I believe Pablo would run from post #20.

I believe Pablo would run from post #20.

does that change everyones numbers as well or does he wear 11 and start from post 20?

with such outstanding route pedigree you'd think they'd jump at the chance to enter.:rolleyes:

If PDM's choose not to run him, then that means Social Exclusion (heh) would have been eligible had he become an AE?

This explains why no mention of HOPPERTUNITY starting gate at the draw only CHITU's starting gate draw by Baffert.... wonder if they suspected something wrong on Wednesday. ( ? )

Not saying he transfers it to CD but he ran huge in the Blue Grass

The top 7 at the finish were 10th-9th-1st(Him)-13th-12th-11th-14th early and it was a dead track that favored closers

Black? At least that's what I think when I hear 21 -- as in the card game.

Light purple with blue number, at least according to this random link from twitter.

Wow, too bad about Hoppertunity. Damn. I gave him a huge chance to hit the trifecta and was going to use on top of some of my tickets.

QUESTION...

Can Mike Smith grab another mount or is he screwed...I always liked that guy tough break if he can't find another mount

Hoppertunity has some discomfort on his left front foot Baffert said. ........

Vicars draws Rail, Wicked gets Outside Post, and Hopper Scratches.

OK, back to the drawing board. Well, at least I've got a few days to sort it out.

i think he can grab another mount if someone gets sick hurt before the race.

With Pablo Del Monte SCR, the No. 1 post will be left open, and Nos. 1-10 all scoot down one slot. #KyDerby
