Considering the resumes of the supposed contenders there are quite a few races. What of Calebs Posse wins the Cigar and Malibu? What if Game on Dude wins the Clark?

Yes good point I guess. Its a Grade 2 now? I guess a horse like Flat Out will run there.... I think its safe to question if hes not a fan of Churchill for some reasson. I guess if Baffert sent Game On Dude and he won, then he could win it.

give it to union rags!


j/k. but i think he covered more ground today than drosselmeyer....

i think tizway should be considered. too bad he couldn't run today.

Here's my take. I think Game On Dude is likely to win.

Here's the one's that might beat him and reasons they won't.

My Miss Aurelia. Can't give it to a 2yo filly.

Union Rags. Best threat "IF" he had won. He didn't.

Hansen. No

Drosselmeyer. Only one Graded win won't do it. Might have if Game On Dude had finished far back.

HDG. Beat boys only once.

Flat Out. Couldn't beat the filly. Only 1 Grade 1.

Animal Kingdom, Stay Thirsty, Shackleford. None did enough and beat up on each other.

Turf horses Cape Blanco & Acclamation. Both skipped the BC. No No if you want an eclipse.

Tizway too didn't run in the BC. Can't win.

Game On Dude. Won 2 Grade 1's The Big Cap and the Goodwood. 2nd in the Breeders Cup Classic and Hollywood Gold Cup.

Winner winner.

Zenyatta didn't even beat the boys and she got it. Obviously she would get my vote.

I think hes making sense. His argument is all facts.

Hansen could run in the Cashcall Futurity. If he wins that then he could make a case however weak it may be. Of course they probably have already started worrying about a race they have no chance of winning 6 months from now.

If it is based on last year's criteria, then Game on Dude.
