I just can't figure why Romans didn't run News Pending in the Spiral.
Especially, after a glance at the earnings list.

5 Wrote (IRE) Aidan O'Brien $556,630
Considering the fair showing by Master Of Hounds in last year's Kentucky Derby following a strong effort in the UAE Derby, I would anticipate that Wrote would be under serious consideration for this year's race with a similar effort.

Though his pedigree is all turf up close, he is inbred to the great Claiborne broodmare Special, who counts horses like Sadler's Wells, Nureyev, Archipenko, Corinthian, Numerous, Cease, and Blame among her descendants.

Also in the Dubai race is Daddy Long Legs, one of only 3 horses of 13 from the BC Juvenile (the other are stablemate Crusade and Fort Loudon) who have not at least placed in a significant prep race for the Kentucky Derby.

The reason Contreras wouldn't get off Prospective is because of who trains him.

Been reported Currency Swap,Trinniberg,Our Entourage to Illinois- I like the Trinniberg to Illinois Derby idea tho,does 2 things #1 Will see if he can get the distance? #2 Even if he finishes 3rd or 4th he will get enough cash to put him over 200,000

Holy Candy to either Blue Grass or SA Derby

I love when the owners get involved where to ship there horse. Bodemeister runs in the SA Derby and prolly an easy 1,2 or 3-Zayat wants to ship him to NY to run vs Alpha,Gemologist and ???

Trinniberg has no chance in the Derby no matter what his earnings. They should keep him sprinting.

Ya I agree-should be going in the Bayshore but least this way we know if he can get the distance or not. If he ran in it he would have probably have the earnings running 1m or less

Asmussen says he'll train Daddy Nose Best up to Derby.

Isn't He Clever apparently heading to Arky Derby.

First off let me apologize to Pat Byrne,I pissed on alot of his decisions this year(as to graded earnings) however there is no way that TCI can run that way in the Derby if he expects to do anything

Steve what is the chances that Reveron goes onto the Derby? I read a story that the reason why he passed on the TB Derby and ran in the FL Derby was because he can't travel well at all. They ran him in the Davis and ran a 3rd however he was goning crazy the whole time,how is he gonna be able to deal with all that stuff in KY??
