Maybe it\'s time to start discussing the Preakness and the What-ifs.

Any opinions on any of the second stringers running a new top that is enough to give BB a run if he should have a Monarchos type bounce.


Good Luck,

Not from me -- I\'m too busy watching replays of the Derby, trying to figure out exactly when Big Brown did any sustained hard running.
 
Unless I can find a horse for 2nd for a cold one-way, the Preakness is likely a pass for me.

Dutrow thought you might ask that

Dutrow said he was informed Big Brown earned a minus-1 figure on the Ragozin Sheets - the lower the number, the better the performance - with his Derby victory. \"He\'s got to react,\" he said, meaning he believes the colt will \"bounce,\" and not run as fast in the Preakness. \"He\'s not going to run a minus-1 again. But I\'m figuring if he runs like a 5, he can still win the race.\"

Wow,

A dime on a dollar horse running a 6 point X and still supposed to win. How do I get a piece of that KEY this Saturday?

If there a limit on how much I can bet.......

It wouldn\'t be the first time a horse X\'ed 6 points and won.  Take a look at Saint Liams sheet in the archives (2005 Breeders Cup).  In fact, he won his last two with an X and an Off.
