Hmmm...you're driving? Thanks, but I think I'll walk.

I don't have a whole lot to say here except that Bernardini beat horses he should have in this race, and his Preakness effort was obviously marred by the Barbaro incident. That's not even to mention the fact that Sweetnorthernsaint was probably as sore as can be coming into the Preakness. Anybody seen ol' Sweetnorthern lately? Eh?

I agree with Oracle's assessment that the big boys are probably going to take care of Bernardini with ease.

Flower Alley is looking and doing incredible right now.

Playing a bad football team will make a good team look great, and a great team unbeatable.
Running against whats left of this crop will certainly make a very good horse look unbeatable.
However any field in which hemingway's key is beaten a nose bob for the place cannot be taken seriously.
He should romp in the Travers, then he has to face Flower Alley and Invasor type stuff, good luck. Extended pace pressure and horses who will not submit to one move, the kind that will counterpunch and say you will have to run extended lights out to beat me to the wire. The kind that are battle hardened and seasoned. I'm not exactly sold that he can beat those kind of horses.

Isnt this the same kind of field we should be expecting in the Travers, save for Strong Contender and Bluegrass Cat, who arent exactly world beaters?

You think the finish will be that much more exciting in the Travers?

based on BGC's finish in the derby, you'd have to expect he'd be a better test of bernardini than what he met saturday. strong contender on the other hand...maybe not so much.

Tim I already conceded him the Travers, I don't think those two are much either.
