Stevens on Candy Boy. Bayern not getting in Derby.

Stevens must be taking a few days off ahead of Derby-Oaks Weekend as he no calls through Saturday.

Really? I did not realize that. I thought I read originally that there were points for the race, which makes sense, since it is at CD.

Yes, this is the first year with no points.

[Jay Frederick]

Liking Myositis Dan more and more in this spot.

Actually, Bayern doesn't need points just graded earnings. I think if he wins he would earn enough graded earnings to make the field as the 20th horse pushing Harry's Holiday out.

Do you think he would if Hoppurtunity wins the Derby? Would be an interesting conversation between him and Kaleem Shah I bet.

this is why i can't imagine juggling horses, or why i wouldn't want my 'big' horse in a barn with other big ones. it's the downside to having these super trainers.
are they doing what's best for horses, or themselves? do you tell an owner no because you don't want to explain to another owner why you ran a horse against his?

that's what i call a sticky situation.

[PJR 3.0]

It's Myositis Dan for me. Bayern is the horse to beat, but I have three red marks against him, play against angles if you will.....
1.) Short return off a big effort
2.) Cheap speed in here hurts him
3.) He has to go from the one

[Jackson]

I guess Baffert stated that Bayern wouldn't run back even if he did make the field. A run at the Preakness seems more likely if he runs well.

[Seattleallstar]

Bs call, bayern was bumped first and drift in stretch was
50/50
