Let me start this off...

I'm going with #8 Bayern / Bob Baffert trained and ridden by Gary Stevens. Hoping that he'll be able to carry himself from start to finish and become eligible for the Derby. When he wins he should go off as the 2nd choice in the Derby to California Chrome. This Arkansas Derby looks to be the most competitive of the Derby preps and sould be a good barometer of this years three year olds. Trainer Baffert has echoed good things about Bayern and he doesn't go from West Coast to Arkansas for his health.

So give me Bayern across the board

Exacta boxes 8 w/ 3,4,6 and 9

Tri Key 8/3,4,6,9/3,4,6,9
3,4,6,9/8/3,4,6,9
3,4,6,9/3,4,6,9/8

Yours in Winners
