Larry Jones told ATRAB that Hard Spun was given the 6 weeks off before the Derby with the grind of the Triple Crown in mind. He also said his horse was doing better after the Derby than before (not sure if that is trainer BS, but why lie?). He also said they would not send and look for a stalking trip similar to his TP race.
I am looking for a Tampa Bay Derby'esque battle next Sat. between Hard Spun (playing the roll of AGS) and Street Sense. The only wild card is Curlin, the others are not fast enough.
