should sit the trip... tons of speed with contessa, and mint lane and the favorite.

It looks like a good overnight stakes race and I agree that he's far from a lock but I would not be surprised to see him put away Mint Lane and cruise. On the flip side I would not be surprised to see crack under pressure. Hence my reason for taking a small shot against him.

Gimmie Unbridled's Heart over the longest shot on the board (Hough's gelding)

Here's the lunacy of the CD situation:
I can't watch the CD races on TV. We're locked in with Directv for another year and I don't have Dish. I can watch the races on twinspires.com but I can't wager on the races through this outfit. However I can wager on CD races with my NYRA Rewards account. But NYRA Rewards does not provide video at their site.

You oversimplify to the point of marginalizing everything that is important.

Fair enough. I have that problem sometimes.

Hopefully Unbridled's Heart runs a big race and adds some spice to the 3yo.

Just kidding. The Fun N Gun was one of the most entertaining offenses of all time to watch. Anybody that can make Danny Wuerfel into a great player is a GOD in my opinion!

But hasn't it been fun re-living the ride, the quarter crack and the heat of last Saturday?

Hoping for something new to talk about...go Unbridled's Heart! :D

Track seems to be playing slowly thus far, will be interesting to see what kind of time UH runs (assuming he wins).

blackthroatedwind 06-13-2008 02:38 PM

The track has been very slow all week.

I thought so, but I hadn't seen enough dirt races to make that call. Even the early fractions are molasses.

KirisClown 06-13-2008 03:03 PM

Yeah.. he looked great...

ateamstupid 06-13-2008 03:03 PM

Looks like Mint Lane might be a nice three-year-old after all.

Sightseek 06-13-2008 03:05 PM

Results anyone?
