I'm not sure what Steve Allday slipped Roses in May and some of the others but obviously Dale Romans cut himself a big fatty line of it and took a Triple Crown Size snort.

He had the shortsightedness to say his horse is going to the lead in the Derby. That was smart Dale. You can be sure that other horse dusts you early now because you just put him on notice and theres no way in hell you are gonna outquick him. That Florida Derby pace was lethargic compared to the heat you're about to get scorched by.

Unbelieveable and they let this guy train horses? Dale let me help you some here. You weren't a horse trainer before Steve Allday and you're not one now. You're not a handicapper either. I've got two pearls I'm laying before you. 1.)Stay away from the EPO container. That @#$%& will make you crazy man, and 2.) Ease off the double cheeseburgers.

Now for some substance. This in the same article quoted below:

"If Sinister Minister does bounce out of his titanic effort in the Blue Grass in good shape, then it looks like we're going to have a real barn burner of a race. His trainer, Bob Baffert, calls him a run-off who is pure speed, and after watching him demolish some talented, classy horses in the Blue Grass, one has to wonder just how good he is and whether or not he can come back in three weeks and run anything even near that kind of race.

One thing is certain: Sinister Minister will be coming out of there with all barrels blazing. What is going to happen when and if he is hooked by a tiger like Sharp Humor is anyone's guess. But the other jockeys had better be aware of what's going on up front or they could get sucked right into the vacuum.

Sinister Minister arrived at Churchill Downs Monday afternoon, and if the Blue Grass did knock him out, he didn't show any signs of it. He was alert and kept busy by boring a deep hole in his hay rack. This morning, he was out for his first gallop under exercise rider Mick Jenner. The son of Old Trieste went around there smoothly and seemed focused all the way. He does not pack a lot of flesh, but he's all racehorse."

Bellsbend thinks he lost 75 pounds in the Bluegrass...NOT
