I bet a couple of filly connections just pissed themselves at their own chances increasing. Hope the filly bounces back.

I think he is more in utter shock that a fever 14 days before a race means they are absolutely out.

Horse could be fine in like 2-3 days and not miss a lick.

Depending on what they had to treat her with, the withdrawal time would be right on the cusp of pushing it. Good on the connections for being forthcoming. Sucks all the same. The race did just become a much better betting prospect though. Maybe an Oneil double this year? Assmussen has a nice hand, though.

Insert foot in mouth

Does that mean a Preakness is a possibility?

No.

Congrats to the connections for putting the horse's welfare first. Always another race down the road. Also for letting everyone know early. Bet a few connections that wanted no part of Songbird are changing their plans.

Well this is good news from a betting standpoint!!!

2nd thoughts for Cathryn Sophia's connections?

The people who bet her in the Ky Oaks future pool will take great comfort in this ;)

One of the many reasons I think those future pools are a ripoff.

This really takes the shine off Friday's feature. I guess I'll just sip a few more of those lillies to keep my occupied.

sucks as she is a special horse. On the bright side now I have to allocate funds to Oaks/Derby Double.

Travers hopeful ??

thought 4-5 on her in the futures was steal.
turns out it was easiest wager CDI ever booked.....dead money

-bt-

CDI doesn't book bets. These are pari-mutual pools.

More likely Alabama https://www.nyra.com/saratoga/stake-race/alabama/
but Haskell would suit her speed as well if Baffert doesn't ship in a monster.
