Stay Thirsty is the heavy favorite right now to be the horse leading up to the Derby that misses a couple of days of training with a "foot" problem, has his final work postponed by a day or two, works a scorching 1/2 mile on entry day, and then comes up with an injury about an hour later.

I don't know if that's possible ... without the blinkers he was getting outworked by Colizeo.

Who ran a BIG race Saturday.

I want to know the reasoning behind the " Stay Thirsty wants to run all day " nonsense. Is it because Andromeda's Hero beat Nolan's Cat in the Belmont?

He does want to run all day, or perhaps he just wants all day to run?

What's wrong with Repole? He's a St. John's guy.

That '05 Belmont still has to be one of the more oddly bet major races in recent memory.

That's probably why they're sticking with the plan for now with stay thirsty. If something did go wrong with Mo, then the connections can still be represented in the derby..albeit with a horse with no chance.

They'll wait until the morning of the race to scratch him. Stay Thirsty might not even be entered.
