Arkansas Derby champ Renegade leads at 4-1 morning line odds, but that number one post-position is a curse no winner since Ferdinand back in. 1986. Meanwhile, the Florida Derby crew brings heat. Commandment at 6-1, the Puma at 10-1, and Chief Wallaby at 8-1 all-drying buzz. Add further ado at 6-1, who crushed the Bluegrass Stakes by 11 links at Keenland. Experts across the board see long shots shaking things up, like emerging market at 15-1, with just two starts under trainer Chad Brown, or Potente at 20-1, as Bob Bafford's big hope after running second in the Santa Anita Derby. Panel picks split heavy on emerging market for his raw talent and closing style, while Commandment, the Puma, Chief Wallaby, and further auto get love.
