according to the bloodhorse magazine i got in the mail yesterday, pyro is being pointed to the haskell. of course that could change, but i would think after the belmont that other trainers won't be quite so antsy about facing big brown. he showed he was a mere mortal that day.

"pyro was coming off two extremely disappointing efforts for a top-class horse," said Asmussen, who will now point the colt toward the $200,000 Dwyer Stakes at Belmont Park as a prep for the $1 million Haskell Invitational...

that's from the bloodhorse magazine dated june 21.

i see that mrs.
but i read where steve said the dwyer might come up to fast, and he would then point to the jim dandy-travers....
i guess it does not matter... most ppl use the haskall as a prep for the travers, im sure we will see both of them in travers.

The horse didn't run disastrously at the Derby by any stretch; I don't think it's beyond the realm of possibility that Colonel John could run on dirt.

I think you're being just a lil bit ridiculous with the Big Brown trash talking.
