Ya gotta believe that they are watching him very closely since the Racing Commission is upset with him returning . His ego is to big to put down one of his employees down as trainer. I heard thru the grapevine that there are eyes on him most every time he is in a stall with a horse. Has anyone else heard anything about this?

Potente is in, and named that tune with 2 races, why is he in the SA Derby...to help CN (and possibly LT) that needs a 2nd...Buetane needs a 2nd in the wood...LT redundant points collected by one in, scratches or win the Lexington with only 34 points. Though LT is not slated for any more derby preps needs luck seemingly.

Probably safe this year. Potente was bred by the Wygods. Marty Wygod was on the Jockey Club Board for years til he died. Litmus Test co-owned by Barbara Banke (StonerStreet), a high up Jockey Club Board member.
Medina Spirit, the horse that got DQd from the Derby was bred by a small Florida breeder and was owned by Zedan, an Arab who bought him for $30,000.
