Miner's Reserve was certainly not being used as a rabbit in the Jim Dandy. He's got a different owner than Fly Down - and he was in there to win the race.

Confirmed

Super Saver
First Dude
Pleasant Prince
A Little Warm
Admiral Alex
Trickmeister


Probable

Trappe Shot (Either here or King's Bishop-Kieran said wants no part of Discreetly Mine tho)
Afleet Express
Miner's Reserve
Friend or Foe
Concord Point (With LaL out he is Baffert's Plan B with Garcia aboard)
Ice Box (With the Frenchman)

Possible

Fly Down
American Lion
Golden Moka (Winner of Prince of Wales)

Last night on Facebook, Charly's page said he is going to be out for a while with a bone bruise.

Guess he is out then:D

Should be a big field no matter what

Best line about Trickmeister is he is going wire to wire and he will wear down First Dude!! Gotta love IEAH

Thank you

No problem-probably is 1 or 2 more horses considering the Travers but no idea,those are only ones I have seen so far. Add Golden Moka,no clue about the horse other than 10-1 winner of Prince of Wales

Were you saying there that Julien Leparoux is going to ride Ice Box? I like that change a lot.

NT

I don't - Lezcano's a perfect fit.

Lezcano is riding this meet like garbage and has been horrible at Saratoga in the last two years. I'm not saying he's ridden Ice Box poorly thus far but I'll take Leparoux on a horse from off the pace over him.

NT

That is the plan if Ice Box runs. Leparoux gets the mount


Lezcano still has the mount of Fly Down if he runs

I hear ya. Lezcano is one of the 5 or 6 jockeys on earth I actually like - and while Lep isn't bad .. he gets bet a tiny bit. It's only a slightly negative switch that won't make much of a difference - but it will be perceived as a positive one by a lot of bettors.

After First Dude's last race...i think they finally need to just go in a 1x.

It looks like Miner's Reserve will be Out and Ice Box/Fly Down In if Zito has his way.

Zito says they gotta find a new jockey for him and he doesn't think Miner's Reserve can do anything with First Dude,Trickmeister and A Little Warm out front

Afleet Again and Steinbeck were mentioned as possible by the NYRA and Zito will choose which 2 out of his 3 will run on Sat.(Ice Box and either Fly Down or Miner's Reserve)
