I was wondering, is there still a $5 million bonus to any horse that sweeps the Southwest, Rebel, Arkansas Derby and Kentucky Derby? Of so, wouldn't both Secret Circle and Castaway be pointed back to the Rebel?
Also, wondering if Creative Cause will come right back in the San Felipe or wait for the SA Derby?

Csaba- FOY
Casual Trick-FOY
Dan and Sheila-Gotham
My Adonis- Gotham
Dullahan- Palm Beach then Bluegrass

yeah, cella did that in '04 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of oaklawn park.

he was going to put up the 5 million himself;not insure the potential payoff. when he saw smarty jones' last work before the derby, he called the insurance company!!

[Round Pen]

Steve If everything goes alright were going to run Stealcase in the Gotham

Tom Albertrani reports that he is a work behind with Souper Speedy but hopes to have him ready for the Tampa Bay Derby 3/10..

Steve or anyone, any info on the status of Take Charge Indy? No works since the El Padrino race.

He could always change their mind, but he's not their only horse or first horse on the Derby trail, so the fever's tempered with a bit of wisdom. (PS. No pun intended, I swear.)
