Looks like Adriano is headed to the Big One:

“I’m pretty sure we’re going to go for it after this – I don’t know why we wouldn’t,” Motion said. “Believe me, I want to win the Derby as much as anybody else does, but I don’t think it’s engraved in my mind that I’ve got to get there. I want to get there for the right reasons, and when we analyze it and we talk with Mr. Adam and with Edgar, I think it is the right thing to do at this point. That was depending upon what happened today, and I think it went well.”

Churchill Downs clockers caught Adriano in fractions of :13, :25.40, and :37.80 and the colt galloped out five furlongs in 1:03.40. Longley was timed in :50.40 for his four-furlong move. Adriano’s move ranked 29th among 42 at the distance.

“He went nice,” said Prado, one day after having won the Toyota Blue Grass Stakes (gr. I) aboard Monba. “He started nice and easy, and he finished good. When I called on him, he was there. Graham was happy and I was happy with him.”

Atoned to the Lexington Stakes?

Stakes winner and Grade 2-placed ATONED (Repent), fourth in the Illinois Derby (G2) most recently, worked four furlongs in :47 on Keeneland's Polytrack. The dark bay colt could show up next in Saturday's Lexington S. (G2), according to trainer Todd Pletcher, who said he needs to talk it over with owner Cot Campbell of Dogwood Stable.

This is confirmed now by Dogwood, via Haskin.

Kinda off topic but does anyone have a list of Derby winners from the posts they drew. I seen something about it before and I think post 7 (could be wrong) had the most winners. Thanks in advance
