ZJ's Double Derby Dozen 2011 - #4

OK-

Here is the latest version of ZJ's Double Derby Dozen 2011 - #4. We actually had some movement as I was impressed with a winner over the weekend and he replaced Jaycito on my list. Jaycito has yet to hit the track since the Breeders' Cup plus he has a lot to learn just to get there.

New on the list debuting at #5 is Break Up The Game from Shug McGauhey. By Bernardini out of Pennant Champion by Private Account - this colt showed tremendous talent debuting in the fall since typically Shug doesn't crank up his babies for their debuts. This colt will be heard from if he stays sound. Also new on the list after winning the Count Fleet stakes is Monzon. This gelded son of Thunder Gulch won with complete ease and authority and is now pointed to The Sam Davis stakes at Tampa Bay Downs.

So here we go - the DDD #4 -

1. TO HONOR AND SERVE - at Payson Park prepping for 3 yr old debut.

2. ROGUE ROMANCE - is in Florida as well prepping for return.

3. UNCLE MO - will only have two preps prior to the Derby.
