Marathon Method 2019 Derby
 
The fastest prep race occurred in the Sunland Derby, a grade 3 event. The mile time was 134.60 (in fifths) and Cutting Humor ran 5th - 4th -3rd to the stretch call being 1.75 - 1.50 -0 lengths behind at those calls. His 6F to finish split was 36.75. A slower pace would help him a bit; but I might defer on him being as it was only a grade 3 - but don't forget Mine that Bird came from there to win at boxcars.

Other than that the best prep mile time was the one Tacitus ran against - 135.40. His position and lengths back were 6-7-3; 10-8-2. his 6f to finish split was 37.13.

The pace of the race looks to be 47+/111+ and Maximum Security went wire to wire running a 136.0 and finished in 36.00. Omaha Beach and Game Winner can run with him and I would slightly favor Game Winner over Omaha.

Max, Game Winner and Cutting Humor are my win horses. OB, Cutting Humor and Long Range Toddy (136.40 - pos. 5-5-4; LB 1.75-1.75-1.0) are my place horses; and the deep closer is Code of Honor (136.80 - pos. 5-3-2, LB 8.50-4.0 - 0.5)

Tacitus coming from a 4-4-1, 8.5 - 7.5 - 0 run could get a piece as well.

Those are my facts, my bet awaits a few more days reflection and the race odds.

Good luck

Good luck Bill. I like Tacitus and Maximum Security of yours the best. But this one tough race.

Good luck

The Sunland mile time of 134.6 is fast and I expect some downward adjustment of that time due to its probably the fastest track that any entrant ran on prior to the Derby. That being said, the fastest mile by a Derby horse on the lead was 136.00. Cutting Humor closely pressed the Sunland splits as referenced above so allowing a one second adjustment (arbitrary) he should be near today's pace.

I think there is a price to be had, so Maximum Security, Game winner and Cutting Humor are my best bets.

Sorry about Maximum
The numbers were correct so don't change

Strange
 
The stewards didn't see a thing so 2nd place Jockey objected. Then winner is placed 17th. Where were the stewards the first time around? Usually when a jockey objection is alloed, the 1st and 2nd places are reversed. But winner was placed 17th and stewards didn't see a thing first ime around.
Strangest DQ I've ever seen.
