DT: I mean, I hate to sound like a broken record, but Don't Get Mad did it. Could also serve as a prep for the Preakness is they decide to skip the Derby. And it's at CD, where he'll be.

Withers: Isn't this usually a small field though?

Lexington: Bigger field, and new surface.

I kinda understand your reasoning... but Dont get Mad didnt even hit the board. finished 4th as a big longshot (and I did pick him in a RTIP contest in my top 5). He isnt a good example. Dunkirk isnt running for 4th.

Dunkirk is going straight to the Super Derby (Sep. 19), with a prep in the Super Derby Prelude on Saturday, August 15. Todd will not be attending the Alabama at Saratoga that weekend and will instead enjoy a nice afternoon of racing from the Sky Room on the fourth floor of Louisiana Downs. If he's lucky, ntamm1215 will make a cameo handicapping appearance and give Todd some tips himself at no cost.
