Contentious edition of this oft-moved stakes.

Won't fault anyone who likes either Astrology or Cal Nation; methinks Astrology is looking to the Preakness and Cal Nation is Pletcher, but really untested....Astrology looks the better if they're shooting for this. Assman barn has also been high on Justin Phillip for the longest time.

But I'm going to take a chance with Rattlesnake Bridge. Really revved it up in the stretch to take debut, then finished second to Uncle Mo in his next start, though that may be meaningless at this point. Will they send or will they come from out of it, and if it's the latter, will Jose Lezcano revert to his old ways of closing, but falling short? There's upside here and I'll take the chance.

Stanley Hough is also entered and he usually means business, but so many of these are truly untested.

DD....5/ALL.....DD....ALL/6-10....ex box....5/ALL

Anything can happen in the slop.....

The police are coming to quell the noise on this board.

It's like oldguy once told me: Stanley Hough rarely enters unless he thinks he's got a shot. Adios Charlie was impressive on this day. Only mount today for Rajiv Maragh.

Justin Phillip has now established his limit; Astrology got the tune-up he needed for the Preakness; uncertain if Rattlesnake Bridge changed leads - pay to follow this lug, but he needs to mature.
