Futurity winner Hawk Mountain (second choice) is possibly going to be more of a middle-distance colt than a miler this year, and accordingly he is currently shorter in the betting for the Derby than for the 2,000 Guineas. However, he's top rated in this field and commands respect in terms of ability. HIDDEN FORCE has the makings of a potentially high-class performer over this trip and is taken to maintain his unbeaten record. The rematch between Avicenna and Hankelow could conceivably go either way.[Steve Boow]
