I like Premium Tap.

I'd like to see Invasor and Premium Tap fighting down the stretch like MDO and Pleasantly Perfect in 2004. Box exacta though I'd give P.T. the edge since he's been over there for awhile.

..... already routed invasor in dubai..... he is another G.Z or D.M......he makes 3-2 look like a gift.

I'm rooting for any of the american owned horses.

God that was awesome. What a memory. Even though PP had it in the bag. He had already given MDO the ole evil eye.:D Funny thing about that race, I am life long friends with his exercise rider Crystal, our moms have been best friends for over 30yrs. We had a big old breakfast get together at her moms house to watch the race. We were so excited during the race that the phone starts ringing off the hook, it is 2 of the neighbors wanting to know what was the matter and if we needed the police. Seems we were cheering ole PP on just alittle to loudly!:eek: As you can tell by my screename I am alittle partial to him.

invasor!! his lone loss may have been vs discreet cat, but that was a year ago--and a rotten trip from what i understand for invasor, who was coming on again at the end. time to turn the tables, and get revenge for a blemish on his otherwise perfect record--and give DC one in turn!

thanks for posting the link. what a race by DC, man he's quick!

already have my tv set to tune to 404 saturday am.

DC

If u watch the start, Invasor breaks smartly but is under pressure from a long long way out, it looked like he just couldnt go the gallop..
should be a cracker alright. would love DC to keep his unbeaten run going but Invasor is just such a tough horse!

Invasor all the way.

Now the question is. If these two finish 1 and 2 do the Shieks separate them when they return to America or will we have an old school rivalry? I'm hoping for the later. Imagine the Whitney with these two going at it.

will they return to America?

I do believe that's the plan for Invasor, I thought I heard somewhere Kiran Mclaughlin wanted to defend the Whitney.

Invasor

I'll take the Cat

I cant believe Premium Tap is 9/2. Invasor is 6/5 and Cat is 8/5

Crap only 9/2 on Tap? Grrrr maybe he will go up.

I am curious, why can't you believe PT is 9/2? Do you think it should be higher or lower.

He was 27/1 in the Breeders Cup.

bernardini was a great horse but everyone questioned what he beat going into the classic, everyone was wondering if he could beat really good horses, with discreet cat he has already soundly defeated a champion on his own track, silver train that is, on a track he loved... belmont, i think its totally different to compare the 2.
