You might get 2 to 1 on that bet.

Interesting....I like CQ and find it interesting Johnny V takes off King of the Roxy for him.
Hope the track is playing fair on Saturday, and we might have an interesting race after all.

Why would he possibly ride King of the Roxy over Circular Quay?

I reckon I'll be an idiot and bet him again.

Hope he pays me back all I lost on the derby.

I think Curlin will win the Preakness officially.

But when it comes time to lay the money down, I'll probably take Circular Quay out of stubborn-ness and bad betting habits.

Save your money, no way a horse with that frame runs back Mood, I also really don't believe that number he ran TG wise. While I agree that ground loss is an issue, I think that some numbers could be juiced with ground loss, on a limited basis, CQ's is one of them. There is absolutely no way, in my limited knowledge of TG and others, that SS was only ~4 lengths better then CQ on Derby Day, it was more like 10.

Only because I assume he committed to Team Valor. Not because he prefers the horse over CQ.
I'm sure the Kingoftheroxy connections would be fine with Gomez, but since Gomez has had past success riding CQ, maybe they just put him back up?

I would guess the decision is more Todd's or Coolmore's.

Honestly, does it matter who rides either horse? Hell, Mig deserves the mount on King of the Roxy, as he gave him a perfect ride in the Santa Anita Derby.

Yes he does, I am guessing that Mig had a two race committment and would have got the ride IF he ran in the Derby. T/F?

Who knows, he must feel that CP West is doing well and wants to take a shot.

What does that have to do with Circular Quay?

I know he's concerned about Chuck's diet. Could be Richard Simmons.
