So how\'d we go from \"strongest derby field in years\" to quote various commentators to this??? Everyone apparently is either so fried from the grueling track at CD on derby day or they have no desire to tangle with the top two. Either way Baffert\'s success with derby winners in the Preakness (what is his percentage, like 100%) seems quite possible to continue. That being said, I wonder if there actually are issues surrounding Justify\'s condition, Magic might be the play; there might be more to this race than meets the eye. But just for fun, imagine if it rains at belmont: what would be the odds of a triple crown winner winning all three races on sloppy tracks???

4 of the top derby contenders were Pletcher horses who are passing this race. I think he could have made some noise here with any one of them.
