A-Coupled: Edge of Reality and Snake Pit

Ben's Cat! :tro:

With as much racing as I watch, I'm not familiar with the horses aiming for the Marathon at all.. :o

Very happy to see that Eldaafer won. :)

Battier was the only one who really made any change in position in the Smarty Jones, but at least one horse (Edge of Reality) ran well out of the Curlin.

Dutrow said he won't enter Edge of Reality in the PA Derby.

Kind of poor scheduling on PARX's part with only 19 days between their local prep and the big event. Had they moved it back a week, they would have been 5 weeks out from the Travers, 5 to the BC which seems to be what most trainers are looking for (right or wrong) and given an extra week for the horses who ran in the Smarty Jones.
