I think you all know where my heart lies with this one...Mr. Speaker all the way. Glad he is going off as the favorite since it seems Divine Oath has been getting most of the attention recently.
As predicted, Mr. Speaker took the field.
Too bad he was not entered in the Bluegrass Stakes.
His breeding says dirt.
He had one effort on Gulfstream dirt...how many dirt horses do not perform well on that dirt? Look at Wicked Strong, Our Caravan, and likely many others...
So, I think he deserves another shot...but who am I?
