Prairie Meadows - Iowa Oaks & Derby
 

For those that do not have access to watch Prairie Meadows on TV, just go to ESPN.com click on more then horse racing then live racing.

I'll be posting selections on this thread prior to the running of race 6 Saylorville 100K starts at 9:50pm eastern. Race 7 G3 Iowa Oaks - Race 8 Iowa Derby

I've been looking at the stakes here all week long. I really like Try to Fly in the Derby. I know he's stretching out, but his running style looks like a stalker. Inside post and all, he looks good. Can't count out Pletcher/Valazquez either.

Jax, I can't blame you, it's definitely wide open affair.

Does anyone like Greeley's Conquest??

I like Going Ballistic. . .

Does Le Chateau have a shot in the Iowa Oaks?

I alreay put some money down on her. I figure she beat Sumwonlovesyou so she has to be good. Hey, Robbie's been winning a lot this year

I do, but after your comments about Wilko I might reconsider. :p (just kidding)

I just like to make insane comments once in a while. :D

My pick 3:

6th: 5,6
7th: 6,7,9,10
8th: 1,2

Love him.

Prairie Meadows

R6 - Saylorville 100K

# 2 Fiery Pursuit - Overbrook homebred will show some speed and D. Wayne dangerous in the midwest.

#5 Ready to Please - Disappointed as the fav in the G3 Winning Colors last out for Pletcher.

#6 Miss Macy Sue - Loves distance and course. 2nd in last year's running and coming in off powerful G3 Winning Colors score. Looking for 4th win in a row.

R7 - G3 Iowa Oaks

#7 Marietta - Top 2 finishers in G3 Selene at Woodbine came back to win their next start. Good post and upgrade in rider.

#6 High Again - Bounced back after dismal Kentucky Oaks effort. She had it set up on a platter in the G3 Dogwood and couldn't have her picture taken. She's a major player versus these gals.

#2 Irish Party -Must slow it down up front is she wants to be around late.

#10 Le Chateau - Hard fought victory over Sumone (DT Stables) and the Spence homebred will be looming large late.

R8 - Iowa Derby 250K

#8 Codio - Ligthy raced colt for Asmussen looks ready to roll now that he's past some physical issues.

#1 Winstrella - Should have no problems going two turns for the 1st time and Johnny V will have him in striking position turning for home.

#7 Greeley's Conquest - Local star scored in the prep and is looking for his 5th win in a row.

#3 Sahara Heat - We all know that AP Indy's get better with time and he's razor sharp right now.

Late PK 4 starting with Race 7 - 6 7 with 1 7 8 with 1 5 with 3 4 9 = $36

Good Racing Luck

no form here, whats "Smoke'n" Joe Talamo's horse look like, out of the O'Neill barn i believe?

-bt-

I bet I can guess why!!! :)

;) ....I was told that he shipped over well and is training great....we'll see, fingers crossed.

Looks like a winner to me. PM has been playing nice to the early speed and no doubt he will be on the lead. i think those on the outside will be compromised.

Good to know, I'm certainly hoping for the best!

Who is the awful track handicapper with that ridiculous soul patch?

Gus....I clicked on Emerald from the ESPN Live Racing feed....and they don't have it.

Hope all is well.

Get an account with Youbet.

I have one with youbet.net....and they are not showing it on there either. Maybe there are showing it on youbet.com?

Then get a brisbet and then you'll see it! :p Oh yeah, but you'll get nothing else. :mad:

Yes, both Emerald and Prarie M. What is this Youbet.net? I haven't heard of them? Are they affiliated with .com? If so, try logging into youbet.com with your youbet.net account info.

1.08 & 3 - WOW Miss Macy Sue

youbet.net is for the non-wagering patrons.

edit *she tied it

Kev, click on Prairie (T) and you can watch it on ESPN - live racing. ESPN only shows a few tracks and PM is one of them.

Awesome filly. PM is a fast track but she did have to come a little wide. What BC race could she be entered in? Is there a F/M sprint?

Ok....I am a professional stupid human....I can get PM....just not ED...

and they are running the Iowa Oaks and Derby at ED....so...yeah...anyways. Im stupid.

Sorry....long day.

Kev, I was beginning to wonder what races were at Emerald tonight, LOL

The Washington Oaks??:o

It's sloppy and I just missed the early pick 3 having the 3 favs in the 3rd leg. sux.

Appears that TVG will be showing the Iowa Oaks.

Yipeee!

Great showing by Humble Janet (2nd) and La Chateau (4th)!

Marietta won.

Janet was closing ground fast coming home, thought for a second she would get there

-bt-

grrr really makes you wonder how Sumwon would have done. I didn't see the race

Bet Le Chateau to show and that's why she ran off

can't believe Humble Janet got place... oil well

would of could of should of boxed my picks.

dang.. looking at the Super there

found the replay

could Robbie have gone any wider on the turn? He showed no interest in show money

of course.. I had him to show

I lived on Marietta
you'd think I would have played that hunch :rolleyes:

Wasn't a super on that race for some reason, the tri would have been nice.

There's not a thread at Hollywood....Byk picked the 8 in the 3rd and Scav was totally against. Any thoughts? I think she looks good.

Damn, Had Humble Janet to win and in my pick three. Almost.


I was at Oaklawn a few years ago, and an oldtimer next to me said "you got to watch out for those Humble horses." He said they started out naming them Humble 1, Humble 2, Humble 3, etc., up to about Humble 20, Then they made them stop using numbers. Don't know if it was true or not, but I think of him now every time I see a Humble horse.:p

She was inbred. Out of Humle Retha and sire Humble Eleven.
