Love to hear Andy debate John White on the prospects of POTN in the Derby on ATR...

That's rarely one of my problems.

Hey, who knows, another three or four contenders drop out and he could be in the super.

I'm not sure Desert Party can't have an impact on this race. He's a better horse than Pioneer of the Nile.

Then again.....who isn't?

This is a very valid question. I think that Desert Party can have a impact on this race and with Q.R out, I think that Regal Ransom can have am impact as well.

Regal Ransom will, without a doubt in my mind, have an impact on the race in some form or fashion.

If you were a betting man ... Do you think a Gandolphin horse hits the Super?

Gandolphin? Wasn't he in Lord of the Rings?

At least he won't have trouble finding a jockey?

CNN Headline news just showed the crash!! It was awful!! That horse had a full head of steam built up,no rider and just plowed into the other.

If POTN doesn't win the Derby, he'll have his chance to do it (win a Triple Crown Race) in front of you at Big Sandy. Like father, like son. I like him better in the Belmont, anyways.

I already saw him crawl around the track a couple of times at Saratoga.

I am heartened to see you already hedging for this weekend.

Oh well that seals it.
The first two runs of his career come on turf in Aug 08.
Im sure nothing has changed.
If only Baffert could see the naked truth.

There's a lot of horses. Stuff happens. Belmont's a more fair race. The surface is (usually..lol.) more fair too.
