I was thinking the same--perhaps he's not right

English Channel is also nomintated to the BC Tampa Bay Stakes on Saturday as well...

I will play Interpretation if he makes it to the starting gate. Hes due for some good luck and a win soon. Hopefully Tommy Turner makes the trip of 1-195 to ride him, always liked this kid, hard working guy like meself.

never saw the front end of a race he didn't like...He will send from the gate...no doubt about that.

English Channel is a very aggressive type and doesn't always settle well early on, he's not the kind of horse you'd want to bring back at a 1 3/8 mile distance, off that long of a layoff.

Nice job of having her in your stable and for moving to second place in the TVG Fantasy.

Thanks.

I had a feeling Pletcher would run her in the Grade 1 against the boys and she'd be the favorite---which is why I didn't take anyone else for that race---so, I finally made what looks like a pretty sharp move this month.

However, I thought I was screwed at the start of the month, because I took Downthedustyroad when no one else ahead of me did. It's kind of funny how things work out when you think you're screwed, and how something goes amiss when you're confident you have the upperhand.

Honey Ryder will probably run 5th now...and Einstein and Ramazuti 1st and 2nd.

English Channel
 
English Channel is running in an allowance at GP on Thursday. Good opportunity to single him up in a pick 4 or 3.
