Ditto. If SS wins the Preakness I would guess he will face 4, maybe 5 horses in the Belmont. By the way he has been installed as 4/6 odds to win the TC.

Do you think really they will give the TC to him by starting 4 or 5? Smarty had the fight of his life(besides his ride) against the vultures trying to pick him apart...ain't nothing free in this game. You maybe right but I just don't see it, 10+ in the gate. Who? Don't know, we have a month to find that out.

Pletcher should have a few -- Circular Quay, Any Given Saturday, and maybe Sam P. and Cowtown Cat -- from among his colts, and I wonder if Tabor wants to take a shot with Rags to Riches, given her breeding.

Thanks for the laugh.
