First Seattle, now all we need is rht10 to re-break his ban again and claim CC has no chance......then the TC would be a mere cinch.

Hopefully we'll see a full field, and hopefully a stretch drive for the ages between Chrome & Tonalist (and any other interested parties).

Gave himself a year ban if Untapable won the Oaks.

I have no idea about California Chrome but I don't think he can do it.

I wouldn't mind him winning either, but we are gamblers so I'm looking towards Danza or Wicked Strong. Tonalist has become the wiseguy horse

I thought Smarty was home free

It's kind of amazing two factions in horse racing that spent have over a billion dollars into winning one race and we have this cheap horse with unfashionable immediate breeding lines running for racing immortality in three weeks.

Would like to see him do it...he can do it...but so many have been in this spot and failed,hard to get my hopes up. He's my first big hope since smarty, have said that before.
I hope all gos well these next few weeks.

Same here. I lost a lot of faith when Smarty lost. Really, really hoping along with most everyone, but the hurt won't be there like it was with Smarty should he lose.

ya mean on that 15 minute stroll back to the winner's circle ? he could barely pick up his feet. That was a stunning victory today though.
