The 10 starters appear to be:
Big Brown (1st Ky Derby, Preakness)
Anak Nakal (7th Ky Derby)
Behindatthebar (1st lexington)
Casino Drive (1st Peter Pan)
Da Tara
Denis of Cork (3rd Ky Derby)
Icabad Crane (3rd Preakness)
Macho Again (2nd Preakness)
Ready's Echo (3rd Peter pan)
Tale of Ekati( 4th Ky Derby, 1st Wood Memorial)

- Tale of Ekati worked well, breezing 6 furlongs in 1:11:99 over a muddy track at Belmont. Trainer was pleased after a subpar workout the week before.
- Ready's Echo worked five furlongs on the Training Track in 1:00:91 and Pletcher called him ready.
- Casino Drive worked in company. Time was reported as 1:10 and 3/5 by the trainer.
- Big Brown was scheduled to have an acrylic/fiberglass patch placed on his hoof today but that has been rescheduled and he will work tomorrow without it.
- Behindatthebar is less then 50/50 to run in the race.

I can't believe there is a Wood Memorial. He's not dead, people, he's just in the bullpen. :P

I don't see it with Casino Drive. I don't buy the hype. In my eyes he got an easy trip stalking the pace after the connections sent out a rabit to soften up the pace horses. No one in that Peter Pan field was as good as what BB has beaten either. If you're looking for a horse to beat BB, I'd look at Dennis of Cork or Tale of Ekati (if muddy). Maybe even Behindthebar. I won't get shorted on Casino Drive though.
