ummm... Vicar isn't in trouble, but Cairo Prince is. I thought without looking at the standings he'd eek in... He's f'd with all those horse yet to run the next 2 weekends. Would have to take some big flops and defections on top of it.

These are fragile horses. I have to think a couple of them get injured (not that I wish that).

after Louisiana Derby disaster, an Evangeline Downs allowance race...

Tonalist NO go for Wood.. Possible lung infection.

Bayern to the Ark Derby
Hoppetunity to the SA Derby
per Steve Andersen - DRF

Rosario will ride Tapiture in the Ark Derby, abandons Strong Mandate
per Jay Privman - DRF

Too bad, as I thought he might be an interesting player in the Wood.
Not sure how long it will take to clear up the lung infection (he's nominated to the Bluegrass too), but it never felt like these connections had Derby fever with Tonalist anyway.
Probably not a bad idea to continue taking their time with him.

I know Rosario is the best and all, but that sucks for Santana who's done nothing wrong on this horse.

Separation from the things said in the PETA video.

10 confirmed now for Wood Memorial..

Effinex (D. Smith/R. Montanez)
Harpoon (T. Pletcher/J. Velazquez)
Kristo (J. Sadler/M. Garcia)
Los Borrachos (B. Mott/C. Velasquez)
Noble Moon (L. Gyarmati/I. Ortiz Jr.)
Samraat (R. Violette/J. Ortiz)
Schivarelli (E. Kenneally/J. Castellano)
Social Inclusion (M. Azpurua/L. Contreras)
Uncle Sigh (G. Contessa/C. Nakatani)
Wicked Strong (J. Jerkens/R. Maragh)

Looks like 8 for Santa Anita Derby..

Candy Boy (Sadler)
California Chrome (Sherman)
Schoolofhardrocks (Hofmans)
Hoppertunity (Baffert)
The Admiral (Baffert)
Big Tire (Glatt)
Dublin Up (P. Miller)
Friendswith K Mill (O'Neill)
Rprettyboyfloyd (Breuer)

I know its not a derby trail race, but is Sadler running Kobe's Back in the Bayshore?
Thanks Steve...

Yes.. Made the trip with Kristo.

Anyone have Sadler's stats shipping horses outside of California the last few years. Seems like they always run poorly.

Last horse I remember him winning with was Line of Davis in the AK Derby, but assume there may have been one or two others since then.

Santana is a nice everyday jock, but if you have a chance to get Rosario, which possibly came with a Derby commitment, there's no question what you do.

In all seriousness I think they were going to make a switch anyways, even if they couldn't get Rosario.

I was asking because Im excited to bet against him.....
