I just keep hoping for a field in the single digits. The biggest fields in any Triple Crown year were both 8 horses.

My tweets, (and some re-tweets of Welsch), from workout session this morning..

Steve Byk @Steve_Byk Tonalist & Life in Shambles 5f together for @clementstable @ 1:00.0 on various watches. Belmont starter good. Easy Goer starter very good.

Steve Byk @Steve_Byk Idyllic lead to Crown try peaks for California Chrome in :47.3 work (Outs :59.4, 1:12.4, 1:26.1, 1:40.0). Couldn't have gone easier, looked better. & Cal Chrome came through stretch - with wind at his back - to cheers from the 250+ that turned out. Fun atmosphere of anticipation @TheNYRA.

Steve Byk @Steve_Byk Waiting on Social Inclusion splits but Wood/Preakness show pony was going at a serious clip..

Mike Welsch @DRFWelsch Watches still cooling down after Social Inclusion goes 1/2 from 3/8's pole in :45.13(:33.44 opening 3F), out :57.57, 1:10.93. & Main track obviously lightning fast this a.m. Decision on Social Inclusion's Belmont status pending.

Mike Welsch @DRFWelsch Samraat breezes easy mile over dullish Aqueduct main in 147.43 dragged rider around to 1/4 pole came home in 24.49 out another 1/8 in 12.17.

I just saw CC's and Social Inclusion's works.

I thought CC looked great, then I watched Social Inclusion!

He did not look like a horse galloping out in 109.4.

That track must be facing downhill today.
