      Does he need to move stables for him to Run in the Race or has the ban on Baffet been lifted?

        If the owners decided to get on the Derby trail they would have to transfer him to another barn to win/earn any Derby points.
        ​​
        An extra risk I guess.

          Do you think that's been factored into the price?

            No I don't Ronnie. Fierceness, Locked & Muth have all raced and won in G1 races whereas Nysos has more to prove and has only won a 6F maiden, albeit impressive.

                What does everyone think about doing a monthly flat yankee like MoM does for Cheltenham? In recent years I've done one for the 1000/2000 Guineas and the Kentucky Oaks/Derby as they fall on the same weekend, would stimulate conversation and opinions if nothing else. Could also look at a Royal Ascot Yankee and Breeders Cup Yankee too into next year. Pretty sure we had the 1000 and KD winner put up on the 2023 thread at big prices this year so could end up being profitable and a bit of fun.
                Markets very limited until the new year with regards to the Kentucky races but no harm in getting the 2 year olds in a couple before seeing what else comes out in Jan/Feb.

                I'm not opposed to one member having the final say on selections each month or it could go to a vote if that would work?

                Interested to hear people's thoughts/ideas about this.

                  I think that’s a great idea MP. For it to work tho I do think that we need a new thread and one member having the final say… as it’s your idea, would you be happy to do it?

                    Like that idea!

                    Here's mine little yankee right now if I was to go for one this early

                    2000 Guineas - City of Troy
                    1000 Guineas - One Look
                    KY Derby - Nysos/Heartland
                    KY Oaks - Just FYI

                      Yeah I'd be happy to kick this one off and rotate any future ones around, I know you're a big breeders cup fan so maybe you could take charge of that one when the time comes. I'll start a thread for it later today and get the ball rolling

                          Booth has no business being 33/1 for the KY derby whilst nash is almost a third of the price

                              Looks like we'll see Booth Saturday at Churchill, could be more of a sprinter.

                                He looks like he'll get 2 turns no problem, just need him to change trainer

                                Interestingly, their 2nd futures pool opens on Thursday, Nysos isn't listed but they can also back the winning sire,
                                ​​​Nyquist is 80/1
