Looks like you may need 250k to get in safely this year.
I think a 2-3 year ago 150k was enough.

It always depends if something odd happens in a race like the Bluegrass or Lexington, but looking at the list above, there's probably 3 horses that are currently in the top 10 and a few more in the top 20 that won't end up going to the derby.

Riveting Reason off Derby trail
Riveting Reason, second in the Grade 2 Robert Lewis Stakes in February in his most recent start, has been turned out for the spring with a hoof injury, according to Maria Ayala, assistant to owner-trainer Myung Kwon Cho.

Maybe more than $250 k. The Louisiana Derby purse needs to be lowered! Pants On Fire? Come on, do we have to see this horse take up a space in the gate?

It's been two weeks since Uncle Mo worked out on 3/12. Nothing since.

How long does Pletcher usually to work his horses after an afternoon appearance?

What does Uncle Mo's facebook page say about his training schedule?
