The finish: 9-2-8-6 Dead closer Archarcharch wins at 25-1 under Jon Court. Baffert's need-the-lead favorite The Factor didn't break well and finished out of the money at 4-5. Big balloons all around and the Kentucky Derby should offer plenty of value, esp. since Uncle Mo and The Factor have tanked in their most important preps. Expect the full field of twenty chargers, each eager to slay for their guru.

At least we now know the favorite for the Derby. DIALED IN. Very impressive was DANCE CITY.

Archarcharch won 2 out of the 3 Arkansas circuit preps. Do you think he's as good as Dialed In? I think he might be, who you be better. He broke his maiden in a non graded stakes race going 6. Now he won going 9 furlongs. The sire can produce horses who can win at the Classic distance. I think when we breakdown the contenders and non contenders who show up in this years Kentucky Derby, Archarcharch will be one of the contenders as well as the runner up Nehro.

Nehro will pick up 8 pounds and the extra 1/8th of a mile. Arch has as Maiden race over Churchill, where he finished a troubled 2nd. (steadied 5/8 pole)., last November.
