Down to the Wire – Illinois Derby 2015 edition

This week on Down to the Wire @chare889 and I discuss the 2015  Illinois Derby, Whimsical Stakes from Woodbine and Elkhorn from Keeneland.  Biz the Nurse is the selection by Candice in the Elkhorn, while I like the class drop on Dynamic Sky. Pace will be the key to that race.  Unspurned is 6/1 morning line in the Whimsical.  The Illinois Derby shapes up as competitive Candice makes the case for Phenomenal Phoenix based on his dry track consistency.

Candice:

Elkhorn – Biz the Nurse

Whimsical – Executive Allure

Craig:

Whimsical – Unspurned
