Yes, especially soundness! I know injury is inevitable eventually, but let's hope for a clean run today! :)

Best of luck to all horses, trainers, owner/s and the staff that put their time into these great animals. I spent the afternoon yesterday at the race track and the weather was just beautiful, as well as the horses.

My picks for today are:

Animal Kingdom and Dialed In, nose for nose at the wire -- we'll have to wait for the photo finish to know who the winner is biggrin

Dialed In ran the fastest last quarter in the Derby since Secretariat. AND he could win 6M :shock: instead of 600k (because of a special offering which he qualifies to get IF he wins!!!! )

SOOOO close with Shackelford winning (and he was elgible for an extra 500k!!!! ).

AK almosttt made it (was 2nd)....but he should take it (again) in the Belmont with the extra distance.
