliver so watch out for him ray but the turf should still have moisture for those of us handicapping early BenMikesell which horse would be hurt the most by an inside or #20 post draw?

RX mo too skinny John Smith Is Steven Crist a slave driver or a cool dude? Chuck Harper Comma To the Top will be first under the line but last at the finish Ken Herlich make sure soldat doesn't wash out in the padock like he did in fla Ernie what's your thoughts on the euro shipper?

Kenny Peck To me it's a closers race Cnizzle I wise man once told me, make sure you box the 6,9 Kenny Peck I expect Midnight Interlud to be around 12- 15-1 Joshua B Pants On Fire is being overlooked here bob Z stop the idiot questions Matt Bernier I don't view Uncle Mo as true speed...he won't go straight to the lead, sit chilly about 4 or 5 off lead and get first run in my opinion. Kenny Peck 12-1 or 15-1 RX so closers no speed Joe Gleeson Good restaurant in Louisville...try Jeff Ruby's! Jamie Milligan You want to got to The Galt House after Derby!! Kenny Peck I don't like Pants on Fire, he's a speed to me José De León-Alejandro to me it will be a stalkers/pressers race John Smith Ask Watchmaker if he remembers working at Centennial with Jim Q. Hal Lenox Kenny Who in your opinion if it rains has the edges What horses? jcigarmouttet Jack Fry's for Louisville restaurant. Kenny Peck I would say so Rx, the way it shapes up now that's how it looks MikeM Zito low key...wtz up? gomezj323 what do you think Uncle Mo will be bet down to? Joshua B Kenny, this horse missed a month of training after the Risen Star, and still won the LA Derby.. He only had 1 work going into that race. Kenny Peck I'll be honest, I haven't looked at any pedigrees or pps for wet tracks. Too early cat thief Is it as easy as Dialed In, Nehro, Archx3 tri box? Any other closers of note? Kenny Peck I think Uncle Mo will be 5-1 Kenny Peck I know what you're saying about Pants on Fire, I just don't like the race flow for him Kathleen Stump the days earlier races will answer your speed questions Joshua B Pants On Fire has loads of stamina pedigree and is moving forward at the right time.

Michael Deverey Ark Derby Sanjay Bhartia Kenny- Brilliant Speed- improving BSF, distance pedigree. Could the dirt efforts have just been part of the slow development? Joe Gleeson Kenny, did the way 'Dialed In' finish up in the Fla. Derby concern you? Kenny Peck I'm not big into field strength in general. I prefer to analyze race flow RX rochester how did yu know that MikeM Kenny...if someone put a gun to ur head, who's the winner? Ken Herlich time only counts in jail Kenny Peck For instance, I'm looking at the closer from the LAD and the SA Derbies. Fred Reardon Free PP's? If it's free, it's for me. That's what I always say. Joshua B wmspt, west end here, couple blocks behind Bowman. Najja Thompson Thanks Kenny and fellow chat members and a very big thanks for youtube in adding to the research lol Kenny Peck I'd say 'Shoot me, I have no firm clue' RX how can i tell a closer Matt Bernier Arkansas a bit overrated IMO....super hot pace. Louisiana had a molasses pace which makes closers (Nehro) more appealing to me. Kenny Peck I'll be using the five horses I mentioned earlier Steve Popyak Any Oaks/Derby double plays? José De León-Alejandro which five? José De León-Alejandro kenny, which five? GamblersLife Isnt the final furlong at Arkansas downhill so its always a little faster? John Smith I hope it is dry on Saturday, as if it is not difficult enough to pick the winner. Kenny Peck Agree Matt, on both counts, but Nehro was also in Arkansas and was set up there MikeM any negatives on Dialed In? John Smith What about the rumors that Uncle Mo is Secretariat reincarnated? DRFDerby In case you missed it, Kenny likes: Midnight Interlude, Mucho Macho Man, Animal Kingdom, Nehro, Dialed In Joshua B Matt, Fair Grounds is probably the slowest track of all.

