    Anyone? Renegade would be my choice if he wasn’t in the dreaded 1 post, but Commandment is my top pick. I also like Golden Tempo as a longshot for his pedigree + connections (Phipps Stable), he’s bred to run all day long.

    Backed both Japanese runners (Danon Bourbon and Wonder Dean) at 12/1 and 33/1 WIN only.

    Cracking race and what a great shout Miss Woodford: you had the first two home at 23/1 and 5/1. Nice one

    “I also like Golden Tempo as a longshot”.

    Great tipping, MW. I only wish I had taken your advice!

    The winner has come from so far back, I can only assume the pace up front has collapsed in the last furlong.

    It is a good news story for racing due to the first woman to train a Kentucky Derby winner.

    The Phipps Stable colours, which to my eye looked like a black jacket with a red cap, made me think of all the Jim Joel horses on this side of the Atlantic from days gone by.

    Well how about that? :yahoo: That classic Phipps breeding comes through https://www.pedigreequery.com/golden+tempo3. Renegade did very well to make it through all that jostling at the start but he had every opportunity to pass Golden Tempo down the stretch and couldn’t get there.
