Still think Colonel John can rebound after a bad start at the derby

Harlem Rocker, Unbridled's Heart and Biker Boy.

Anyone, other than them, and aside from Big Brown and Casino Drive ( maybe ), that has run this year is a joke.

Maybe sprinting. Let's see him run on dirt. He's seems pretty good I guess.

He won today (finally and no I'm not redboarding cause I didn't play it) at Keeneland.

Ummm, not exactly where i thought he'd be by now but hey..... since it might not happen for another year or so? Cheers to him.

I think Lieutenant Ron will be the top 3yr old if Big Brown or Casino Drive falter or just retire. It is hard to fall in love with a graeme hall but kiaran mclaughlin seems to think he is his best horse since Invasor.

He's obviously very talented but all things considered I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for him to put together a string of races. However, you are definitely right that he belongs on any list of the possible 3YO stars of the second half of the season.

out of all the west coast-based horses, I thought Crown of Thorns was the best out there. Sadly, I don't think he'll be back until later in the year.

He's injured and who knows if and when he will run again.
