  • Floridaf · Horse of the Meet is now officially included! Matt, it was a great meet, and I was fortunate enough to see both the Swale and the Gulfstream Park Handicap. Later this week I will likely have a piece up on the Derby chances of the seven colts you named. · 24 days ago ·

  • AnnaK · IMO Leparoux is the wilier, abit like an invisible fox around a henhouse, so would bet on him, and personally think UR is the stronger physically and mentally. But there are a few others in there that I really like too, so a great race to think about. · 57 days ago ·

  • Herman'sKennel · Chad Brown is so proud of this horse, he has such an affection for her, he only wants her to be sound, God Forbid anything ever happen to her on his watch. Did it ever occur to anyone that he truly loves this horse and does not want to take even the slightest chance with her well being?
