Unbridled's Heart ran with front wraps today....maybe had something to do with his poor showing maybe it didn't....he could be just another fragile Unbridled's Song...

It was a tough card at Belmont IMO. I maybe noticed one value play through the first 7 races (Serpe/channing hill? turf race)

yea i hit nothing at belmont sad thing is i had the 18-1 victory gallop in a pick 3, cought the first 2, and needed akebono, then i go and make a win bet on him, double the pain

The Dwyer looks like a good race to make is his start unless they decide to run in a non winners of 1. If he improves and runs a good race, he can run in the Jim Dandy and the Travers.[/QUOTE

that would be ambitious, especially off of todays effort

UH is a lightly raced horse. The possibility of upside exists. But we'll find out soon if he is for real or not.

i get accused a lot on this website of falling in love with every horse that runs good.... i never touted UH once, i dont like him, never did like him, and dont think he will turn out to be anything close to a travers winner. decent horse maybe, but hes no ROMAN EMPEROR

So much for taking a day off, eh Action Jackson?

I wouldn't worry about other peoples opinions if I was you. The great thing about a messageboard such as this is you can exchange opinions with people who have pretty good knowledge of horse racing. Difference of opinions brings out the best. Sometimes people get offended by the written word and an argument ensues. I have strong opinions but I try to keep an open mind to other points of view. A lot of times I'm wrong and I learn a few things and sometimes I'm right and learn new ideas.

this type of thinking may explain your lack of success at the windows. bet the best choice, not the one you like-and don't ignore those you don't like.

i always found that thought process kind of flawed anyway. how can you 'not like' a horse? you can think a horse is a bad bet, but it's nothing personal.

but then, you did say you look at cards searching for giant's causeways-so i think you've got a way to go before you should start throwing serious money at the tellers.

when i say dont like, i dont mean a dislike, not in the way your making it out to be, i dont dislike any horse... i guess i mean not nearly as much as everyone else on here, especially the ppl who were making him a top 3, 3yr old off of a maiden win

He beat the Belmont winner in the Sir Barton, the same race that Sarava ran in. Only 2 Belmonts I attended with TC on the line were 02, and 08 and the winner of the Belmont last raced in the Sir Barton on Preakness day.

considering the state of affairs all year with the 3 yo's, it's hard to say who is good or not. unbridleds heart had a very good maiden win. so he didn't back it up, yet. doesn't mean he won't.
i saw that georgie boy is back in training, that's one to keep an eye out for. also saw the news that adriano is moving to bill mott, motion lost about a dozen horses or so. still only halfway thru the year, things are only about to get more interesting.

Malibu would be good race for Georgie Boy to point to. He's a Calbred and could prep in the stakes day for Cal bred at Oak Tree.
