In the Travers he caught the big horse while stretching and picking up MAJOR weight and it was a very humid day. Shipped to CD, then another humid day in Shreveport took a bunch out of him. He has a good chance to get an eclipse this year although he looks plenty short Saturday. BBB

Have you ever been right before a race?

Our enlightened racing brethren have already put down a couple thousand dollars on Pyro, making him the 2nd fav among individual interests. I guess they couldn't wait 2 days to see how he does on Saturday.

Derby fever I guess. I'm not big into the future bets anyway, but why not wait until he at least runs? Or better yet, on Sunday when it's much closer to the final odds. And I see War Pass is 3-1?(it's early, I know) Crazy, he'll probably be at least that on derby day (assuming he makes it there.)


As the Wallace Shawn character (a black jack dealer) said in the Vegas Vacation movie (paraphrasing here), " why don't we just go out back, I'll kick you in the nuts, take half your money and we'll call it a day?"
