CD's inclusion is pretty idiotic and irresponsible (most likely just an oversight), but it doesn't benefit them in any way. In all actuality, since it's a parimutuel wager, it gives a slight edge to anyone betting on any other horse in the field. CD doesn't keep the money - this isn't a vegas future - it'll be paid out to whoever bets on the winning entry. . .

They have until March 28th to late nominate him for $6,000 which I'm sure they'll do if he wins the Fountain of Youth and is entered in the Florida Derby. It's hardly a big deal that he isn't nominated. Last year Eight Belles and Recapturetheglory were late nominees and both wound up in the Derby top five.

Good point. . . still seems a little odd to me, though. . .

Actually - I retract my previous statements - they've made it known that he's not nominated. . .

Normally I print off the past performances of the top 30 or so horses at Brisnet. Right now I get an error that says I can't print them off. Does anyone have a link? Thanks.

I found the top 23 at the DRF.com site. Guess my Road to the Roses stable will come from those.
