I don't know, jury's still out on Keyed Entry. Going Wild was running in goofy sprints towards the end of last summer against horses who hadn't run in the Derby and the Preakness. I mean, seriously, what was it about last year's Derby that made his connections decide the Preakness was a good idea for Going Wild?

At least with Keyed Entry, they've given him a rest after that horrid stop job at the Derby.

If he's ready to run Friday, I'm surprised Godolphin didn't just toss him in the Travers.(not saying that would be wise, just saying I wouldn't have been surprised if they did)

Yes but Keyed Entry could have already won a grade 1 sprint by now. Or at least been competitive in one. No excuse for running him in the Derby. Poor form by the connections.

Coin Silver, Defer, High Finance, Aristocrat, and a few others all make appearances on Saturday.

i gotta agree. they just could not resist the KD fever. kinda like saying no to Ben and Jerry's peanut butter cup. pretty tough to do.

same thing for Sinister Minister. the connection succumbed to Derby Fever too.
