I can't see how Liquidity can be considered, stamina is an issue with him.

NO--Teuf and Sedg both may get into the Derby NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

That is good, auto tossed and some moran's will be using them, both will be 99/1 though

teuflesberg has as much business running there as i would!

Well don't keep us in suspense.

i don't think i'd get enough of a weight break.

What you did not see is his race prior to the Florida Derby. He had even a worse trip and yet re-rallied to win it in style. In that ALW race at gulfstream he was bumped pretty good and shuffled from 5th to last at the half mile pole and made a nice rally weaving in-n-out to win it. That was the reason I made a huge win/place bet on him in the Florida Derby. He was tucked nicely inside and was waiting for some room he never could get. He still switched to the outside to make a nice effort to come third.

I haven't heard anything about him but I highly doubt Sedgefield goes. . . The connections have Dominican in for sure and they know he's got a much better chance than Sedge on dirt. . . Sedgefield's last start was very disappointing and it was on his best surface. . . Unfortunately I think Belgravia or Joe Got even could knock out Chelokee. . .

Is Jack Junior being pointed to the derby? I didn't think he was but thedowneyprofile.com still has him on their earnings list and they've been taking horses off that have been confirmed to be off the trail. . .

Hockey.

Don't think he is.. Meehan called him doubtful a few weeks ago..

ESPN said wildcrazyguy has 104,000 in earnings

Might want to add XCHANGER to the list.

I saw his win at Pimlico in the Tesio yesterday and he looked pretty sharp in getting it done. His owners want to go - Shuman, prior to yesterday, felt he was a cut below. The Tesio might have changed his mind, assuming the horse comes back from the race ok. I don't think the effort took anything out of him because he was an easy handride the last 1/8th.

If Ramon is available to ride, I think you'll see him the first Sat in May.

You know ,Steve, I have always been a large admirer of your fine work.





What are your thoughts regarding the 8 weeks for OClay and in general...SamP?..... and also if you have any feelings on lol lol lol.


Thanks in advance.

If Xchanger goes in the Derby it will be the owners forcing it and over the objections of Shuman. Here he is Friday with me on ATRAB:

And Dominguez has committed to Pletcher on Sam P.

Steve?

Steve is busy, so i'll answer about "lol lol lol" I saw him work the other day. looked GREAT on the track. Worked a mile in 1 minute 29 seconds flat in hand with his regular exercise rider G.F. Yokum, Jr. ( nickname GFY ) His coat was dappled, a fine animal indeed. The owners say they will skip the derby and train right up to the Breeder's Cup Classic where he should be installed as the 2:5 ML Favorite ahead of In- va - soooor.

Oh really?

Well what state and what county was this in?





And I just know you have the name of the sherrif there.
