Looks like you may need 250k to get in safely this year.
I think a 2-3 year ago 150k was enough.

It always depends if something odd happens in a race like the Bluegrass or Lexington, but looking at the list above, there's probably 3 horses that are currently in the top 10 and a few more in the top 20 that won't end up going to the derby.

Maybe more than $250 k. The Louisiana Derby purse needs to be lowered! Pants On Fire? Come on, do we have to see this horse take up a space in the gate?

It's been two weeks since Uncle Mo worked out on 3/12. Nothing since.

How long does Pletcher usually to work his horses after an afternoon appearance?

What does Uncle Mo's facebook page say about his training schedule?

After my wagers today (I knew it was over when Master of Hounds lost the headbob), I sure like the sound of a good DT Facebook whore

He might be busy preparing for the inevitable skirmish with TFM over Beyer figures for some of the lightly-raced 3yos such as Bind.

From Meydan to the 4th at Penn National - I probably bet about 35 races today at 8 different tracks... and have looked at and passed on about another 40 or so races.
