I will ride Borrego again. I cannot bail on this horse just yet.

Combo with Eddington, Lion Heart, & Smarty for a Tri likely.

Its going to be touch and go for saturday, which probably means the storms will never arrive...the local forecasters LOVE to hype the weather around here...

I really think thats all there doing...

Jm,the Baltimore weather people are usually over optimistic when it comes to preakness weather.Therefore,expect a storm.Let's hope it happens early.Pimlico dries very fast.

Judge- its been July here this week , hazy hot, humid, with late day thunderstorm threats...you know the routine

All week long they`ve been telling us a cold front will be clashing with the warm air sometime this weekend...the closer it gets to saturday, it appears to be lessening...

Unless the storm hits right near race time, its now looking like less of a problem...

Originally the front was suppose to be an all day rain maker...

nice to hear for a speedy track...
