Master of Hounds.

Aspy, they broke that horses leg.....and everyone around here knows it. My uncle was farm manager there when the Polish guy bought it, and I used to go to the cemetery there all the time. Really cool place.

I know, but I don't know as much about it as I should. Didn't know he couldn't be sold and didn't know his policy was about to run out.

You hear about moh studly problems today?

apparently they keep the boys and girls very separate over there and he lost his shite when fillies were around. Poor guy :(

Don't rembet where, either drf or bloodhorse. From the time he got there til he went to the track he was acting super studish. They say he calmed down after working.

Poor thing wanted to get some

Can't blame him. Guess that's why Goldikova always beats the boys?

She doesn't always.

Just when it matters most. They seem worried about the next race

I don't know yet, I'm gonna study in the morning. AK would be running for the Triple Crown if the Preakness was a 1 1/4 mile track. I like AK with the added distance. Shackleford will fade in the stretch... Book it

I think Nehro is gonna be in the money if nit win it. Asmussen is going with Nehro over Astrology, so Belmount must be his type of race. I also think Brilliant Speed is going to contend as well. I'm thinking of going with a SF with AK, MOH, Nehro, and Brilliant Speed.

i'm liking moh a little better here than the derby, i must admit.

me too.
I still like Nehro and Brillant Speed.
Mucho - lost another shoe at the preakness and came in looking thin at the Preakness. He's now lost a shoe in 2 of his last three.
Shackleford is out IMO.
AK can be in it, but i see third at best for him

Told the boy about the bloodhorse story on isn't he perfect's trainer. The guy is from guyana, and boy's dad is from Guyana. Don't think the horse has a shot, but still a pretty good story

how close early do you see prime cut? I'm trying to figure out if anyone is stupid enough to go early with shack. I'll probably decide with 5 mtp like last race

i think prime cut runs with shack out of the gate. Neither one will make the distance
