Gotta go help a friend. Chat at you guys later!

My sentiments exactly. Being there today live -- like I was when PD won 3 years ago -- the horse looks ageless. He could very well win at CD. He was striding out at the wire after running into a wall. He had a lot of run left. It was a solid race, good fractions, good final time on the poly.

PD looked amazing today, just like at CD in the Foster - I was there for both, and both times he came barelling down the stretch with a great stride. Last time he hung when he got the lead, this time he couldn't make up the ground. But both times he kicked impressively and looked like the winner in the stretch. I cheer for him out of shock as if he's the winner. Hope he finishes top-3 in the Classic, I would love to see him keep in "his" top form...
