Sure there were some impressive performances this weekend, but do you honestly think that they are all going to make the gate? Hell, last years the favorite scratched the day of the race. Let's narrow the field down to about 30 and then maybe the debate could start. Just so much could happen from now till the first Saturday of May. For me personally, you can't debate a race when your not really sure who will be running in it.

But it's still a better topic than the possible weather forcast, I would plead guilty to not being a foward thinker about that.
