Wow --- can't wait to see the field/post positions!!
Good Samaritan's effort in the Jim Dandy almost has to be upgraded due to how the track has played so far this meet. He looked great in the stretch despite the bias. That said, he definitely has that "last time was THE time to have him" feel about him, something along the lines of what Andy S likes to say. Man, there's a few horses on this list that look like they could play the role of Arrogate last year and pull off an upset. McCraken, Pavel to name a couple. Not sure what to think of Tapwrit being trained up to this race. West Coast & Girvin are two that will be bet heavily off their last races, imo, but ya never know! The one thing that I DO know is that 3 yr old honors are still highly up for grabs! Can't wait to see how this one shakes out!

Two week turn around is probably not ideal for Oscar Performance.

I know, of the horses who will be bet, who the biggest bet against is for me... Good Samaritan.

i remember seeing Whitmore run earlier this meet at Sar and thought that he for sure would run in the Kings Bishop?? . Any word on what he has planned next?

Kentucky Derby II
minus the fluff Tapwrit, the fav, lost at SAR before, doubt he has a win here, whereas, Good Samaritan, third in the BCJ Turf - 2016, has all the pedigree he needs to take this years eclipse. Status: Active Owner(s): WinStar Farm LLC - China Horse Club International Ltd. Trainer: William I. Mott Bred: Kentucky (USA) by WinStar Farm LLC Pedigree: Harlan's Holiday - Pull Dancer by Pulpit(sire of Tapit) The $1.25 million Travers Stakes on Aug. 26, is expected to attract Always Dreaming, Cloud Computing, Belmont Stakes winner Tapwrit. If all three horses run in Midsummer Derby, it would mark the first time that's happened since Gato del Sol, Aloma's Ruler and Conquistador Cielo dueled in the 1982 Travers, won by Runaway Groom in a surprise. might as well start painting that canoe white and blue for Winstar |

Possibly the Delmar Futurity. Distance should be perfect for him.
