So far the signals from the Baffert camp have been positive. Medina Spirit is still in Louisville along with Concert Tour. I think that CT will work on Sunday after which final decisions will be made. It seems likely that both could run. To me it would be a close call as to which one might be the favorite.

Entries will be drawn on Monday. There will probably be a number of additions and defections between now and then, including the ML fav in the Peter Pan who could be one of two Chad Brown entrants.
