Thing is though, Baffert might have several of the horses and if he won, his horse will not be going to the Derby because his horses will be banned for a while. That is what happened with Muth, the Oaklawn winner.

Cal, you might enjoy reading this article about Muth. His owners haven't given up on his Derby opportunity and have filed suit to try to permit it:

I just saw that on DRF. Considering how slow that courts are you have to wonder whether they will even be heard before the first Saturday in May.

I was looking for the tri that RQ alluded to, but didn't see anything about that.
Not listed as a bet allowed on DRF listing of entries. Oh, sorry, didn't see your post on that wager.

Saturday the venue will be Keenland races 2 thru 11 followed by the Wood Memorial from Aqueduct and then the Santa Anita Derby. Point picks should be complete by 1:32 the scheduled post for race 2 and if you choose to wager on race 1 in the ROI the post time is 1. If Joly would be so kind to post the threads it would be appreciated.

I'll be glad to RQ. Looking forward to the races also. Nothing in racing is more beautiful than Keeneland in the springtime.

I'd like to add a caveat to anyone who wants to play the Big 3 Pick 3 as part of the ROI. So that there is no confusion about your wager, it would be prudent to specify the race or track that each leg covers, for example:

$3 Big 3 Pick 3: Wood: 1,2,3; Blue Grass: 4,5,6; SA Derby: 2,5
