If you talked to anybody who was at CD last year, they all claimed Ice Box looked like he was about to fall apart at any moment. I suppose they were right, just off by a couple races.

Bad step this morning & general health of the horse....He is my pick at this point, and these are not facts....that is why I am asking from reliable sources.

John.. I'm sorry. That's totally false. Ice Box was jumping out of skin leading up to the race last year and anyone who listened to me or any ATR broadcast the 2 weeks leading up were aware of that.

Maybe I was talking to the wrong people then. I chatted on Derby morning with a few folks I knew had been on the grounds all week, and they thought Ice Box was being held together with tape and string. In any event, they were wrong.

They're fueled by Zito having stayed at Palm Meadows and him having just the two works since FL Derby. While he looks terrific physically, he isn't a pretty mover on track, which provides more fodder for the rumor mill. Zito and his team are placid and confident of him running well, and he certainly wouldn't be the first crabby-going horse to win the Derby.
