Derby Six for 3/28/15

1. Dortmund  Big Brown- Our Josephina by Tale Of The Cat  Jockey: Martin Garcia Trainer: Bob Baffert Owner: Kaleem Shah, Inc. Derby Points: 70   Was flattered by a huge performance by Firing Line in the Sunland Derby, but you have to wonder the class of the field Firing Line beat. Though there is no question Dortmund is heads and shoulders above everyone in this division so far this year. There is a question of if he will get the distance, but with the way he strides out and how large of a colt he is I don't think it will be to much of an issue for this very talented son of Big Brown. Last Race:  San Felipe Stakes Last Race Finish:  1st 2.  Keen Ice  Curlin- Medomak by Awesome Again Jockey: James Graham Trainer: Dale L. Romans Owner: Donegal Racing Derby Points: 22  Here's hoping he has enough points to get in. Still really impressed with this colt and he continues to make jumps forward. He's got the pedigree to run all day and he loves Chur

Derby Six for 3/9/15

1.  Dortmund  Big Brown- Our Josephina by Tale Of The Cat  Jockey: Martin Garcia Trainer: Bob Baffert Owner: Kaleem Shah, Inc. Derby Points: 70  Very impressive effort in the San Felipe cemented his position as the top three year old in training right now. His bottom side of his pedigree doesn't exactly scream distance, but his sire was able to get a mile and a quarter. He just seems to be head and shoulders above everyone I've seen this year, and if he stays healthy this colt could be very special. Last Race: San Felipe Stakes Last Race Finish: 1st 2. Keen Ice  Curlin- Medomak by Awesome Again Jockey: James Graham Trainer: Dale L. Romans Owner: Donegal Racing Derby Points: 12  Super impressive run in the Risen Star, and with a little more ground this colt will only get better. He needs a long stretch and he will get that at Churchill Downs he is only going to get better with time and distance. Being by Curling out of an Awesome Again mare this
