Only seven horses for a $1 million Grade 2 where the likely strong favorite still has the N1X?

I think First Dude has five straight in the money finishes in Grade 1 races - to go with that N1X alw condition in his pocket.

Nice to see him getting 8lbs from Afleet Again.

He was hustled by the racing office. He's lost three in a row and most recently finished 3 lengths back in a N3L on turf at Penn National. What he has on First Dude, though, is that he's cleared the N1X condition.

I'm actually looking forward to seeing the two Pletcher fillies face each other in the Turf Amazon.

Todds 2 horses in the sprint race are both really good. Should be OK.
I also like Todd in the big 1.

I wont be betting, thats just my pick. His last was better then I thought he would run and the horse who beat him is solid. Todd is on fire, and I think he is likely to stalk.

Any truth to the rumor track management is thinking of changing the name from the PA Derby to Derby X?

LOL. Only if every other contender is looking at this as just a prep.

You didn't play the triactor contest? For shame. First Dude was my top choice.

Glad I didn't, I had ML for third. Hope you have as much in reserve for the BC as I do.

First Dude's inability to hold postition on the far turn cost him again.

If they ever build a 9 furlong straightaway racetrack - he'd move up for sure.
