I could not hit the side of a barn today, hopefully I can make up the deficit and then some tomorrow. Good luck to you tomorrow!

well, i don't know if he's posted on here since his latest 'exile', but he's still reading and sending private messages...
i was gone all weekend, so i got grief for not posting a reply to your message immediately. i'll have to do better.
apparently i stalk him, altho he's the one who always sends me insulting pm's. go figure.

From the list of probables there are some wicked fast horses on that list anyone think that could cause an upset? Bayern,social,Pablo I think they may b faster horses at least on paper. If those horses show up I think that could b an issue for chrome. Opinions?

I think it definitely has to be a newcomer, if an upset happens. Chrome still has the best chance.

10 pnt move up 05-17-2014 07:35 PM

Hard to like Social Inclusion in that spot, though he seems like a really nice horse.

Can Ride on Curlin get a better setup than he did today? If you betting him your betting the distance moves him up.

Arletta 05-17-2014 07:49 PM

Commanding Curve will be the one I will be watching.

Alan07 05-17-2014 09:34 PM

Social Inclusion belongs in the Met Mile, not the Belmont Stakes on June 7th.

I hope your right, but he was the only one closing on him in the Derby and he will have more ground to do it in the Belmont. Just a thought and will have 3 weeks to toss things around in my noodle :D

I thought closers typically don't do well in the Belmont?

Good point, but lots to consider in three weeks and see how it shapes up.
