You need to report this stuff here, at least the smart players will be recognizing the information as noteworthy....

Steve, real quick, and let me start this comment with I know little about works, except for the ones I used to see on TVG when they have The Works

Was Borel really after him in the stretch, like with the whip or did he just shove him / show him the whip and he took off?

Whip was in his back pocket.
I was at the finish line and only heard Calvin smooching at him.

maybe I'm wrong but I think he wasn't knocking the workout report but the chances of DENIS OF CORK.

I was also getting under Steve's skin over his man crush of Carroll.

I really don't care if it is. I'll call anyone who wagers on this horse derby day an idiot.

I'll admit that I am including him in my tri and exactas.

I am keying Colonel John in all three spots with 9 other horses, total cost of $216. Right now my five horses for the $10 exacta box I play are.

Colonel John
Denis of Cork
Pyro
Z Fortune
Have no idea on the fifth

Any insight on the overly fast "stretch her legs out" Eight Belles work at Keeneland yesterday?? And if I am reading under the lines correctly, the plan is to enter her in both races, and they will scratch from one or the other depending on the KY Derby post potentially keeping someone out of the Derby?? Is that what's going on here?

Steve, the Denis report is great, but since you were there, do you have anything for the masses on Z Fortune? He also worked this morning at the Downs...

Seeing as how you can't spell his name right, why should I believe you know what you're talking about when it comes to "Denis" of Cork?
