I knew when he claimed the horse that he'd be bringing him to Keeneleand. But Even if there aren't many turf sprints carded. A straight 6f, 5.5f on the main maybe better?

Gotta love a message board where we're debating where/what races a fringe allowance horse should be placed lol :)

Also,

Admittedly I didn't see the replay of the race. Just read the chart that he lost by 2 lengths. But I did have reservations going in about him going 6.5f. Assuming he was close up and he flattened out late?

Anyone wanna loan me 32k lol? Instead of using it for BC wagers, I'll just claim this guy and get him back in turf sprints... somewhere... Does Churchill offer a lot of turf sprints in their conditions book? If so, why not wait until their meet starts? Entered in R10 Sat at Keeneland.

I concede that I'm being a rube over a marginal allowance horse. Guilty. As. Charged.

Won easily at 3-2 on the poly today and claimed by Dane Kobiskie.

Just saw the result. Impressive.

Dane. Allowance Turf Sprint. Laurel. Do it. Please.
