Talent Search and Hard Spun

mp3 09-04-2007 07:59 PM

agree on talent search. should be in there. I was not blown away with Hard Spun in the kings bishop. They came home on the slow side. Not sure how he would handle elders at this time

hockey2315 09-04-2007 08:01 PM

I still think Hard Spun's a miler though. . .

what, no dream rush or la traviata?

jazil?

I dont care how you rank them . In the BC, Ill not use the favorite. This division is the toughest of all. So many that are so fast. Would not be suprised if a 10/1 will win the BC.

I agree...if you are going to play a favorite, the sprint is not the place to do it.

He's not necessarily a top ten sprinter, but Idiot Proof has proven he can run REALLY fast at Monmouth.

On a somewhat side note, I'm guessing the first quarter in the BC Sprint this year will be sub-21 seconds.

Surf Cat needs to win a race to be considered, too much is thought of his past reputation. He just flat out stinks now.

The Bid 09-05-2007 08:01 PM

Benny will win the BCS by 2

mp3 09-05-2007 08:13 PM

buddy of mine told me benny ran a negative 3/4's on the sheets. have to believe that a repeat of that number will win it

The Bid 09-05-2007 08:14 PM

Benny is a monster and will replicate that number, hell probably run a better number

mp3 09-05-2007 08:17 PM

are you suggesting a beyer in excess of 120 again????

The Bid 09-05-2007 08:17 PM

Yes, and a rag to correspond. Thast the first time the hrose has been trained by Dutrow, second time Dutrow is deadly.

Bobby Fischer 09-05-2007 08:19 PM

benny is a fast finisher that can stay out of a deadly pace, but it is still hard to close. As of now he seems like a good key horse 1st 2nd or 3rd

The Bid 09-05-2007 08:20 PM

I think an off the board is out of the question.

mp3 09-05-2007 08:23 PM

those guys at ieah seem to have a magic stroke of luck with there horses

I think the guy who picked him out for them deserves some credit ;)

[no it certainly wasn't me]

mp3 09-05-2007 08:31 PM

i owned a piece of a horse called sugar punch who won six in a row. Joe torre was one of the partners. The horse has since been retired and they bought me out of my share. I have a close friend named sandy robbins who does a great deal of business with them and i try to pick his brain one some of there horses. I wish I had the deep pockets to participate in a bigger way
