Gee, my $30 seat on the finish line is looking like the worst buy of the season now.

Really these talented 3 year olds have done enough.

I'm all for legalized wagering on the breeding season. I'll go into detail, if necessary.

BTW assures me that the listed noms are just those that aren't already nom'ed to the Florida Derby series. I donot know why they just listed the other noms and not the FL Derby ones who are automatically entered with them on one page. Confused me, but BTW says "Don't Worry" so I'm off the meds, Darn it

Pointed for the SA Derby still. He's staying in Cali apparently. Not sure if they'd choose to wait for the San Felipe, or look for a lesser prep before the SA Derby. Maybe they send him north for the El Camino Real?

His next race is undecided as far as I can tell.

yeah, the noms list for the Holy Bull on the GP site was the same way.. I'm think the fields will be larger than 4 horses.

Every single horse nominated to the Florida Derby is automatically nominated to all the preps. You'll see the same thing at Santa Anita where it appears only 10 horse are nominated to the Robert Lewis and none of the probables are included in those ten.

Speaking of Gulfstream and small fields, was it really necessary to card a $250,000 claiming race? The race drew 6 entrants; 2 Romans horses and 2 Orseno horses. Here's another idea: card another 35K claimer on the turf and watch it fill.....
