How do you figure Dunkirk will take a lot of money? Based on Pletcher's record in the derby ?

While will he need everything to go perfectly? Not sure what you are getting at. I think the other 19 horses would also need things to go their way to win.

What are the qualifications to have a "blog" on there besides a keyboard and a pulse rate?

If so you might be out of luck getting an audience.

Yes, your "sarcasm" was pretty clear, now that I go back and look at it.

The retroactive claim of sarcasm is second only to the premature final-post declaration when it comes to my favorite DT tactics.

Basically because he's a hyped horse. He may win...but I'd bet that he doesn't...I think he probably has a hell of a shot in the Preakness...I don't like his lack of foundation...they rushed this horse in, and yes, he will need everything to go perfectly, if he gets stopped in the middle of a run, I don't think he will be able to recover as well as some of the other horses...he's not frigging Alysheba.
