Location: North Dakota | Alrighty guys, who are you looking at for the Classic? My boss and another coworker are all betting against each other. Of course I like AP but his odds are 3/2 as of this morning and it probably won't get any better so money wise it's just not worth it. |

Location: Montana | Here are the 4 I pick (should you want to do a boxed superfecta): American Pharoah, Beholder, Smooth Roller, and Tonalist. Those are my picks, and according to their records should be the top 4. Now, if you want a long shot that is likely to win, I'd go with the Irish horse, Gleneagles, however I don't think shipping him across the Big Drink to a country he's never been to before will do him a whole lot of good. JMO. I love horse racing! |

Location: North Dakota | One of the guys is picking Tonalist, the other likes Frosted, and me and my other coworker haven't picked yet. I like Beholder, I like Keen Ice still, for a kinda long shot I like Smooth Roller. I just don't know though! Too many nice ones to choose! |

| I'll be at there with my mom, sister, and a family friend at the tailgating thing they have. Grand stand seats were sold out shortly after the Belmont. Keeneland is one of the smallest venues that has ever hosted the BC, and it's a BIG year. I'm pretty terrified of the crowds and traffic but I am so pumped! |

| I'm rooting for Beholder as I think AP's campaign has caught up to him and he's peaked and on the downhill side. This year's classic will be one of the best ever with the quality entering. |

There really are a ton of amazing horses entered! It's hard to choose. |

| I just read that. it was a little over a degree high-they think it was due to the stress of hauling/flying as ultrasound showed her lungs to be clear. They got her to Keeneland early hopefully to recover from the trip.

Location: North Dakota | Alrighty. Since Beholder is definitely scratched, I'm thinking Keen Ice and/or Frosted have a chance. I went with Keen Ice for my work bet but plan on a box trifecta on my own. We'll see what happens. Now for the Distaff today. I really like Wedding Toast, Curalina, and Stellar wind. All these fillies look very impressive to me. Who are y'all going with? |

Boy, was I wrong about AP-he is a superhorse! |
