Shouldn't War of Will be on the rail in this line-up?

I would remove the maiden and Hidden Scroll and put in Game Winner and Omaha Beach.

Challenge Race: The field is taking shape . . .
The likelihood that War of Will draws the inside post again is remote. I do agree w/excluding the two maidens. I've included Game Winner because he was two-year-old Champion. I've included two others . . .

Warriors Charge

Game Winner

Maximum Security

War of Will

Long Range Toddy

Country House

Tacticus

Tax

Code of Honor


We know the distance is 10f. Limit race to 14 @ 128 lbs . . .

Anybody have any idea if the horse is on official layoff now / enjoying pasture time at the farm.......or is he still napping from the Derby? I just haven't kept up with the horse, since West seems to make it more about himself, his money, and/or his dares.

Anybody know what Max is doing in the meantime??? Cuz I'm really only interested in that.

save the owner stuff for jerry springer, etc. I'm all about the horses.

Last seen checking out the walking ring at Monmouth Park. Haskell is next, so I think a work out should be within the next two to three weeks.

The Pegasus on June 16 seems to be the most likely spot for his next race. He won't have to ship, and in all likelihood, Monmouth would raise the purse for the race because the UN-official Kentucky Derby winner would be a huge draw. The race would be nothing more than a paid workout for him.
