![]() i think he could possibly run 1-2 in the bluegrass which would give him enough for the derby

![]() well i read over a month ago the biancone was training him up to the bluegrass, and that would be his only prep for the derby, now i only posted this to see if anyone knew if that was true or not.... my reassons for him being able to possibly run 1-2 are, great connections, he loves poly, hes obviously very talented and his last race where he got beat he had problems, and stormello has ran huge since, biancone needs a derby horse. i mean there are alot of reassons why he could run big, he won first time out with alot of problems, then he beat notional so i think if he's healthy he has alot going for him, personally i wouldnt try to make the derby with him but thats just me

![]() the horse is also very well intended, has been pounded at the window everytime out including first time, and once again he has already beat notional

![]() What you have to remember is that he beat Notional on a surface that Notional obviously didn't like. Remember that they installed the synthetic surface into Hollywood Park. Notional is also a much better horse than he showed in the Futurity.
I like Belgravia a lot though. He has shown a lot of promise. I will have to see the field for either the Lane's End or the BG Stakes (whichever one he starts in) to see if I like him for either of those races or not. It will be really tough for him off of a layoff though. However, at this point, I can't like him for the Derby with the setbacks that he has experienced. |

![]() A Mr. Greeley out of a mare who won a stakes and 3 other races at stakes distances, but couldn't win a race of any kind at 8f+. Miler at best, more likely a one-turn miler. A horse like him MIGHT win a longer race on class and/or fitness, but he won't have a fitness edge with this kind of light schedule, and as I recall, he barely lasted over Dilemma , who didn't have the best of trips, in the Prevue, so I see no overwhelming class edge.

![]() [quote=DaHoss9698]Not really. My point was you have no idea who is going to be running so how can you project where he'll finish, weeks in advance. Sure he has shown some talent sprinting. But his race in the Futurity didn't exactly get the pulse r
based off of what i have seen, and read i am saying that i think he can run 1-2, biancone will have to have him cranked if not he could actually miss the derby because of graded earnings |
