Why not?? The venue could be many other places than DuQuoin... This was a great race.

they still haven't paid the purse from the last WTD at DuQuoin. Loved DuQuoin, before the Grand Circuit ceased to exist, nothing like the Roaring Grand. Can anybody name the order in which they raced?

Last one was 2009, With Muscle Hill for the win! First time Sears did not drive him his 3 year old year.

  • Bitter Truth: That Golden Tempo , I'm afraid is  a money burner. Gets so far back. Was in range but just hung and raced even in the stretch. Didn't see a Derby winner in there in my opinion.

  • Trigger: I thought BT & I had a real good shot w/ a 110 4/5, wide but nice momentum, and then a sharp left turn mid stretch ended that  ngc3
