At some point, check the replay for the Racing Post Trophy (Crowded House). (Nice run in the Tatts Million too where he was 2nd to Donativium).

You tell me...

No, nor me, KG...... I think she is getting too excited about this Crowded House. He'd need to be starting soon to have any chance of hitting the board.

Can I book your futures action? Please? Except on Friesan Fire. Stardom Bound's trainer doesn't want her to run in the SA Derby, do you think he'll want the KY Derby? Or will Dutrow have her by then?
Haynesfield's chance of getting 10f without a horse van are slim, esp. in G1 company.

In no particular order (and with some amount of guilt cause I'm hoping Godolphin wins the Derby at some point, anyway...)

Crowded House
The Pamplemousse
Donativium
Stardom Bound
Poltergeist

Time to trade Poltergeist for Desert Party (sorry, I Want Revenge. Maybe next month) who had been tied for 5th place on my early February list.

I'm keeping the other 4.

Anyone else wanna play?

I agree with this. Guys like Frankel and Pletcher and the Dubai people......they need to pay their dues first then maybe it will be their time. McLaughlin is due now.

Huh? Pletcher needs to "pay his dues" but McLaughlin is due now? They've been on their own about the same time and Todd has certainly achieved more with three year olds. As for Frankel, he's been training for about 40 years, give or take and he's still got to "pay his dues" also?
Also, not sure about this year but in the long run KMclaughlin's best shot may be with a Darley horse anyhow.

Mclaughlin's biggest client is the dubai folk either it be shadwell, darley but he does have horses for westpoint as well. Mr. Fantasy from westpoint looks to have a shot in the derby trail and become a contender for the derby.

Matter of fact, all three of Mclaughlin's "derby" horses are undefeated.

This might be the most outrageous statement I've ever read on this board, any horse racing board, and the web all together.

I'm sorry that sarcasm doesn't translate well.
