First look with Baeza in the field..

Grande a SCR with bruised hoof.. 2-3 others may not make field as well..

Who else is on the ropes of not running?

I’ve seen speculation on X about a number of horses, including American Promise, Render Judgment, Coal Battle, and Owen Almighty. Probably others. Who knows what is legit until it becomes official though.

The speculation is totally 'legit'.. All the above mentioned runners are under close scrutiny. Owen Almighty the most vulnerable, Coal Battle next. Add Admire Daytona to the list too.
