I heard some pretty interesting information about that horse from a reliable person, and from what I'm reading the last two days, he's apparently taken kindly to the track at CD now.
After that ugly initial work where Bridgmohan had to really encourage him in the late stages and into the turn past the wire, he has looked a lot better galloping. He was alone in that work but today he had company (Mile High Magic) and seemed much more interested without urging. It wasn't flashy by any means and he never buried the workmate, (which may have been Baffert's design), but they went a long way through the gallop out to the backstretch willingly.

Gary Young brought up a good reason to be interested in Liaison: "He's a plug.. but he's a plug that will keep coming." As I wrote in the XpressBet Derby Wagering Guide, there are some great candidates for 3rd/4th in this race and Liaison may be working himself into that picture.

(As an aside, I guess no one has looked at the free XpressBet Guide based on the Sabercat and Done Talking comments earlier in the thread)..
