Hard Spun won for fun last year in this race; would be neat to see another story come out of the Lecomte.

Mad Flatter has looked pretty impressive in his few races. Not sure how I feel about his speed in here yet, but it's hard to argue with a horse who has done so little wrong and looked so good doing it.

Someone needs to tell the connections of mad flatter that it is a long year. Seems to be a colt with a bright future, but they're not all like T-bergs and lawyer ron that can run 14 times before the derby.
Besides, I don't think being out of a Honor Grades mare is going to be a benefit as the races get longer. We'll see.

Well he's hardly overraced as it stands now, though he will surely need a break at some point should he continue to run well enough to earn his way into the Derby.

I'm not jumping on his Derby bandwagon right now by any means, but I'm at least interested.

Think Macho Again could be a very good one.
