I 100% disagree, but maybe thats because a mile has always been two turns that the tracks I have played.

For better or worst I'm standing with Arrogate. He wires this field.

What does that have to do with you saying you are "sure" he is running in a race a month from now?

El Deal bypassing Sprint..

no, no, please stay we need pace :rolleyes:

-bt-

Like anyone was beating Drefong.

I've seen three really good works (thank you XBTV) from possible sprint horses.

I think I'm priced in to Takaful in the Sprint(guessing PJ goes in the Dirt Mile).........of course I'll carry Drefong on the multi's.

Does anybody know for sure which barn Constellation is in these days ?
Looks like she's no longer in the Hollendorfer barn.....

Imperial Hint particularly benefits from El Deal's departure and should be strongly considered as a B.

Bob Baffert is the current trainer.

yea, Baffert picked up a number of horses and so did Baltas, think it was LXFoxwoods or something like that, I know Tapped left Hollendorfer for Baltas.

I'm interested in Tribalist in the Turf Sprint. Think the 6.5 at Santa Anita is a touch far for him. And he loves Del Mar. His 3rd today hopefully will leave him with nice odds if he runs. Does anyone know if he is a definite (if healthy) starter in the BC?

I dont get why they ran him today, was baffling to me. Gotta think 3 races in 5 weeks is probably a bit much for him.

Thought the same thing
