I hate to admit I got a little jealous when I saw this. :(

I think First Warning is out after Barbaro's sister destroyed him. Cherish the Moment is very nice.

Roman Road and Colorado are out.

Hey Skaggs... are you really going to run First Warning in the LA derby this week, the Illinois derby next week and then get tempted by the triple crown weeks 6-8? If that is the case, can I have him before he breaks in half? I'll give you 90% of any money he makes in the next 5 weeks ;) You know you want to run him in the KY, I suggest skipping out of the IL.

I think Strength and Honor will take the IL derby.

I agree he would break in half, I have this problem of entering 2 races at a time. But no, hes running in Louisiana and then maybe Saint Louis.

Colossal is skipping in favor of the Belmont (and possibly the Preakness).
