I thought I recalled Graham Motion saying that Crop Report was taking this path to the Belmont as well - any word Steve?

Now Titletown Five is in?

The Orb camp has got to be liking this - it could get "Derby ugly" up front again with Oxbow, Goldencents, T-Town 5, and even Govenor Charlie going at it.
Betcha Vyjack doesn't fly out the gates this time.

Love that Incognito is finally testing his class in the Peter Pan. They've been slow/cautious with this guy. He's ready to show what's he's made of.

Per Dave Grening, Normandy Invasion is out of the Preakness. "Running back in two weeks would be a mistake" said owner Rick Porter. Jim Dandy or Haskell is the next spot with the ultimate goal the Travers.

He should be well rested by then.

In Departing vs. Orb, not only do you have the Claiborne/Phipps/Janney angle, but you've got the Illinois Derby winner vs. the KY Derby winner who coincidentally had the most Derby points going into the race if memory serves. Like anybody, I want a TC winner and it's the right horse, breeding and connections for the history books, but if we sadly end up Crown-less for another year, it might have the positive effect of forcing them to put the Illinois Derby in the points system however much Churchill despises Hawthorne.
