Any insight on the overly fast "stretch her legs out" Eight Belles work at Keeneland yesterday?? And if I am reading under the lines correctly, the plan is to enter her in both races, and they will scratch from one or the other depending on the KY Derby post potentially keeping someone out of the Derby?? Is that what's going on here?

Steve, the Denis report is great, but since you were there, do you have anything for the masses on Z Fortune? He also worked this morning at the Downs...

Nice pull Slot, suprised Steve didn't mention it.

50.1 work, slow, but probably what was asked of him given assmussen usually doesn't work very fast

Recall that Z Fortune ran a week ago Saturday... He was stretching his legs.

This was Denis of Cork's last serious effort before the Derby start, if there is going to be a Derby start, and since he didn't get a lot out of the Hawthorne visit, it was an important drill.

Seeing as how you can't spell his name right, why should I believe you know what you're talking about when it comes to "Denis" of Cork?

thamks for pointing that out, guess I always thought there were two n's in Dennis.

You shouldn't believe a thing, that was the point, trust your own ability.
