She was not a happy Filly today....

Mor Spirit is a very nice sort,he's obviously improving.
Madefromlucky washed out pretty good today,would expect a better race next time.

Simply put.......which Pletcher is Javier going to commit to for the Derby ?
It looks like Todd is going to have at least three for the Derby..........perhaps more.
And since the Wood/Bluegrass are no longer Gr. 1's,aren't the odds around 1-9 that Todd ships one of his 3yo's out West to the projected very light in talent(unless Unique Bella shows up) SA Derby ?

Point one. There is nothing to understand. Most jockies are idiots.

Point two. It's weak everywhere, not just in California.
