Heard he was going to the Haskell.. but I see the reports on bloodhorse and BigBrown, CoolCoalMan top the list. No mention of Pyro. Was looking forward to seeing a Pyro/BB matchup. Anyone know what the deal is with Pyro?

Answered my own question:

"Other Steve Asmussen-trained horses on the work tab included Pyro, who is being pointed for the Jim Dandy Stakes (gr. II) July 27, and Z Fortune, who will make his next start in the West Virginia Derby (gr. III) Aug. 2."

I'm a bit disappointed Pyro is going to the Haskell. Could he be dodging?

All in all, looks like a good field will shape up. Mint Lane is definately a good horse, I would like to see him in the Haskell. I used Mint Lane to gauge how good Casion Drive was. Icabad barely prevailed on Mint Lane while Casino Drive romped on Mint Lane. Would like to see how Mint Lane rates against Big Brown.
