Is there somewhere I could find a list of the Sires of the Kentucky Derby winners from 2000 onwards?

I do believe that's Art Sherman with Swaps in the shipping shot.

Pretty sure you're right. I remember seeing that picture posted around the internet several times during the California Chrome craze back in 2014-16.

yeah anyone can edit PQ but this is right and the sires are right beside the winner so the best place IMO.

Per DRF's Mike Welsch:

6F 14.84 28.88 42.66 55.91 119.68 barely out of an open gallop for a half then set down...final 1/4 23.77

Forever Young looks good in this workout.
That's the Japanese way and he had the similar works both in Saudi Arabia and Dubai.
But we will not know if this Japanese routine is good enough in the US until one of the Japanese horses actually wins the Kentucky Derby! .

I also really enjoyed these photos by Barbara D. Livingston of Forever Young being frisky during his gallop:

Thanks!
I always love the photos and the updates by the great Barbara Livingston, too.
She kindly casts spotlights on the Japanese contenders every year!!!

wow people REALLY don't like Dornoch

Interesting article about Equilox on Fierceness’ feet by farrier Ian McKinley. https://paulickreport.com/horse-care-ca ... -contender

Honor Marie worked stellar today! They were talking about him quite a bit on the Morning Works show.

Honor Marie the lone Derby worker this a.m. at CD 5F 35.15 59.32 pulled 4 lengths clear of SP 3yo work mate Agoo under urging to finish, galloped out 3/4's 1:12.78 up 7F 1:27.89.

I don’t know what work Mike Welsch was watching that he thought HM was under ANY urging…he was spectacular, did it all on his own

My interpretation is the workmate Agoo was under urging.

Ok, yeah I see it now …that makes much more sense

i remember when everyone (no one more than myself) was all over Cathryn Sophia til she ran third in her final prep for the oaks. i was so upset over how adamant everyone suddenly was that CS was a toss that i almost didn't watch the race, it would have broken my heart to watch them be right abt her. i tuned back in right as they broke and i think only her groom was crying harder than i was as she won quite strongly.

so it would be kind of funny if dornoch pulled that same trick.

Why don't they like him? He has been really on his toes or is that why? Do they think he will be aggressive on the front end and fight with Fierceness?

I think he has zero chance to win because he isn't fast enough even if he gets a perfect trip, and he will not get a perfect trip. But that's nothing against the horse; he's neat, and it's pretty amazing to have full siblings compete in back-to-back runnings of the Derby.

Are all the horses at CD now? I haven't seen any sign or noise about West Saratoga yet, is he at CD?

Sierra Leone has been schooling in the gate well at least

Maybe this has been shared already.
