On a more serious note, before we get too far ahead of ourselves, I am just hoping that this foot thing does not cause Justify to miss the Preakness. I take it that this is a lot less serious than what Classic Empire had last year?
The Todd Quad will not do any better than they've in the past. HEY TODD, IT'S QUALITY NOT QUANTITY . . . wake up. Try Bobbie's way for once. Thought D'Waye taught you better than that. And the Belmont is much closer to martini time than scrambled eggs and toast time.

Send all those suicide speedsters and they'll realize what speed and stamina together is when they look at his hind quarters at the wire, if they can see them at all. He's built (bred) to run like and Indy car. Only thing that will beat him is him, injury or a very bad ride . . . which Mike is capable of but I doubt it based on the greatness he's been on before.

Any updates on this?
