I think Durkin was just as shocked as anybody and probably didn't think he even had to call that name.

This proved one thing to me, I hope IWR and Quality Road get into the Preakness because I don't want anyone out of this race. What happened to FF? Stopped badly.

IWR is done IMO, the other needs months off probably.

they already said a few days ago that the preakness won't happen for QR. and, depending on what they find with revenge, i don't see him making it in two weeks with heat in his ankle today.

Durkin didn't see this horse until he was 5 lengths in front.Very poor job.And to me POTN and the others looked like a pack of tired out dogs.Too bad for the winning connections this horse is a gelding,but at least he has a good chance to keep racing instead of being retired to stud.Goodie for us!!

Interesting notice he was 4/6 on polytrack and 0/2 on dirt until today with a previous lifetime best beyer of only 81. How's that for confounding stats? How did he only go off at 50/1? You can't always count on stats, beyers, historical angles. Duh?
