Firing Line no longer the track record holder at SUN. NM-bred Proceed breaks it by .02 in the Sunland Park Handicap.

In fairness, that horse is not your typical Nm bred type of horse.

If you are referring to the fight in Indiana, no. Amoss will continue to battle Gorajec and the Commission.

I would love to see Materiality run back, with a clean trip he is a huge threat in the Preakness.

He'd be on all my tickets. I think TWO has a lot of potential too.

I think Stanford plays a huge role in the Preakness if he goes. No way he even comes close to winning but changes everything from a pace projection. Two weeks off is very interesting

The field is getting easier for AP again and again. What next, a match race: American Pharoah and Tale of Verve. And the easier it gets the more he saves for Big Sandy.

How so? Firing Line and Dortmund should be strong contenders too.

Ya think so? "Should" is right. But can they win? Depends on who came out of the Derby the best. Any gleaming reports on the big 3. I can't keep up since I have a real job in my real life. Speed favoring, AP controls the pace or right on it, he wins again.

Probably AP wins if the three of them lead from the beginning. Hopefully one of the other entrants outside these three will set the pace.

Materiality is not running in Preakness. Will target Belmont. Looks like Belmont going to have a pretty large field of quality horses.
