Could have some interesting new shooters in the Preakness. Owendale looked good today. And I'd like to see Bourbon War in a genuine race.

I’m skeptical of the overall talent level in the Lexington. Owendale ran a nice race but none of the horses close to a pretty modest pace were able to finish particularly well.

Oy vey. First, it shows that he’s 100% sound. And he’s wasn’t ‘uneasy’ at all, nor was he asked for anything by Gaffallione.

I've never been a big fan and tried beating him when hes been short prices, but he could be a use now at around 20-1.

Hmm. Is Baffert that down on Van Dyke after the Rebel loss? Irad may be the better jockey...I don’t know...but I didn’t think Baffert teamed up with the Ortiz brothers too often.
