A little tangent on Square Eddie...would it be so wrong to sneak an allowance into this horse before the Derby or something? Honestly, what are those people thinking?

eight belles didn't come in off seven weeks rest either. it's the two together i don't like.

Friesan Fire - wish he would have had a prep. Don't understand the thinking. I guess it is vogue to run fresh. Eight Belles 8.5f prep. - should have told them a couple things. Apparently it only told them that if it weren't for Big Brown they had a winner.

Old Fashion - only if the Derby is completely void of all other speed and then it is still a question mark.

Square Eddie is nominated for the Queen's Plate
maybe he should pass on the Ky Derby and try the Canadian Derby

Speaking of War Emblem, from a pace perspective I would love to see Old Fashioned try the derby. At most he will ensure a honest pace.
