If you want a BIG story how about this from Brisnet:
The 1 1/2-mile "Test of Champions" could also feature another of Pletcher's runners in Grade 1 hero CIRCULAR QUAY (Thunder Gulch), who ran sixth in the Kentucky Derby and improved one spot to be fifth in the Preakness S. (G1).

The chestnut colt, who had jockey John Velazquez aboard for the first two legs of the Triple Crown, is not completely out of consideration despite the fact that his regular rider is scheduled to pilot Slew's Tizzy (Tiznow) in the Belmont. Pletcher's other go-to jockey, Garrett Gomez, is also already committed to ride Hard Spun (Danzig), something which isn't fazing the Eclipse Award-winning trainer.

"All that means is that those guys can't wait around long enough for somebody to make a decision," Pletcher said. "If (Circular Quay) runs, we'll get somebody on him."
