Just read this:
King of the Roxy trainer Todd Pletcher hinted Sunday he might have another horse for the 1 3-16-mile Preakness. Pletcher, who went 0-for-5 in the Derby to run his record in Triple Crown races to 0-for-26, would not say which 3-year-old he was considering. Any thoughts? |

Edge has become Vince's favorite, much like his son-in-law Triple HHH... so it was no surprise that Edge gets the belt. Mr.Kennedy was supposed to have a "major" injury...but it wasn't as bad as they thought. The "Taker" though, will be MIA for several months. It's too bad also that Chelokee will be in the "Barbaro" Stakes instead of the Preakness... he was the only real threat to the Derby Top "3".

I still like the Met Mile idea a little bit for CQ, but I'll take anything to make the Preakness a little more interesting than it currently looks on paper. |

I hope CQ goes, although I sort of doubt it at this point. That would make it a much more interesting race.
With Hard Spun, that ridiculous Lukas horse, and the other speed....it seems like it would be a good fit for Quay. |

Any Given Saturday?
Maybe Pletcher feels like he didn't take enough of my money Derby Day! |

Quick look at the Belmont Work Tab:
Saturday: King of the Roxy: 6F in 1:14:92 (1/2). Looks like he worked in company with Sunriver, who was clocked at the same distance and time. Soaring By: 5F in 1:01:02 (3/13) Looks like a bunch more Pletcher's worked Sunday, but none of the Derby 5. Are they all at Belmont? |

From Brisnet.com
Hutcheson S. (G2) hero and Santa Anita Derby (G1) runner-up Kingoftheroxy, who worked six furlongs in 1:14 4/5 on Saturday, went straight back to the track on Sunday. The Team Valor colorbearer galloped 1 1/2 miles at Belmont Park, with Pletcher praising his appearance as "outstanding." "We'll just basically gallop up to the race," he added. When asked if Kingoftheroxy would be his only starter in Preakness 132, Pletcher didn't give a categorical answer. "That's my decision as of this moment," the three-time Eclipse Award winner said. In response to the inevitable follow-up question, whether that was subject to change, Pletcher said, "Always." Pletcher would not be drawn into naming his second possible entrant, saying only that the decision would be made on Wednesday. |

wonder why he's being so coy about it.
