It’s probably not going to get written because every time I go to start it, the field changes. 
But if it gets written, absolutely.

Forte scratched
Dang! What a year – And the race isn’t even run yet!
And there it is. A day later than expected but doesn’t really matter since all the AEs were already in.
Ugh! I am so disappointed!
I haven’t seen details yet, but I saw a tweet of him being jogged in hand yesterday. Slightly funky right front?
Oops, left front.

How did you know it would happen?
Rumors were swirling yesterday, which could of course not mean anything.
I did think he looked a bit funny jogging yesterday, I thought right front, but I saw somewhere they said left. But now I hear right…
Here is the tweet of him jogging yesterday.

Awfully slight–but I am certainly not a pro.

When does the race actually start? This pre-race banter is stupid.

Yeah the pre-race banter is annoying. I mute the TV.

Oh! Okay, back to the coronation coverage. I don’t normally watch tv, but we’re visiting the in-laws right now and I’m hanging out in the hotel.

Has any site published a clean, up to date list of who is left in the field and their saddle numbers?
I’m having a hard time finding one.
TIA
It is the right front, with a bruise.

Thanks, that looks pretty good.
Based on nothing other than just casual interest in horse racing, I like the looks of Tapit Trice, but seems like such a big field could work to his disadvantage if he needs outside running room. Kingsbarns has really interesting breeding, and hey, today is the Coronation of King Charles III, so why not a Kingsbarns Derby winner on Coronation Day? And Disarm looks like a likely longshot-- but its all horse racing so how knows? Those are the ones I am rooting for!

That’s the fun of the derby - anything can happen!

Mulling over the everchanging Derby field and the Into Mischief colts as long shots… but I had the win and show fillies in the Oaks yesterday! Pretty Mischievous looked great!

What does AE mean?

AE = Also Eligible.
Entered in a race but unable to race unless the specified/limited number of entries is diminished by scratches… then they can draw in.
