Super Derby

This race is the best that Regal Ransom has looked since he got home ahead of Desert Party in the UAE Derby back in the spring. Looking at this race from an objective point of view, I don't understand why Regal Ransom's connections don't see that the Breeders Cup Dirt Mile set's up as a much better race for him than the Classic. Regal Ransom is a front runner and most usually a pace setter, but the pace he'll be forced to run in the Classic will keep him from getting 1-1/4 affectively. However, cut that distance back to a mile, and you'd likely see him in a stretch dual with Mastercraftsman for the wire in the Dirt Mile. His connections need to understand that likely hitting the board in the Dirt Mile will do much more for his confidence than finishing a likely distant 8th or 9th in the Classic. What's the old saying, "some pot's better than no pot at all."

mdracing69 · Nice effort by Regal Ransom in the Super Derby. Race was over after 1/2 in :49. Blame was clearly 2nd best in a fine effort, and the top two quality colts should continue to progress. · 354 days ago
tyanthony · Congrats to RR. Soul Warrior was overrated. I knew he wouldn't be up. The prelude runners didn't do well. I thought Red Lead and Electric Alphabet will be up there, but they couldn't handled the strong pace. · 353 days ago
gardenesque1 · Soul Warrior was definitely overrated. Prelude runners frequently struggle. No pace allowed Regal Ransom to stroll home. Blame was clearly 2nd best and is a future graded winner. Massone ran his usual solid race to land the show. · 353 days ago
cigar · I think both Blame and Regal Ransom have big futures. · 353 days ago
