I still contend that Danza ran much better than many gave credit, or remember.

Bob

Glad to see you are feeling better.

I noticed your column was missing a couple of weeks.

I do enjoy your thoughts.

See you this summer

Bob:

Two weeks at Rood and Riddle. I was climbing the walls after two DAYS. Glad nobody
called me to take your place in the hoop game. Hope all is well now.

Bob ..... sorry to hear of your temporary setback, but very glad to know that you\'re back in the saddle.  The sport needs your insight and literary flair.

some last quick thanks on this personal stuff (sorry to those looking for \'capping content) to all the Spa-TGenerates who reached out here or in PMs or emails. Sean and Roger too kind, and I\'m blaming all of my subpar efforts for the last year on the mystery virus. Hoping they get and stay better soon. Richie, Rood & Riddle would have been much preferable owing to the higher quality of roommates (I batted .200) and that nice pool.

You excited?

It\'s beginning to look like Pletcher/Dubai horse could be a legit 1-2-bet! ;)

In regard to the Dubai horses, I\'m not sure we\'ve seen one that looks as good as this one. Thunder Snow has everything you want in a pattern heading into the derby... He\'s a little slow but no more so than Nyquist or Gun Runner last year under similar circumstances.

Now maybe there\'s something intrinsic about the Dubai ship that he\'s up against but looking at past Dubai derby shippers, that doesn\'t appear to be the case.

If he trains well and gets lasix, he may get a serious look.
