So the only horse not on the grounds is Lines of Battle?
When is he due to arrive, and what is their thinking behind bringing him in so late??
Also, is O'Brien bringing anyone else along for the undercard stakes?

Wednesday. Philosophy is that if you don't arrive early, arrive as close to the race as possible. There aren't any other UK-based Coolmore runners coming.

Non-restricted stakes earnings would be the decider if non-point earners vie for that 20th slot should it be available... As mentioned, Midnight Lucky suggestions was hyperbolic as she's not nominated.

With 20th slot in #kyderby field possibly opening up, Paul Aguirre told CD this a.m. that Tiz a Minister should STILL be listed as possible. With Govenor Charlie, Winning Cause, Code West increasingly doubtful, current leaderboard has room for 19. Tiz a Minister & 20. Golden Soul..

Rosie: "I'm not going to make that noise on 60 minutes."


Any impact on Mylute's odds?

I think it will. My 73 yr old (slots playing) mom saw it and now she's betting on Rosie. Pretty horsie crowd will eat it up. Too bad cause I like him to hit the board at least.

He might still have some value in exotics....but clearly will be a huge underlay in WPS pools.

Met him and his father last night at the Allday/Old Friends fundraiser. Very cool kid who seems to be utterly confident and comfortable coming in to this.