Chuck Harper Leparoux is one of the best jockeys in the country my friend! GamblersLife J. Leparoux AKA the French Strangler John Smith Every American should be required to serve in the military, and go to the Kentucky Derby, at least once. Kenny Peck Thanks Jim! Me too. I won't be playing the super, though, that $1 minimum is silly Bradley S. Ezra Hes the french skunk Jim Ecker The derby was SO much more fun about twenty years ago ........ Kelly It's by far the greatest weekend & 2 minutes in sports Joshua B LeParoux is overrated Matt Bernier Any thoughts on Master of Hounds? He was gritty in UAE but fact is he still hasn't won yet. You think Gomez can get after him? Kenny Peck By the way, the supers are not 10 cents, they're $1 Anthony Aiello kenny what do you think about Bouquet Booth in the oaks ? GamblersLife Correction Leparoux is the most overrated jock in the country. AP Hey, Kenny, John Smith I can't go to the Derby any longer, the women are all over me. RX what jockey are good Kenny Peck I'm not a breeding guy, don't really put a lot of stock in it Najja Thompson It's kinda puzzling Godolphin isn't taking a run at the Derby this year - not like we'll miss them just sayin' lol GamblersLife The French Strangler all he does is strangle horses. He never lets them run. Kenny Peck Seems like there are these rules that 'this horse can't get 10f, that one can' Rick Bertram All jockeys are overrated John Smith I'm with you Kenny, I don't care of your parents were goats, as long as they can run fast. Kenny Peck And when the 'miler' wins they go back and change all the rules again Jamie Milligan Leparoux is a great jockey!! Uncle Mo will not even finish in the money!!

Ezra Pepe Lepu stinks mjh444 so who wins? jockey or horse, in spite of jockey? Kenny Peck Cat Thief: The Florida Derby perplexes me a bit Joshua B LeParoux's return on investment is very weak.

Ernie Napravnik, Anna horse got a chance? RX thanks wmspt so look for closers then??

Joshua B RX.. you want a stalker/midpack in the Derby. Closers get into too much trouble in the Derby.. AP Kenny: Any concerns that 3 races in 6 weeks will be too much for Nehro? Chuck Harper Calvin has NO chance this year...period! SJU5 Kenny you really from Hoboken? Monmouth or Big A get you started? Jim Ecker rick - normally Kenny's replies would be to the right. Guess that couldnot be set up quickly Kenny Peck Haven't had a chance to handicap the Oaks yet. That's tonight's fun RX joshua how can i tell a stalker then Joshua B One who sits close to the lead, right off the pace setters.

Julie i've seen nobody mention katmanblu yet. i may not be betting the race but that's who i'm cheering for cat thief Nice tip about the timer at GP, I know visually impressive when I see it Kenny Peck I grew up in Hoboken, yes. Monmouth and Meadowlands too. Matt Bernier If it's going to be a jockey's race then wouldn't you be looking at a ton of long shots? Gomez, Borel, Domiguez, Bejarano, etc. Joshua B A closer can win, but they need alot more luck than a stalker does. Ernie Napravnik, Anna horse got a chance? Bradley S. Ezra Mine that Bird won offf the Sunland derby why cany twice the appeal with ;;Icant spell Borel''? Sanjay Bhartia Brilliant speed- improving BSF and distance pedigree. Early dirt form perhaps just indicative of slow development? wmspt Late Scratch Kenny Peck Kind of agree Cat Thief, that's the way I'm leaning PTWoodman Kenny, off the subject, didn't you ride a number of years ago on the NYRA circuit?

RX haha bradley good one haha Kenny Peck I understand what you're saying about Animal Kingdom. But if you watched his race... LuigiGiovanni Don't discount altitude training at Sunlands Park. Kenny Peck despite the fact that he was set up he showed good accceleration, rare on synthetic RX i think a turf horse will do it if its muddy enough Sanjay Bhartia Kenny indicated he isn't a pedigree guy...but I like the Dynaformers to get the distance Bradley S. Ezra Brilliant speed is peaking now,who else is peaking? Kenny Peck Interesting question about the draw AP... Chuck Harper AK's work was jaw dropping....trust me!

Chuck Harper He's running in the Epsom Derby next in June AP Kenny: Which data do you use to handicap, in addition to the DRF? Michael Rubino send the link for the free pp again GamblersLife I heard he is skipping the epsom for the Royal Ascot Kenny Peck Brilliant Speed's dirt races were SO bad, though Joshua B It didn't look as impressive because the other horses had energy too. Animal Kingdom rolled past some tired pigs. PTWoodman For many years I have reserved my decisions for Derby Day - it has seved me well LuigiGiovanni Clockers liked AK's work on dirt, even though bred for grass. Sanjay Bhartia Kenny how do think MOH will take to the dirt? Kenny Peck I compile my own data (race flows and figures). That and a comprehensive 'watch' list DRFDerby Our Derby Contender pages have liftime PPs, and coming tomorrow video analysis for each horse! http://bit.ly/iLk0pR Joshua B He was a green 2 year old.

