I would say 3 of those are highly unlikely to be in the classic, if any races at all.

The Super Bowl of horse racing if you will, richard

Should be quite a spectacle if the Racing Gods can deliver some decent weather in Louisville that weekend

Those preparing on the superior (synthetic) surfaces are clearly poised to give good accounts of themselves, in my estimation...

That's OK. There's no more room on the bandwagon anyway.

Don't know about that, Princess

RA fans have been awfully quiet so far this year

Think a lot of the weasels bailed after RA got ambushed by that synthetic-to-dirt goin' little z back in March...

Whatever you say Mr. Smooth. But, In my unapologetic opinion, true Rachel fans will remain her fans through thick and thin, and there still is no room on the bandwagon.

Looks like a great place to watch a race BUT they need to put mirrors between the spots you can actually see the race.

It was a very nice move with a strong double out.... the main track has been a bit dull and tiring the past several mornings...very few horses have been getting final quarters in under 25... the dull stretch makes the strong double out that much nicer.
