I'm going long with Deputiformer. He's got a good foundation and like the breeding. 3rd off the layoff and should like the distance.

I like the Casse runners, Palmers and Took the Time, and Ginger Brew.

Santana Strings for an upset in the Highlander, and Marchfield in the Singspiel.

Come home safe everyone.

I'm going with Rahy's Attorney next up at Woodbine. Great record on this turf(6-5-0-1). Currently an overlay at 5-1 with 13 minutes to post

ninetoone 06-22-2008 02:39 PM

Jungle Brew.

Bobby Fischer 06-22-2008 02:45 PM

singspeil is very tough to handicap.

rahy's attorney could like the softer course and may be an overlay.

As a fan I would like to see Ramon Dominguez take the 4 mission approved wire to wire, that would take a great ride.

Bobby Fischer 06-22-2008 02:55 PM

that is what a speed jockey on a turf route is supposed to look like!!!

ninetoone 06-22-2008 02:58 PM

he's one of the best jockeys, period.

my miss storm cat 06-22-2008 03:26 PM

I suck.

Congrats to all who had the winner(s) so far...

Bobby Fischer 06-22-2008 03:57 PM

Not crazy about solitaire for this race. I could be wrong but he may be better on turf.

palmers looks good in the paddock


one of these guys like palmers or D.flutie could strike the front late and gut it out if everyone is exhausted

Bobby Fischer 06-22-2008 04:13 PM

what brew?

Its Not Bourbon...

ninetoone 06-22-2008 04:14 PM

ArlJim78 06-22-2008 04:38 PM

Not For Bourbon ran on the wrong lead in the stretch and still managed to win.

Basically Not Bourbon stalked the pace, took the lead at the top of the stretch and held off Ginger Brew. It was a little ways back to Solataire. The key to the race was Not Bourban relaxing early and having the kick when the Jock asked him for it. He was getting tired in the end but you could say Attfield trained him to his fittest level, he needed it against a game filly.

Danzig 06-22-2008 05:03 PM

she was just a bit short of him at the wire, exciting finish!

But anyway, just to add something else-
Woodbine has really good beetable fields in a lot of their races. Big fields on turf and poly, big prices, and they do only $2 wagers for exactas, tris, and supers, so the payouts can be pretty big. Y'all should get off your Belmont/Church/Holl-hood 6-horse field preferences for 2 seconds to try it, and you might find you'll like it

There was aboot as much value on Woodbine's sunday card as wed-sat combined at Belmont. I know it is an event day, but it made a fan out of me. :tro:
