I just looked at his 2nd race at SAR. His 1st one was excellent and I wanted to see if he'd had a trouble trip. He wasn't really pinched back or steadied, to any meaningful degree. In fact, positionally, he got a perfect inside (draft) out trip. The shape of the race didn't work to his advantage, however. This guy can thus fire 2 good ones in a row.

In Fat Land, his last race was off the charts.

A case where I think others are better but I can't overlook that last race.

Then again, I still can't get over his 1st race back this year.

you make no sense... i dont care if the card is a week away... the pp's are out, and i already have most of the bets i will make race day....

here is my pick 4......


2/2,3,4,5,9/1,3,4,5,6,9,11/5

for 35 i think that ticket has gigantic potential.

I'm impressed. I printed the pps out as soon as the numbers were up, around 4:15, and other than doing Byk's show for a half an hour, and taking another short break for dinner, I have been working straight through....and I still have another hour or so to go.

You're fast!

ok can we get serious now...
what do you do with benny the bull ? class wise he lays over this group, but everyone knows horses always dont come back from dubai the same, most horses need at least a race back... the only thing is this field IMO, did not come up that deep or talented... what does everyone else think? then there is abraaj who comes off of a layoff, and runs gigantic, horse he beat has since came back and run huge.... but abraaj is stepping way up, the only other time he raced against this class did not end up good for him.

I guess if you actually did bet you would care a little about handicapping, but when you're playing with monopoly money I the best thing is to just throw some crap on the wall and hope it sticks.

lol.. whatever i do bet... and you know that... and where in that ticket am i missing anything ? teach me

I knew a guy who threw sh!t on the wall to see if it stuck.


He's in a mental institution now.

The first race on Belmont Stakes Day will be worth watching with the Woody Stephens Stakes in mind. Commandeered was close to the pace in the sprint on Preakness day and was passed by Silver Edition. If Desert Key runs, he was very close to the lead throughout that 5/14 overnight stakes @ Belmont where they ran a hole through the wind through the first part of the 6 1/2 furlong race and finished the final 1/2 furlong in 7 seconds.

A forum member reaches out to you for help and not only do you turn your back on him, you attack me as well.

I'm getting a kick out of all you MoFo's attacking Saturday's card.
