The best part was when Gourmet Dinner's connections said they arent even sure he wil run in the KY Derby. Of course he will cause they will sell him by then.

I just hope he can be compete and not get destroyed in the FL prep races

That is the bad thing,he will run in the Florida preps and get beat bad. Maybe the new owners will run him once and just sit him to the Derby??

Between him and Decisive Moment there are some owners who must be licking there chops to get a Derby Horse

It kind of stinks that horses who probably aren't any good basically have their Derby spot given to them if they can choose this one race to win or run well in.

Well Decisive Moment has no business in the Derby but atleast it looks like he can move the pace some what. Would rather have a horse that does that then another stalker or sprinter who dies at a mile.

Everyone knows the rules going in. Maybe you should wait before anointing every 2yo maiden winner the next Derby champion.

Excuse me? Why don't you point out to me where I've done what you're accusing me of? That will take you an awfully long time because I've never once done that.
