She's a Tiger

Breezed with this on her head

Attachment 2364

She’s a Tiger (pictured above) worked with a video endoscope, a video camera and nasal tube attached to her head to film her airways while exercising. This suggests she’s had breathing problems recently. Regular exercise rider Antonio Gutierrez was aboard as she unintentionally worked outside of Richard Mandella trainee Station House. She’s a Tiger was slightly wheezy when walking at the barn immediately after work, and drank a good amount of water.

The horses next to CC really don't have much gate speed. Good post for him

he runs the turns so well he'll be gone by the time they hit the backstretch

wow! what a day of racing, new york style :)

3-5.....really?

seems about right to me, maybe 2-5.

How've you been Root?

Yeah - crazy. He'll be over even money at post time. the NY faithful will be unloading cash on Wicked Strong. I'm guessing 8-5 on CC; 4-1 on WS at post.

The more the merrier - I'll be happy to take full advantage should he repeat recent history.

You're bugging. There's no way he isn't odds-on.

Maybe even, no way he goes off under.

Question
 

heard some one say that victor Espinoza is like 2 for 58 at Belmont...true?

The Woody Stephens is INSANE.
Its a 13 horse field and realistically 10 of them can win.

Wow. The Acorn is just as deep.

Pletcher has a horse in every race, easy to find the free pps
http://www.brisnet.com/cgi-bin/brisw...9/summary.html

I really like Bayern in the Woody Stephens.... Can't wait for that race.

......It Is, Its Nice To Have Belmont Back On Top.

I'm curious to hear what the people who opposed this scheduling move by NYRA have to say come Sunday.

It's BC v2.0 time Saturday. Absolutely incredible card, over here salivating already.

Steve you going to be at the track Friday and Saturday?

true

Just hard for me to take that horse on the rail at 5/1.

It's a beautiful card. The best in NY I've seen since I started playing the horses. But I'll continue to dislike moving the Met Mile away from Memorial Day.

How much do you all think Chrome will drift up if the following happen:

Life in Shambles romps (Tonalist work mate)
Social Inclusion finishes off the board
Victor Espinoza rides a bad race in the Brooklyn

Any impact?

None whatsoever. . . Maybe on a Thursday at Aqueduct those things would have an effect, but not here.

anyone get psyched out by cards like this? i was looking at it last night and on my 1st run thru a card i just highlight stuff that interrests me, good workouts, odds in past races, where they raced etc etc and it usually takes me about 45mins. last night i was at it for an hour and a half and was only thru race 6. Like i said does anyone out there look at a card like this get overwhelmed?
