Now, if that happens, Sandman's going to be rolling from the back of the pack. Sovereignty is going to be rolling from the back of the pack. So will Burnham Square, horses like that. It's going to favor them. But otherwise, I think if he's ridden properly, I think journalism's, you know, clearly, clearly the worst to be.
Honestly, I would ignore the weather. I really would. Only because of this. Horses nowadays, when they run in the Kentucky Derby, are so inexperienced. That none of them have really had, you know, any substantial experience running on that kind of a racetrack. So it's a crapshoot. You really don't know.
And they're all such good horses that typically they'll be able to handle situations like that anyway. So that's one variable that I wouldn't I wouldn't be losing sleep over.
The trainers are not being secretive. Everything is so out in the open here with all the media watching and all the works on TV and on YouTube and things like that, that there's really no way to hide. The way you put that, that question is absolutely perfect. And by that, I mean... Perfect question. for that particular horse. Some horses work great every time you send them to the racetrack.
Some horses just don't give a crap, and they don't work well anytime you send them to the racetrack, and yet they run really good in the afternoons, okay? That becomes just sort of part of the horse's personality, part of the horse's form. If you have a horse that normally works, lights out, and suddenly he's just working, eh,
so so bad sign if you have a horse that normally works black bluster and suddenly he's breaking watches boom that's a really good sign uh one of those kind of horses the latter is sovereignty trained by bill mott stretch runner the dolphin second in the florida derby
He's always been just a very average workhorse, and he's looked a lot better in the morning here at Churchill Downs than he has in the past. And he's going to be one of those horses running from the back of the pack.
Probably the coolest nugget is, and it's going to be a big storyline in the Derby, and it has been all spring long, is a horse named Cold Battle. who is trained by Lonnie Briley. If you've never heard of Lonnie Briley, no one else who follows the sport of horse racing had really heard of Lonnie Briley either until a few months ago.
He's a 72-year-old guy, calls himself a coon ass from Louisiana, never had a graded stakes horse of any kind before, much less a Kentucky Derby horse. And Lonnie's here with Cole Battle, who's You know, legitimately a decent three-year-old. He's going to be 20 to 1, 25 to 1. But, I mean, here's a guy that's, like, been a media darling back here just because –
He's just, it's like a kid in a candy store. He's never been here before. It's actually very stressful for him. Bob Baffert has really taken a liking to him. And Bob wanted to do a selfie with him. And Lonnie said, why do you want to do a selfie with old coot-ass like me? And Bob said, I want to send it to my kids. And Lonnie was just, oh, he just couldn't believe it.
And Bob was joking with his wife about how nice that old man Lonnie Briley was. And Jill, his wife, said, oh, man, you're as old as he is. And so Bob had to go to Wikipedia. They're about the same age. Bob didn't like that. I love it.
Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. So is there any chance this year? Probably just because this is the year that I'm getting off Japanese. Two years ago, Dervis Sotagaki, I think I told you, I thought he had a hell of a chance to win. Didn't get out of the gate. Wound up later in the year running second in the Breeders' Cup Classic. Last year, Forever Young.
He's one of, if not the best dirt horses in the world right now. He probably should have won the Kentucky Derby last year. He got beat ahead in the nose and was interfered with the length of the stretch. This year, Luxor Cafe is the best of the two Japanese horses. He doesn't look to be as good as Forever Young, at least in terms of the analytics, the final times, and stuff like that.
You go back and watch his last race in Japan, you can see it on YouTube. And it's like, whoa, boy, did that look good. But... Who did he run against? We don't really know. So bottom line, I'm getting off the Japanese this year, so this will be the year they'll probably win.
He's got a long shot chance to hit the board. Grande is the horse's name. It looked like Todd Pletcher and Mike Rapoli weren't going to have anything in the Kentucky Derby this year, and then suddenly Grande steps up and runs second in the Wood Memorial. He was wide on both turns, especially the first turn. So you've got to move him up a little bit. He's got a pretty good number.
He's going to be 20 to 1. I would definitely throw him into your trifectas and your superfectas. I don't think he can win necessarily, but he's in with a chance at a big price.
Put on some noble water. Yeah, exactly.
You're on Secretariat. I'm on Secretariat. All right. In the morning when you're in the bathroom and you pull out the scale and you step on it, what does the scale say?
No shot. No shot, big cat. No shot. I'm sorry to tell you that. Would I finish dead last? Probably.
Not dead last. Even if you were an accomplished equestrian. No, at that weight, riding Secretariat, no, he'd be up the track.
