                        <![CDATA[Orb stands so far above the rest of the 3&#45;year&#45;old class that it&apos;s difficult to single out which of his eight rivals represents the biggest threat to him in the Preakness. All Orb has to do is run his race without experiencing horrendous racing luck to head to Belmont Park with a big shot to end the Triple Crown draught.]]>

South Florida horsemen withdrew permission to export Calder&apos;s simulcast signal, which in only four days cost the track millions in revenue. It also cost horsemen a 20% purse reduction. A temporary settlement on May 9 kicked the can down the road. Meanwhile, Gulfstream got permission to open on June 25, which qualifies &#8230;<br/><br/><a href='http://www.horseraceinsider.com/on-the-line'>Calder&#45;Gulfstream conflict turns ugly early</a>]]>

From here, the winner looks to be Orb, who came into his own this winter in Florida, where most of the winners of the preps got ready.

The six most recent Derby winners have all gone into the Run for the Roses off only two preps as a 3&#45;year&#45;old.

                        <![CDATA[About three dozen horses stabled in Southern California have died suddenly over the past couple of years. Initial reports have tried to sensationalize the tragedies, reporting two of the horses had traces of rat poison in their system. However, the rat poison was found to be at trace levels unlikely to cause death and investigations of all the deaths have turned up no evidence of foul play thus far. This, of course, hasn&apos;t deterred racing&apos;s detractors, including The New York Times, &#8230;<br/><br/><a href='http://www.horseraceinsider.com/on-the-line'>Equinegate at Derby Time: So, What&#8217;s New?</a>]]>

Not true. They could take on the boys in any number of Derby preps, just as Genuine Risk and Winning Colors did before wearing the blanket of roses.

                        <![CDATA[The new Kentucky Derby points system has taken a lot of heat, deservedy so. Supposedly changes will be made for year two. If Churchill Downs wants to do something dramatic, it should cease awarding points to any juvenile race. The one exception should be the Breeders&apos; Cup Juvenile, whose prize should include an automatic qualifying berth in the Derby. If this isn&apos;t also the Eclipse champion, he, too, merits an automatic pass. Being a champion of a generation should matter.

Calder has scheduled its biggest day of the summer, the Summit of Speed, for July 6, the day Gulfstream will launch year&#45;round racing. Calder also has repositioned three big stakes days for December, when it ordinarily would have given way to Gulfstream&apos;s premier winter meeting.
