I have a pool 1 future bet @47-1. Any thoughts on baffert scratching from a bad post and heading to sunland the next week and try for the 50 points there?

not to mention the 800k purse

First of all he has a lot of speed so the post probably isn\'t the big factor, second Baffert usually doesn\'t save ground, third Sunland won\'t be that easy this year, fourth if he does that he\'s giving himself only one shot for points. This way he comes back in the Arkansas Derby if he wants.

well, I figured the arkansas derby was in the cards if he doesnt win...not knowing who is entered or even considering sunland, just seems like a potentially easier spot...not to mention I think sunland derby all carry 122....my selfish reasons want him to make it to louisville.

From what I\'ve heard the Sunland field is looking like:
Overanalyze
Titletown Five
Shaking it Up
Just win Baby
Dry Summer (won prep)
Persuasive Paul
Show Some Magic
Storm Driver

dont know the numbers, but at equal weights, may be easier spot