Kenny Peck The Clam Broth House is where I had my first drink in a bar, at 16 Julie thanks drf!! Chuck Harper he likes the Churchill surface.....he exploded when the ride chirped to him.. Kenny Peck Schaffers was a staple for us, now it's a high-end sushi joint LuigiGiovanni Animal Kingdom. Kenny Peck I don't like any horse who figures to be a pace factor Sanjay Bhartia yes Brilliant Speed's dirt races were bad but the other approach is hea late bloomer and those were his first two Jim Ecker ken - who are the pace factors ? GamblersLife Midnight Interlude wins this race by 3 lenghts. LuigiGiovanni Bruno de Julio loves AK. Kenny Peck MOH (Master of Hounds) interests me a little only b/c he's a closer Gayla Lawson thanks Kenny, for all your feed back. RX how can i tell which horse will be the pace setter Tim more rx questions, more more more!!! William Cook MOH does he have a chance or a complete toss AP Hit up Impellizeri's for some awesome pizza, if any of you are heading here to Louisville for Derby. Good luck to everyone!! Kenny Peck I'm trying Gayla! Joshua B Disagree.. I think this will be a modest paced Derby. None of the speed horse are real gate bolters like Conveyance, Keyed Entry, etc.. bob Z comma to the top Bradley S. Ezra thx Kenny Peck MOH is a horse I'll use underneath, not on top. Chuck Harper By now everyone should be aware that expected pace scenarios frequently don't manifest Sanjay Bhartia hey Kenny you're definitely one of the funniest guys on TV...keep up the good work man! GamblersLife Kenny great job. You are getting 100 questions a minute and are aswering most of them. b Kenny, Agreed on your pace analysis, however, that's why i didnt like Super Savor last year because he had NEVER won except on the lead Joshua B Chuck, well thats good news for me, because for some reason everyone thinks there will be a pace meltdown in this one, and I just don't see Kenny Peck I disagree Joshua. When horses stretch out to these types of distances the 'stalkers' suddenly become speeds... Kenny Peck i.e, they have trouble passing horses Kenny Peck b: I lost last year for precisely that reason, didn't figure Super Saver could rate Najja Thompson Let's remember we're working with a twenty horse field somebody's getting boxed in Bradley S. Ezra No horse has won the derby in 45 years that lead at the 1/8 pole and gave up the lead in its last prep race ,,,Uncle mo Fred Reardon Yeah, thanks Kenny, watch the sky as it may be falling. Mud changes everything! DRFDerby We're chatting with DRF Handicapper Kenny Peck until 8 pm ET tonight. DRFDerby He said earlier that he likes Midnight Interlude, Mucho Macho Man, Animal Kingdom, Nehro, and Dialed In Kenny Peck Thanks Gamblers Life. the kids are in the bath Karen Martin Kenny has a great typing speed figure! Joshua B Well, not to brag, but I did have Super Saver as my key and scored the triple. Tim Kenny, any idea about how Master of Hounds will break, or his running style in general? Kenny Peck Not sure what that means Fred... bob Z track will be fast GamblersLife DRFDerby cant he go until 9PM? Joshua B Well documented on thorograph forums how much I loved Super Saver last year DelMarDennis Are they having the traditional pill draw or the other one where you get to pk your post. I can't remember? Kenny Peck Thanks for watching Sanjay! RX it will be soggy Fred Reardon Rain=mud Kenny Peck congrats Joshua! If I don't win I hope you do Bradley S. Ezra mo horse won the derby that didnt start at 2 .in 45 years.midnight interlude Kenny Peck Oh, gotcha Fred GamblersLife Pay him a little extra. Talking Derby with Kenny and complete strangers is great Chuck Harper Traditional.. bob Z Josh you are good as your last winner RX its been rainging forever there the track will be mud Kenny Peck As a guy who handicaps 48-72 hours out all the time I've learned to be skeptical of the weatherman cat thief Ok Ken, if you had to pick one horse.... Chuck Harper Find the horse that has the lead at the 1/8 pole and I'll show you roses! Joshua B bob Z.. agreed lol.. it was first time I hit the Derby since Monarchos.. I'm not expecting another