These are kind of lightly raced horses... makes pattern analysis more difficult, no?

TMB has had 60 days since his big effort.

Likely's negative number was at Kee. Can you say Sinister Minister?

Of course KE "x'd, thats what happens when you run a miler in the Derby. Maybe the horse in the race helped most by possible wet conditions.

Saint Daimon fascinates me. Jerkens won this race with Take It Out a few years ago, beating Baffert's odds on Flame Thrower, I think. Noel Wynter rode for the Chief and Hobeau Farm that day. SD as a 2YO loved to run on the inside. I can see him coming up the rail if the pacesetters take the turn wide. Multiple wet winner, multiple Belmont winner, he'll be on my P4 ticket at 10- 12/1. Fun fact: he ran against Bluegrass Cat and Sunriver in his first 2 lifetime starts. Win lose or draw, expect a Jean Luc magical mystery tour.
