Why not ? I have read some more incredibly stupid things on this board in the past. I am now going to fit right in and post that I feel that Chocolate Candy is gonna be the speed of the derby.

I also expect Gary Richards to win the jock title at Sartoga this summer.

No dumbass. Pletcher announced tonight that he was skipping the Derby and pointing him towards The Hirsch Jacobs at Pimlico instead.

I understand.

I was looking things over & alot of speed remains, even w/o OF.
Papa Clem likes the lead, but I doubt that a jockey as smart as Bejarano would want that. There are certainly a number of horses who could "inherit" the lead, including Quality Road, Friesan Fire, I Want Revenge, Musket Man. Maybe Desert Party.
Does anyone know if the Euros are coming?

The horse that impressed me the most today was Hold Me Back, closing strongly.

I'd say we have a good crop of 3yos. It's gonna be a hard decision.

Exactly. I think Dunkirk will run in the HJ. Then the Canterbury Derby. Followed by a nice rest after all of his races last year/this year. Then probably a fall campaign beginning at Pomona Fair. Then close the year out running in Evangeline Mile.
