I feel your pain, and he probably should have won today, but the BC field will be much tougher. Do you even think he'll run?

I was surprised Garcia was back aboard after last time. I watched that race with Mott. I can't believe he rode him back.

Bekhabad? He's good, but I'll take my chances with a horse who will be 4x the price at least. I like Plumania more if she runs there.

I assume he'll run. . . why not?

From my experience with Mott, he doesn't seem like one to change jocks after bad rides for whatever reason.

P.S. On the turf tomorrow? Like some horses in the baby races.

Only the 10th is off.

Blanket finishes at 12 furlongs should tell you to downgrade the whole lot.

Hmm. . . well. . . my point was that there wouldn't be a blanket finish if Al Khali was given even a half-competent ride. Thanks for your valuable insight, though.