winner, but I feel as confident this Joshua B year as I did last year William Cook Kenny, thanks for filling in. It was interesting, The payoffs are going to be good this year! wmspt Track will be fine Saturday! Joshua B year Joe Gleeson Kenny, just one more time...who are you using Saturday? Sanjay Bhartia so Josh B your top pick is Brilliant?? RX he dont know he too busy Kenny Peck Agreed William, whatever it is will be value, it seems b Kenny, you said you thought UM would be 5/1, what do you think DI will be? maureen Usually when it rains on Derby Day-clears up and they really seal the track Joshua B Sanjay.. nooo, Brilliant is only light use for me on back end of supers.. Im not a huge BS fan, I just think he has a better chance than AK Kenny Peck If I had to pick one horse right now (and I may not pick this horse in the paper), Tim Kenny, any idea about Master of Hounds running style? Joshua B both need to make big forward moves on an unprefereed surface Keith Rebec Thanks for you time and comments, Kenny! Kenny Peck It will likely be Midnight Interlude. Though I'm afraid he might be too close early Kenny Peck Master of Hounds is a closer Fred Reardon You do a good job Kenny, 10 minutes out is tough enough. Kathleen Stump I just watched AK's race at Turfway~impressed! Kenny Peck Thanks for coming by Keith! Karen Martin great! I love Midnight interlude Tim also, can get we get more RX questions, please? they are important... Kenny Peck Thanks Fred! It's important to do a lot of preliminary research cat thief Thanks Ken for the chat Sanjay Bhartia I'll definitely be using Midnight as well Hal Lenox AAA Chuck Harper Nehro has the right to improve more than anyone and if he does..he's the winner. Kenny Peck I hope we cash Karen Harry Podschwit Dick told me Archarcharch,I'm Nehro Julie i hadn't planned to use midnight.... but i really may now Kenny Peck Listen, I'll be using several horses. One horse I'll definitely use is Midnight Interlude Kenny Peck And Nehro Joshua B Nehro, 3rd race in 6 weeks, no two year old foundation. Stevie had him amped up just to get in here. He hasn't looked that super.. Pass Karen Martin will there be a 10 cent superfecta? wmspt Appolo Hal Lenox AAA / MI / MMM / BS Kenny Peck The only reason for Midnight Interlude is the SA Derby had little pace outside Comma... b Kenny, assuming Dialed In is fav, what is his odds? Vaughn Wibbles So you don't make much of the 'first horse to win the Kentucky Derby without racing as a 2-year-old since Apollo in 1882' thing? Kenny Peck And he was able to close. I just wish he came from further back, ala Nehro mark No ten cent super...CD doesn't like money Chuck Harper Fine Joshua...better odds for me! Tim Kenny, any info on Master of Hounds running style? Kenny Peck I'd say you'll get 9/2 on Dialed In Joshua B I still dont see who is going to set this sub 46 pace Chuck Harper Nehro - 10-12 to one? Kenny Peck No Vaughn, racing is a whole new game nowadays. look at even how they're prepping differently Sanjay Bhartia some of my prelim picks- Brilliant, Midnight, MOH, Nehro maybe Soldat. I'll probaly use UM and DI bob Z comma Kenny Peck I think so Chuck Sanjay Bhartia to save Chuck Harper Comma To the Top will set the pace RX im going to put some turf horses for third Joshua B Chuck, better odds for you? Everybody is playing the horse. Wise Guy horse goes 0 for 20 this year? Joe Gleeson Thanks! Great job Kenny! mark Shackleford set 46 and change in FLA derby Najja Thompson If Nehro is 12-1 I might sprain my ankle running to the betting window lol GamblersLife I wouldn't bet Dialed in at 9/2 odds with your money. This race is so wide open, who in their right mind would take 9/2 b thanks Kenny RX we all done Kelly So who are the turf horses ? Kenny Peck Thanks Joe. Any relation to Don? Chuck Harper Who says he's the wise guy horse? Thats a joke anyway! DRFDerby Get Kenny's official picks (and picks from other DRF experts) Thursday in the DRF Derby Guide: http://bit.ly/juTyX0 RX paddy o padro Kenny Peck Agreed Gamblers Life, but he can hit the board. (Dialed In) Joe Gleeson No. Matt Bernier Kenny do you think there