Injuries and defections always happen. Always. I expect A Little Warm to be in the gate on Derby Day as well.

Didn't Flying Private make the Derby gate somehow last year? Blech.

The last horse in was Nowhere to Hide with $55k...

I opined that Odysseus wasn't safe yet with $180k after the TB Derby and that still looks to be the case if he falters on the poly.

Hindsight is what it is, but I don't get why they wouldn't have sent him to Oaklawn.

Regardless, at least we have a couple remotely interesting betting races this weekend in so far as Derby preps go. Who was the last horse to win the Derby coming off a Blue Grass score?

Blue Grass win or Blue Grass race?

Street Sense won 3 years ago..
