Speaking of…
3 year olds I’m looking forward to seeing as 4 year olds… I was thinking about a few horses from the Derby trail that were either injured or took breaks (is that just a euphemism for being injured).
While I don’t remember Timber Reserve, his second to last race was the Remsen, so I take it he was in contention at one point. He ran so well today, let’s see some more of those late bloomers!
In no particular order:
Belgravia
Notional
Ravel - currently on the work tab at Arlington
Great Hunter
Adore the Gold
Drums of Thunder
Day Pass
Circular Quay
A few of these guys could be on the work tab as I don’t have all of them in DRF horse watch. I’d love to see these guys back in action!
In an unrelated non-horse note, I saw Rachel Dratch and Amy Poehler of SNL fame having brunch together today in the East Village. Funny ladies need to eat too!
