Pimlico Ques

Has anyone run or trained over Pimlico track this year beside Xchanger??

[tanner12oz]

the pimlico meet is down to about 3 days now so i doubt it

no but hard spun seems to like every track that is very similar to pimlico so the trainer thinks he'll do very well next weekend.

toothlessbird should like the tight turns as well, not sure if hes ever worked on pimlico.

I know Hard Spun loves the track. Read 3 articles and each has Jones saying Hard Spun cant lose!!!

Says he is going to run the same exact race as the Derby and that no one will be able to pass him this time. Loves the feel of the dirt of there and the decrease in distance will be even better

So what type odds you think he will go off at?? 5/1?

[Skip away]

Hard Spun will be about 5/2 given Curlin is out now.
Thinking :
Street Sense 4/5
Hard Spun 5/2
Flying First Class 6/1?

Chelokee will take a lot of $$$

Where's it reported that Curlin is out?

[tycharles01]

Curlin's out???

If that is the case might see some more of the Derby horses enter

A firm decision on the Preakness status of Curlin will not be made until later in the week, trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday from Churchill Downs. Asmussen said he wants to see how Curlin acts when he goes back to the track to train later in the week. If Curlin goes to the Preakness, he would fly with Street Sense from Kentucky on May 16.

that's from drf....

I heard from the inside that the decision has already been made on Curlin. It will be written in the drf tomorrow. Toothlessbird and First Class Flying will be the ones challenging Hard Spun for the early lead.
