Capping the Derby is always a daunting task and before the draw impossible.
Adding drama to the draw, its clear the Jackson's (Barbaro, Showing Up) do not want Sunriver in the race. He ran big in the Fla derby and is traing super. Barclay being a good soldier, enters, ships, then the puncture reappears and he scratches.
But, Pletcher has a trump card. First he ties up Dominguez on Bluegrass Cat, then Winstar acquires a portion of Sharp Humor. BC works awful and Pletcher refuses to speculate on who will ride Sunriver should he get in.
Would not be surprised to see BC drop out and Sunriver run big at long odds. bbb
