Too early in the week to talk about the Preakness?

Justify was the first horse that didn't race as a 2-year-old to win the Kentucky Derby since Apollo won in 1882.

Did you not watch the derby?

Used to go when I lived in DC, that shite was fun. This was in the early aughts they’ve since “cleaned” it up though.

As long as the track isn't a conveyor belt like the derby is, favorite is very vulnerable.

The #5 who ran a bang up 3rd, is sitting on a big race or a huge bounce. He runs his race he goes right by. He was charging like a bad out of hell, then he was spinning his wheels at the 1/16th to the wire. Track was a conveyor belt the last 1/16th. The favorite and the #6 were dead tired, and still no one caught either of them.

Have to see how the field lays out

It’s going to be another muddy mess

i have Fridays and Saturdays PP's


seeeek@charter.net if you want

I like Quip with the rest he's gotten since the Arkansas Derby. Bravazo wasn't on my radar after the LA derby, but surprised me in the Kentucky Derby.

I'm thinking I'll make 2 superfecta bets.

I am going 7/5/1,3,8 in the tri. I think Justify and Good Magic are guaranteed 1-2places

I used good magic because I liked how he was training into the derby. This time, not so much. He’s all front wheel drive which makes me think he may be a little sore somewhere behind. I’m probably not using him.
