yeah, absolutely no excuse, horrible math on my end, no idea where I got that from. She still sucks

You're such a dick.

Gotcha.

I wouldn't mind seeing her run back on the Poly again at this point in her career.

After she wins the Beverly D., that is.

English Channel?:tro:

If he's the best turfer we have had over here in the last 10-15 years...I think there's a poignant point somewhere in that statement.

About what? How to hit place bets?

On English Channel? Thinking that he did win a few. 13 for 23 or something.

Oh! :)

I love it when you and I agree.

I loved her in the Prix De Opera last year. She's sort of the forgotten filly in the Aga Khan's all world 3some with Darjina and Zarkava. Amazing trio for one stable and we haven't even mentioned Mandesha yet or the filly that finished an unlucky 2nd in the HK Vase a few years ago whose name escapes me at the moment.

Thanks I remember betting Kastoria that morning, Still mad over that ride by Kinane.

ZERKERIYA,However, she operates at a very different level to her illustrious older sibling: having twice finished runner-up in Longchamp maiden races under Zarkava's regular pilot Christophe Soumillon,

Sounds familiar huh...Nicanor?

I'm just getting home from AP, I pulled into the parking lot and thought I was at the Breeders Cup :zz:
Never saw so many people there, way more crowded then last years Million crowd, people saving lawnchair seats down by the rail sucked.

on a no-stakes non-weekend day? why the crowd?

Fireworks..it was nuts. If they had 32,000 for Fathers Day, they had to be close to 40,000 today

Now possible for the Prix Jacques Le Marois...

Does anyone know of any Euros / South Africans defo pointed to Million Day?? Imbongi would be a nice type after his run today.

Yeah it was a nice run and good for Aqlaam. His first win since fracturing his pelvis (after winning the Jersey Stakes last year).

MdK's boy Russian Sage was being considered for the Million but had a setback the same week as Archie. :(

Sucks.

edit - De Kock reportedly now considering Imbongi for the Million. Hope so!

Are you guys and gals thinking like I am Gio Ponti will probably be the overbet favorite in the Arlington Million, add Einstein and this could be an excellent value race for the European afficienado's.

I would think so because everyone was talking about Gio Ponti's performance, including Pachenco who mentioned it multiple times throughout the day yesterday.

We'll see who shows up and take it from there
