This is more surprising than Prat getting off Rombauer.

Horse is tailor made for the Haskell. The Los Al Derby is the perfect opportunity to work him during the races to get back on track after that disastrous Derby.

Despite his equipment and gate woes, it's not like he wasn't a question mark beforehand with only 3 starts under his belt. And now he's going to try 12 furlongs?

That said, Commendable won the Belmont so there's always hope...

Midnight Bourbon is out.

Asmussen says since there are no "big races" after the Belmont until the Jim Dandy and Haskell, he probably won't reappear until then.

Didn't know Le Comte winners were so highly valued that they couldn't possibly start in races like the Dwyer, Pegasus, Long Branch, Matt Winn, or Los Alamitos Derby.

Don't know if it's because the connections wisened up or the horse is injured or the recent Parx barn raids, but this can only be counted as a blessing.

Wasn't sure how long they were going to lean on that overblown Remsen win as their passport to being an also-ran in the top 3yo stakes races. If he's still in training hopefully he gets a rerouted into a campaign that focuses on actually trying to win races.

I guess it's too late to cutback in the Mike Lee but there's always the NY Derby at Finger Lakes...

It was the logical progression to his Belmont odd-yssey.

Wintered in Dubai...

Worked 3 times in the span of a week leading up to the race...

Blackthroatedwind, I completely forgot about this. I'm so sorry. As a result, I added $50 on top of the original bet.
