From Colonial Downs for Virginia Derby weekend, James Scully and Ashley Anderson convene with guest Nick Tammaro to talk their best bets and fades of the week at Colonial and Gulfstream Park, plus their picks in the Virginia Oaks and Virginia Derby on the Road to the Kentucky Derby and Oaks. Graded stakes winner Getaway Car, for trainer Bob Baffert, is the headliner of the first-ever Kentucky Derby prep race in Virginia, and will clash with recent Brad Cox maiden winner Rapture. In the Virginia Oaks, Kenny McPeek has two entered, including morning-line favorite Gowells Delight, but a few darkhorses could play spoiler in the 50-point prep race.
