I wish he would stay home and run in the Withers. Eightyfiveinafifty v. Trappe Shot would be an interesting race.

I believe D'Funnybone is headed there and you'd have to think Anthony Dutrow would consider it for A Little Warm if the Derby is a no go (I know he previously said no Derby would mean straight to Preakness).

D'Funnybone makes sense; Dutrow took the same path with This One's for Phil last year.

The problem is when you have horses like Giacomo and Mine That Bird coming out of nowhere, it is hard to convince owners that their horse has no shot.
