Per Claire Novak, Constitution to miss Ky Derby with hairline fracture of front right cannon bone.

Castellano has no mount with Constitution out.

Uncle Sigh in.

Welsch:Social Inclusion breezes 3/8 35.04 over a muddy track out 4F 47.60 owner says he\'ll run in Derby if he can get in currently 27th on list

....actually SI 24th now with a couple on fence, SI adds big early gas if he gets in.

Miff-- how did you get him to 24th? I have him 26, with 7 above him that haven\'t said for sure they will run. That includes Midnight Hawk-- if he wins the Ill Derby impressively and comes out good, try to keep Baffert out.

I have Midnight Hawk and Dance With Fate as highly doubtful, but not confirmed

Looks like the odds just dropped a bit with the FL Derby winner and undefeated horse Constitution now out. Someone on these boards asked why they don\'t draw posts for the Derby like 2 weeks out... this is why I am sure there will be a couple more updates before all said and done. Its the one reason I don\'t get to focused on finding a horse I want to key because never know if they are even going to be there to run and its best to see how they take to the CD strip... of well hope he recovers and is able to continue to show how talented he is. His FL Derby win was impressive considering it was his 3rd lifetime start.

I guess he didn\'t have the right constitution.

Lobotomy?

Hah!!

No lobotomy, but a calmer P-Dub. Its a conscious decision, no surgery or pharmaceuticals needed.

The date referenced was my wedding day. Other stuff pisses me off more now than this stuff.

If you include the very questionable Dance With Fate and Midnight Hawk in the top twenty the next in order would be:

21 Vinceremos
22 Harrys Holiday
23 Commanding Curve
24 Pablo Del Monte
25 Bayern
26 Social Inclusion

Can\'t see Vinceremos or Harrys Holiday running off 28 length losses in the Blue Grass.Commanding Curve(they\'re running if in) looks to be in good shape here and it seems like Pablo Del Monte could enter.Can\'t see Baffert running Bayern so Social Inclusion seems a possibility after all.

Pletcher today hinted at running Vince if he gets in, but that might have been the disappointment talking.
