Tagg is still giving Bloodhorse a different story:
SHOWING UP - Trainer Barclay Tagg was still expecting Showing Up to be able to show up for the Kentucky Derby Tuesday morning, while reporting that the undefeated colt came out of Monday's four-furlong breeze of :49 3/5 at Belmont Park in fine order.
"He's doing well; as long as it stays that way, he's all set," said Tagg, who has been closely monitoring a puncture wound that Showing Up suffered in his right front leg during his gutsy Lexington Stakes (gr. II) victory at Keeneland on April 22. "He's ready, as long as the wound doesn't flare up. We have to stop treating him with antibiotics, because, of course, he can't race with them."