will be a plodder this year that gets into the money due to the pacesetters faltering late? Sanjay Bhartia thanks Kenny that was great...great participation from everyone good to hear the different opinions! Joe Gleeson Good Luck! Kenny Peck Yes Matt Matt Bernier Meaning a horse that truthfully shouldn't have a chance. NJSpeculator Thanks Kenny, see ya at Monmouth Matt Bernier Ok ok cat thief Thoughts on Stay thirsty? Kenny Peck I'm using all the closers underneath, regardless if I 'like ' them Hal Lenox thanx kenny Start studying the Mudders... LuigiGiovanni Thank you! Congrats on your finish in the tournament. mjh444 thanks wmspt Stay Away! Kenny Peck Stay Thirsty fits that bill Brian Peeples Archarcharch...best last out Beyer, working like a beast, look out Kenny Peck Thanks Luigi, not winning it still stings Chuck Harper Box...Nehro - Archarcharch - AK and Diaed In...go get in line Sanjay Bhartia Kelly - Animal Kingdom, MOH, Brilliant Speed, maybe Twinspired...help me out Hal Lenox Agree on AAA Kenny Peck Hey NJ Spec, can you believe we're a week away from monmouth? Kelly Thanks Sanjay Kenny Peck Archarcharch another closer worth using, though he was set up in his latest NJSpeculator I'm pumped. However, I want a reduced meet. b Sanjay, IF you win that super you will surly get paid WELL Joshua B This Derby has merry-go-round potential, ala War Emblem-Proud Citizen-Perfect Drift. Kenny Peck As my buddy Jim Kachulis says, why can't he be set up again? Kenny Peck I also want a reduced meet. I think we'll get it, but it may be 4 days Kenny Peck a week Hal Lenox AAA will be set up here too Vaughn Wibbles Quick thoughts on Fla Derby fav soldat? NJSpeculator That's fine. I rather have four. Sanjay Bhartia b- yeah lol...i would be an idiot not to throw UM or DI somewhere in the top 4 Kenny Peck Joshua, you may well be right. If you are you'll score out Joshua B Vaughn. Here's my thoughts. USE HIM. Kenny Peck I think Soldat wants the lead, and that could cause him to have problems late Kelly MIssed Sanjay super repeat please LuigiGiovanni Chuck, I like your first three. I heard Dialed In took a bad step today. Kenny Peck Joshua is playing the speeds, he might be the only one who cashes Chuck Harper Too many want the lead...no merry go round in the amusement park folks! Kenny Peck Dialed In supposedly had some issue today, there were conflicting reports, but Zito claims hes fine Sanjay Bhartia Josh B- I missed your pick or point you were making...could you repeat? Brian Peeples Soldat is intriguing if he gets a good post....3 preps at 9f, with 2 wins (including an impressive one in the slop)...things to like Kelly So is Derek ROse Kenny Peck Ok folks, I'm off the clock. Time for a cocktail and a marathon session doing picks. Kenny Peck Good luck! Enjoy the Derby, whether in Louisville or elsewhere Matt Bernier DRF, where are these free lifetime PP's on the main page? GamblersLife Midnight Interlude in the Derby...and Midnight Interlude 75-1 triple crown prop bet already placed. Kenny Peck I'm off the clock, and onto a couple of cocktails Chuck Harper The post draw will be more critical this year than in the past Joshua B Chuck, compared to previous years, this is a very light year on speed horses. It's usualyl flooded with E8's. It's all E/P 6's bob Z ty glty LuigiGiovanni Thanks again. Matt Bernier Thanks Kenny Sanjay Bhartia Kelly- not necessarily what I'm betting as a straight super but 4 of the horses I like are Midnight, Brilliant, MOH and Nehro Kelly free pp's may not be posted yet Najja Thompson Thanks Kenny! Kenny Peck Thank you guys, best of luck Chuck Harper Joshua....you are fool if you think the pace won't be breakneck this year... Fred Reardon Arch sired horses tend to like CD. DRFDerby Some quick housekeeping before we go: Derby Draw tomorrow at 5, free Derby PPs tomorrow night. Picks on Thursday. Sanjay Bhartia or box for that matter...i would throw in some UM and DI to the mix to save maureen Bye, Kenny-nice of you to fill in-interesting p[cks. Kelly Sanjay thanks for the reply hope ya nail it Joshua B Chuck.. LOL, look at old Derbies. This year is light.
