The best of it being the two legendary confrontations between fellow NY Breds Samraat and Uncle Sigh. Two races that will long live in racing lore.

Unfair to devalue Uncle Sigh, Samraat and now Cal Chrome because they dont have well recognized pages. Those 3 are good horses and consider Uncle Sigh's trainer is the opposite of good. How would Uncle Sigh be in the hands of a real 3 year old classic conditioner.

Anyone look at the pp's for this race yet?
I love Honor Code, Im a huge fan....
But he could get beat in here, the 1 is very fast. And there is no other pace, at all.

With Top Billing out, I think Shug said Honor Code could replace him in the Florida Derby.

Shug might be indifferent to the result... paid workout?

yes it is a paid work out, he will run good good but will not win, he will then run in the Florida Derby, get hurt and be retired, he has done enough.

He hasn't won a Grade I yet, and his connections know it. Had Honor Code gotten up in the Champagne last year, we might be having a different discussion.

Here is my analysis for the race.

It should be a pretty tough battle between Social Inclusion and Honor Code.

Pretty much agree. Obviously I think the world of Honor Code. He has been my Derby horse since Saratoga. IF he runs by the 1 and I lose $50 on a 5x5xSocial Inclusion spread pick 3, I wont really mind.
