It is going to be Fierceness, If it has a fairly good trip and breaks well. It could be Sierra Leone ( or Catching Freedom) if up front Dornoch, Just. a touch, or my main man Joel Rosario on Track Phantom set fast fractions early. Or it might be one of the same horses up front on the lead, if they can control the race, Johnny V gets tangled up in traffic, Tyler Gaffalione is boxed on the rail late, and they are running on sloppy track where 99* Beyer speed figure, or less, is enough to win the race.(* Most of the mentioned horses will have to improve since their last prep race.)
Bob Baffert is not bigger than the Kentucky Derby and if he died the Derby would go on now Baffert has done the punishment let him in if he is caught again a lifetime ban it’s that simple and those owners are idiots to stand behind him and prevent their horse from not going to the biggest race in the world , Baffert needs them more than they need him .
@@johnvitelli3862 No, they go to the Derby for the Derby. But he has fans and the name, for more casual racing fans, means something. That's really my point. Thanks!
always good to hear Steves opinion . great interview .
He's the best. Looking forward to his show on Saturday!
SierraLeone Honor Marie Catching Freedom Fireceness
one more thing is track condition rain is expected to be heavy Saturday morning into early afternoon
Widely-spread showers, actually. Nothing heavy and 40%.
Churchill Downs does not need crocked Bob Baffert
@Sierra Leone is coming like a freight train! It’s reminds me of Forego!
Would be nice to finally have a Bluegrass winner take the roses.
I'm using Fierceness and Just a Touch
Love it!
Steve Byk is the best in the business.
He really is. We appreciate the time he spent with us during such a busy week.
Fierceness, Catching Freedom, Resilience🐎🐎🐎...
Hard to argue that!
The one hole was probably good for Dornoch not that I think he will win but that’s not hurting him, I think he will fade badly late in race.
Good thought.
Great Analysis

It really should be a great race with this field.
West Saratoga. Anything is possible, the song> the impossible dream
More experts who fail including the guru Andy Beyer! You never win races on paper.
That's funny analysis about Baffert, because the race has became about Baffert , or you wouldn't be talking about him.
Sierra Leone
Great horse. We'll see how he runs!
SL is like a freight train! Reminds me of Forego!
Baffert deserves everything he got!!
Ok Karen

No, no one is bigger than the Derby. At the same time, he is a big name and brings people in. Whether some like him or not.
@@SportsnautGully there is no way people are going to the derby to see Baffert no shot

Baffert is a disgrace to racing - and sport in general. He betrayed the game that made his name. To believe otherwise is asinine.
White hair Bob is lucky he did not get the " Rick Dutrow treatment ".
