Better get used to Mandarin Hero…
“If we don’t get in (the Kentucky Derby), we’ll look at the Preakness. We’re not sure what our schedule will be yet as far as how long he’ll stay at Santa Anita. But we had a flight booked back to Japan for Tuesday. That’s been canceled.”

Chad Brown deserves a TON of credit for how he’s handled these two colts. He got Zandon to the Derby in perfect shape and he fired. Then, Early Voting runs a career high number in the Preakness. Top trainer in the game!

Fierceness broke. He got position. He had zero excuses and got the exact trip you hoped.
He just didn't fire. Frustrating horse.

Pletcher said Forte deserves the opportunity to try to win a Triple Crown race. However, if Forte doesn’t make the Preakness, he said the colt likely will be pointed for the Travers (G1) in August at Saratoga rather than the Triple Crown finale.

Todd Pletcher: “Tapit Trice did what he always does – he broke slow and then he had to check a couple of times heading into the first turn. When it came time he couldn’t get going well enough; farther for him. We’re thinking Belmont."

With the news of Mage's retirement, here's a look at the last 5 years of the Kentucky Derby:
2023: Mage (0 wins after)
2022: Rich Strike (0)
2021: Medina Spirit (2)
2021: Mandaloun (3)
2020: Authentic (1 - Won Classic)
2019: Country House (Never ran again)
Stellar.

Hot Rod Charlie was the best horse in the Haskell. And it’s not close.

It looks like many people are upset with the date and/or distance change of the Belmont Stakes, which is now June 20 at 1 1/8 miles. Sure, it’s not ideal. What about this year has been? I’ll take it over nothing.

After watching the replay a few times, hard to argue that Forever Young didn't run the best race of all of them. Incredible effort. Props.

Why have we heard nothing from Churchill Downs or the KY racing authorities? Shouldn't they have been in charge of holding this press conference? Doesn't this speak volumes about a much larger issue in the sport?

This year, Maximum Security has finished first in four G1 races. Has finished first in races of distances of of 6F, 7F, 1 mile, 1 1/8 miles and 1 1/4 miles. And has now beaten olders.
Forget 3-Year-Old Champion, he could have been Horse of the Year with any luck.

So Robertino Diodoro wins the Temperence Hill Stakes on the same day it's announced he's facing a 2-year suspension for possession of banned substances?
The winning owner is Diodoro's lawyer, no less.

Something to think about. Hot Rod Charlie:
- Won the G2 LA Derby
- 3rd in the G1 Kentucky Derby
- Ran an unbelievable 2nd in G1 Belmont to EQ
- Finished 1st in G1 Haskell
- Won G1 PA Derby
...
Why can't he win the
@BreedersCup
Classic?

The Kentucky Derby still matters. It was a game of chicken and the owners finally had to flinch. Messier, Doppelgänger, and McLaren Vale heading to the Yakteen barn. Blackadder to Brisset.
