I gave him a long look before the Derby, but didn't like the way he was training and threw him out. This time around, I have a different concern: early on, I think GG will be moving faster than he's used to in order to keep close to the pace (which, after his Derby experience, I believe will be the gameplan of his connections), and he won't have the late kick that his backers are probably counting on. Just as Alex suffered when forced to deal with a quicker pace, GG won't look quite the same as he did in the Ill. Derby. My instincts tell me that the one horse who impressed most with his combination of early speed and determination to finish in the Derby is the one to play tomorrow: Closing Argument.<BR/>11Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
