Yup, and I see no reason he should not be taken down for that.

He completely wipes out any chance that horse had and stays up. Mind boggling to me. :zz:

I needed him to be taken down...had the 8 in the contest :wf

I'm surprised he stayed up, as well. Guess the stewards thought the impeded horse wasn't winning.

I don't get the money on the 10 at all nor do I think the race sets up well for him. There are questions about much of this field. I think the 7 is very interesting here, had only 1 prior turf start against much better and has been running against better on both dirt and synthetic. Shelly Green has brought in several live bombs and I think this is a field where one can be put over. Should be sitting just off the pace set by the 1A (who is questionable on turf and was losing ground in his last late at this distance).

I was clearly wrong about the 7 and 10 but boy was that a bad field.

That pretty much does me in.

The 3 has a huge race on the course and at the distance back in 2013. Going to try to get him home with the obvious others.

What a chance to make some real money. Don't know if I win if clear but got beat 1/2 and was blocked, with the jock maneuvering for position, a good part of the stretch.

Nice job on the exacta Jimmy, but if that 3 gets clear you would have cleaned up.

Tough for me to get past the favorite here in the Belmont 8th, but I am a bit interested to see how the 8 does at a big price particularly if the pace breaks down.

The 3 is a trip horse out of the 8th. SAR going 5.5f

Keep an eye on that 8 next time out at Saratoga, I think he wants more distance, most likely 1 mile but that horse is improving by leaps and bounds since being placed on turf and could score at a huge price when stretched out if has pace in front of him.

dammit, forgot about snake oil charlie :rolleyes: not the first time he has beat me

Yet another major production DELAY @ WO. Simple things somehow become difficult up there.

And NOW they FINALLY SCRATCH the motherfkr. After taking all that time to reshoe him.

Let's see how long it takes to load the horses. I mean, they've been at the gate for 1/2 hour.

I thought it never rained in San Diego. :zz:

It is absolutely pouring here :eek:

Bel 9

I really want a closer here but the closers are really, really slow. The 6 is fast enough to beat this group but the 4,6,8 and even the 10 are pretty much pure speed. The big question is whether the 10 can rate. The 1 has a shot if can rate behind the speed and improve a bit.

Thanks, Tom. I have been on the wrong end of at least the last 6 photos I have been involved in, it is incredible.

It sucks it has to happen this time of year, I was really looking forward to opening weekend at Del Mar. I hope it doesn't decimate today's card like it did yesterday.

Ugh, Del Mar races 5 and 10 off turf. The 8th remains on turf.

Damn Manny Franco can't get the 9 out and has others get the jump on him, f*** me.

Agree.

DMR 3

Questions on just about the entire field on dirt and particularly on a wet surface. The 6 is 0 for 4 on wet surfaces but has a back race that was pretty good, have to take a shot at the big price.
