I saw that article earlier. It would be interesting if the big three come back. I'd be quite surprised though. Also it might be a case of be careful what you wish for. Do we want a big field..which would be the case(as many as 12 I've heard) if one or two of the big three dont' show....or......do we want a smaller field with the big three being in...Am I making any sense?
Personally I would love to see a rematch....So does NYRA.

Nobody is going to watch it if the big 3 don't come back.

Having a small field, but with the big 3, would be the best thing to happen as long as the horses all come out of the Preakness okay. I would love it as well.

Yep.

I don't see what he was getting at with posting that thread either. It was late February, and I said there was no shot of R2R winning the Derby, because it was obvious she wouldn't run in the Derby.

Besides her, the 3-year-old filly division looked horrendous, so you obviously point for the Oaks with a filly who didn't break her maiden until her 3yo season.

Come on drugs, you had no faith in her at all. That's why I posted it. You came back on this tread and now are convinced she is the best. OK? Don't matter anyway.

I'm done here on this thread anyway.

Saying "I had no faith in her" ---That's not true at all.

In fact, on another board, I said she'd win the Kentucky Oaks after her January maiden win this year.......however, I don't want to turn this thread into another 'DrugS thinks he's God' thread...contrary to how it really may appear, I haven't started a self promotion campaign lately. I'm not running for anything, nor trying to sell anything to anyone.

You started the thread with the question: "Can a Filly win the Derby tis year???"

Had I felt there was any chance she'd be in the gate on Derby day, I'd have answered differently.
