This is Ken Ramsey we are talking about. Don't confuse money for horse sense.

Lost in all the Derby PP talk is the fact that the Curse of Exterminator lives on for yet another year.

Running Pleasant Prince probably wouldn't have been likely anyway. DIdn't he just run up the track in the Derby Trial? Rather go 10f with one turf/poly Kitten's Joy than run another 3YO for the fourth time in like six weeks.

Total aside, but I'd heard Setsuko's been training lights-out at CD this week anyway. I hope we get to see him try the Belmont, perhaps.

Not only is this field utter muck, but the potential favorite and second favorite are now on the rail and in post 20. It's almost like CD planned it.

A damned shame. I really can't even blame the connections completely. Back when horse owners were sane, it was a no-brainer that the SA Derby runner-up could make the field. But nowadays...[see Beyer rant].
