My current thinking holds that Diodoro or Asmussen have a better shot at an upset, if you can call it an upset. Whatever happened to the former's runner in the two races preceding the Derby was pretty much offset by his relatively good run at Churchill....if Mandaloun could get back on track in the Derby after a clunker (by whatever means necessary) so did Keepmeinmind.

And if my original read of Midnight Bourbon was correct, this one is only going to get better with age and experience (by whatever means necessary).

If you have any doubts about Robber-tino, check out his winning percentage. It's about twice as good as Shug or, for that matter, Sunny Jim Fitzsimmons and other legendary trainers.
