See what the horse racing experts have to say about making Kentucky Derby bets on Colonel John:
"If this colt had a solid dirt start under his belt he'd probably be the pick," stated Kentucky Derby Bets Expert Anthony Stabile of VegasInsider.com. "And while he's trained very well since arriving in Kentucky, is ten days really enough to acclimate to the surface? I don't know. What I do know is this guy is easily the best California has to offer and is probably one of the best in this crop. He'll get a hot early pace to close into and is one of only a few I can actually see winning this thing. The second pick, I'll use him in all my exotic wagers (on top in some) and on all my Pick 3 and Pick 4 tickets."
“Breeding and course issues make me severely discount Colonel John's chances,” stated Gibbon Jockey Blog in their 2008 Kentucky Derby Contender Preview on Colonel John. “Oh, and I'm horribly biased against California horses. They seem to always be overrated, but that's my issue. The facts speak for themselves.”
