Twitter is going crazy with the rumors! Stay tuned.

[Wrongly]

Bummer he was an easy toss!

[MO]

If he scratches, JOHN ASHER SAYS all the other horses are moved in 1 stall and My Adonis gets the 20 post. Unlike 2002 when there was a scratch and they decided to move all the horses OUT 1 stall.

[phil23]

Well looks like he hasn\'t pulled him yet.  My Adonis officially out of race (heading to a Pimlico race tomorrow).  Still 30 or so hours for Harrington to decide I guess.

I wonder if he does pull CC now, after scratch time, if they just leave his stall open or if everyone still moves in a spot?  Could slightly impact Hansen as he\'d no longer get the extra space from the end of the 1st gate.

[MO]

Well, if My Adonis is out then Asher might pull a Romney.

[toppled]

If My Adonis is out, he\'s odds on at Pimlico tomorrow.

[RICH]

How can they move, that would mean Prospective would get the 11 hole and Alpha the 10, the eleven loads with the one, and sits the longest. Prospective owners would blow a gasket

[MO]

I blew a gasket when they wouldn\'t move Came Home in from the aux gate in 2002. They moved everyone out 1 stall. War Emblem saved my ass.

Posted 20 minutes ago at Blood Horse, Harrington says Twitter rumours wrong:

\"As the rumor mill, fueled by Twitter reports, swirled around Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (gr. I) contender Creative Cause the morning of May 4, trainer Mike Harrington said there were no plans to scratch the colt from the May 5 race.\"

Good.  I hope this doesn\'t affect people betting on him because I need him to take money.  HP

Could you explain why this horse is an easy toss? Thanks. bbb

[Wild Again]

Creative Cause is only an easy toss if you are using something other than the numbers to handicap.

8 weeks since the second fastest #.

Intervening race.

Generous odds.

Whats not to like.

Yeah Yeah Yeah 15%.

The real question is what does the pattern yield for stakes quality horses.

Go Creative Cause.

Thanks

The 15% is specifically for Derby horses, as stated.
