Feel free to add your knowledge or horses you are wondering about as well.

1. exhale
2. great hunter
3. spring at last
4. roman commander
5. notional?

George Washington...I know he's come back to the track & raced fairly recently, but what are his plans for the rest of the year?

He's possible to race Saturday week in the Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown. If he skips that, he probably wait for the QE II at Ascot, a race he won last year and will most likely have another stab at the Classic..

thanks man...I actually bet him in the Classic last year & thought he was travelling pretty well over the ground until he got slammed in the stretch...everyone just assumed he didn't take to the dirt, but I disagree.

The jury is still out on that I guess. It was his first time over 10f as well, and he was waited with to stay the distance and when Kinane wanted some more effort from him, I think it was INvasor who lugged in on him slightly which wouldnt have done him any favours. This year, he seemed to see out the Eclipse over 10f well so the trip (or dirt!) wont be unknown to him this time.

If he goes in the Classic, he'll most likely take a little of my money again, depending on how the day is going...

Minor injuries, I think they were originally said to be pointing to a late fall campaign.

I just realized after seeing how slow those works are that I was actually thinking of Baffert's horse, AIR Commander.

[Ronnie]

Roman Commander is in today's 7th at Delmar. I think you did mean Roman Comander because he is just 3 and raced against Liquidity, Stormello. Notional, etc.. Air Commander must be 5 now?

Its interesting to see how threads die quicker here than at paceadvantage.com.

Exhale had bone chips or flakes removed the end of Feb. or first of March. He has worked the last 2 weeks and should work again Saturday or Sunday.
