andy beckeri was at arlington for derby day with a buddy who owns a couple horses.
his trainer and a few others we spoke to loved barbaro.
they were raving about his workout of 46 sec for 4 furlongs....in which he has not going full board.
after the derby, my friend's trainer thought that barbaro was "the next superstar".
i think he will win the preakness. bernardini (sp?) has a big shot to run second.
depending on who enters the belmont, i see that race being babaro's biggest obstacle.
i am surprised that brother derek didn't skip the preakness for the belmont. his connections must believe that he can win both.
good luck fellas.
