Whittingham said that.

Another twist with Anothertwistafate as he's stuck at Sunland after a barn mate of his just died of herpesvirus at Golden Gate, and because of this proximity he's not being allowed to ship back to southern CA tracks either at the moment. Hopefully this doesn't spread anywhere else but the isolated incident at GG, but certainly bad timing & luck when trying to get this guy ready for the triple crown.

Really wanted to see him training on Synthetics up till the week before the Derby. It is a rough road to the Derby for some.

I believe Charlie Whittingham is credited with the aforementioned quip.

Hello everyone. I talked with Blaine last week and he said Anothertwistafate will be competing in the Lexington Stakes. Hopefully Anothertwistafate can get enough points to qualify for the Kentucky Derby, otherwise he has an automatic berth to the Preakness Stakes.

Could be a blessing in disguise, should have a good foundation. That being said there is no way the 2nd place finisher in the FL Derby or Plus Que whatever deserve to be in before him. Or for that matter the horse from Japan

I was hoping they'd keep him at Sunland to train and work, so I'm okay with that.

I guess we will have to wait for the Preakness Stakes. A very nice horse with a ton of upside.

Wise guy horse that always seems to get beat for some reason or other.



Good horse to key on the bottom of Trifectas.

Well back to the drawing board. Good horse I wouldn't push
