@JakeFootball5 @thestaggieman "I wouldnt trade places with anyone" is an annual classic as well

@thestaggieman “He’s kicking the stall door down” “I wish the race was today “ “never been better” - after race comments- “I don’t know what happened “ “ he grabbed a quarter” “he wasn’t himself “ “we’ll regroup “ Ignore anything coming from a trainers mouth and believe in ur capping

It’s that time of year that every horse in the derby is working incredible and in the best shape ever!

@tblumer67 @missmaryeliza x.com/i/status/20411…

@missmaryeliza Why dont you like The Puma?

My top 3 are still Renegade, Golden Tempo, and Further Ado in that order. Their most recent works have only strengthened my opinion.

@Lisa69903138 @20th_Centurygal Same. They opened for the Beastie Boys and nothing has ever come close to The Henry Rollins Band

@20th_Centurygal The Henry Rollins Band, sometime in the 90s. We were in the first row, near the speakers. They blew my friend’s baseball cap off his head. My ears are still ringing.

Who’s the loudest band you’ve ever seen live?

@EJXD2 @KentuckyDerby Do the Amermans follow you? They may be interested in those stats

This bodes well for Fulleffort’s @KentuckyDerby chances!

@EJXD2 @KentuckyDerby Its due

Blinkers on and blinkers off in the @KentuckyDerby since 1992.

@PatrickMoondog @CanterburyPark Have heard that and he will be missed. Great horseman. Great person

Unfortunately, after a very long run, the VanWinkle barn will not be returning to @CanterburyPark this summer. Hoping they have a late change of heart.

@ChildersRadio I will pay $10K for that hat

Should I make this my profile pic?

@PatrickMoondog @GoldColdSnow @OaklawnRacing One of the best jockeys period. Could ride the hair off a horse. I bet a kings ransom on Pulpit. Thought that was his day

Proud to meet Shane Sellers, one of the best speed jockeys (see Bucks Boy 1998 BC), but also a champion for reasonable weight assignments in this day and age. @OaklawnRacing

@PatrickMoondog Great guy. Great trainer. Buy him a beer for me. On the house

@PhilSpade Hell yeah! What an effort!!!

⁦@CanterburyPark⁩ in the house ⁦@OaklawnRacing⁩ with Mad House in the Count Fleet. #DavidVanWinlkle

@PatrickMoondog Van Winkle! Awesome

In the house indeed!

@theTDN @DarleyAmerica @NormCasse @JuniorandKellyA Why Pinto?

🥇 A well-backed 2-1 on career debut, Pinto (Nyquist @DarleyAmerica)–trained by @NormCasse–found the wire a head better than the Mark Casse-conditioned Rockin Robin to keep it all in the family Saturday afternoon at Keeneland. J: @JuniorandKellyA thoroughbreddailynews.com/nyquist-filly-…

@ukHolloway91 @WildcatsTongue @marcum89

@WildcatsTongue @marcum89 Can he go back to Utah? 👍🏼

When he just goes back to Florida

@missmaryeliza Correct. Just looking at the replies...we dont even remember the names. As DWL used to say "they just wanted to go hat shopping on Rodeo Drive"

I think once you defect from the Derby, you shouldn’t be allowed to reconsider. This happened last year (I think) where a horse defected then came back under consideration which messed with the bubble.

@jserio52 @IsItSwift Correct:

@IsItSwift She won a 3 and 4 way shake plus 3 solo claims

Better question is she win every shake?

@graybrigade @ArmchairHndcp I can smell these pics. Someone needs to bottle that smell

@missmaryeliza @kaitlinebenson Love the heart of The Puma but agreed completely on that action. Nice reminder to watch the head-on replays of the preps!

@kaitlinebenson The Puma. Don’t think the horse wants any part of 10F. Horse was struggling at the end of Tampa Bay Derby and has some action I don’t love. Think he could be effective going 8F.

Between Commandment, Renegade, Further Ado, & The Puma - who are you LEAST interested in on using Derby Day & why?

@IsItSwift @nazranamazing Really wish they'd list the asst trainers doing the work. Been calling for that for years..especially when the super trainer never steps foot on the ground all meet. There are some assts I respect more than the trainer.

The cons of no stall limit - Dont think a trainer with 200 + horses can overlook all 200 + horses daily. So that leads to assistants over looking operations and not trainer it self. - could create bigger fields. Sometimes trainers with multiple horses in same Condition opt out of races not to run against each other

Should racehorse Trainers be limited to 100 horses in barn?

@EmilyOptixEQ It's no Mr. Roboto but peaked at #16 in 1978: youtu.be/ZXhuso4OTG4?si…

@PhilSpade Gen Xer here doesn't know the Styx horse reference
