Does anyone know if anyone decent is going to the Arkansas Derby? I am really surprised that Pletcher would not send Any Given Saturday to Arkansas instead of putting him in the Bluegrass.

Very good point. I would also agree with you as well.

Pletcher already knows that AGS loves the poly at Keeneland. Watch the move he makes on the turn in his allowance win there.

The Wood is free money for any of these that can really run. There isn't anybody top flight pointing for it.

I thought Blue Grass. But I guess that would make sense with Tagg, and he's proven over the Aqu strip.

I thought Circular Quay was goin to Ark???

Lexington should been a good race when all is said and done due to the fact of graded earnings. You should have a full field trying to get some more cash so they dont have to sweat getting in.


Also Sedgefield should be headed to the Bluegrass and if he runs high-- KY Derby for a Turf horse

All you have to do is beat Circular Quay and Nobiz, and you get all the "free money" you can count. It's the SA Derby that looks light.

Maybe you should read through the whole thread before responding next time.
This was NOT the case before (Nobiz was a possible but CQ was considering Arkansas.)
