I wish reporters could actually ask trainers questions like why hasn’t he breezed in 17 days if he’s doing super, but that’s a whole other conversation.

If he’s really doing super and they are purposely avoiding a triple crown race where he’s second choice at worst...it makes no sense. Especially with a horse who has made 3 lifetime starts midway through his 3 year old season.
Hearing that Maxfield is out.

Marty McGee ~ @DRFMcGee: Maxfield is OUT of the #KyDerby after suffering a non-life-threatening condylar fracture of his right front cannon bone following a breeze at #Keeneland, per @brenpwalsh and Jimmy Bell of @godolphin. Colt to undergo surgery with Dr. Larry Bramlage today. Walsh: "Devastating."

They should call it the Wood at Belmont, and make the Belmont later in the year.
