Exhale has been dropped from Derby Watch.

Not sure. He worked 6 furlongs in 1:13:00 (2/19). I woulnd't consider that a bad work.

Sounds like a horse I liked named Cindago, what....

I'm trying to find out. No luck as of yet though. As said in the article Sadler hasn't got back with the DRF on what Exhale's issue(s) is/are. He's had a couple of "minor" ankle problems before and I'm wondering if that isn't the problem again. I suspect we'll here something fairly soon as the Lewis Stakes rolls around and he's not in the picture for it.

He's undergoing surgery for a chip in his knee.
