From DerbyMedia:
Chamberain Bridge (Turf Sprint) popped an abscess this a.m. & will probably skip his next scheduled breeze. Will return to track tomorrow.

Obviously a big deal as he probably will be a top 3 choice.

Loved him in this spot as he should be 4-4 on the CD lawn. Obviously the abscess and missed breeze dampen the enthusiasm. Any update on his status would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm sorry for being obsessed with this, but could this be the worst ML in the history of BC ML's

The horse has never even won at 8 furlongs, and won a 5 horse Penn Derby.

He has to be banging someone at Churchill to be allowed to keep his job.

It should be good for you if you don't like that horse

There's no way Here Comes Ben and Tizway will be 6-1 either. Scav shouldn't be happy because the race won't be bet how Battaglia thinks it will. Morning Line should be like 8-1.

Why? What percentage of the public is going to bet according to the morning line? Battaglia's line is irrelevant, just fun to laugh at.

I know this is probably hyperbole because we all know what she is capable of, but Zenyatta looked just awesome in her work a few minutes ago.

Grand Adventure is the most likely winner.

Ravalo is the value.

I'm curious how you can like that horse at 5f. He is either gonna be 7 wide in the turn or he is gonna have to have fight through traffic.

I am not sure what price Bridgetown will be, intrigues me, but whoever I figure to be in the 2nd tier (out of three tiers) will be who I'll be using.

It's one of the few races I'm really interested in seeing the draw. I've looked at the race about 4 different times and I've come up with a different opinion each time. But, for now I'm interested in Central City, Rose catherine and Grand Adventure.

I'm sure that will change in a day or so.

To me, for a spread player, it is an all race because the traffic trouble in this race will be plentiful, and I'll probably do that on at least a couple tickets.

Right now, if I had to commit to a couple it would be Silver Timber, Bridgetown, Chamberlian Bridge because they will have the tactical speed and still be able to finish.

Wouldn't play Chamberlain Bridge with monopoly money.

I also think Quick Enough can sit a good one and catch on for a slice.
