5/15 (PIM): Ike out; 12 for Preakness; Draw 5pm (HRTV)

What about Drosselmeyer?

Interesting to see if Winstar decides to run 2 in that race, or points Drosselmeyer elsewhere.

There's no Peter Pan this year, right? So..unless you go in the Dwyer, there's not a lot of options.

U would think ice box would be ideally suited to the belmont...

Guessing that Zito may run Jackson Bend in Preakness and put Ice Box in the Belmont. Ice Box is going to love that Belmont stretch. Won't get 11-1 on him in the Belmont.

Don't mean to burst your bubble but the stretch at Belmont is shorter than Churchill by nearly 150 feet. The turns at Belmont are what go on forever.

Now you have done it. My bubble is burst. I am so sad now. (I meant he will like the extra quarter mile.) Is that better?

Seems like he's the sucker horse now. That was a brutal trip and might take the starch out of him for a month or two. No way I take 3-1 or less on him in the Belmont.

Ya Ice Box will be the heavy fave at Belmont. The horse looked like he could run forever

DRF reported today that Drosselmeyer was likely for the Dwyer. Makes sense as no way Winstar wants one of their other horses to beat Super Saver in the Preakness.

Drosselmeyer and Turf Melody are drawn into the Dwyer
