I also happened to see that Circular Quay was entered in the Va Derby as well.

Interesting to see Swingit back on such short rest after just taking down an allowance at Arlington last Wednesday. Looked darn good doing it though....

I hear ya B., but other than DOA...who in there is to be afraid of? Especially in a $200K race.

Don't get me wrong -- I'm thrilled to see her back in again. I know she closed in on a runaway speed horse who really looked overmatched on paper last week, but she looked just awesome doing it, regardless of the other factors.

I wonder what the price will be on Swingit....might be worth a "swing." :D

Christmas Kid.

Good point...and Kent D. has been riding the grass really well as of late.

watch Guidry's horse Ciao

doa needs to be afraid of half of this field

Hooves, you are absolutely correct. She should have come up to run in the Lady Canterbury (a race that she had been nominated for) last Sat. going a flat mile for 100G's. The race was won wire to wire in very slow early fractions by a horse that was just claimed for $62,500 at AP.

Interesting race. 10 days and a big ship off a huge effort for Swingit, no thanks!
Seems strange to see Jerkens ship a Grade 1 winner to VA for a non-graded stake, other than the fact her breeder/owner lives there. Could outclass the field, but her turf #s are definintely slower than her dirt efforts.
Dreaming of Anna will only be a pace factor. Why no Douglas?
Only 2 horses have won at the distance. Take a look! One of those will get my $$$. Nobody hotter than this trainer.

Saturday is Million Preview Day at Arlington... lots of big races and he should be riding for Pletcher... wants his mounts for million day.

snow cone at a price

I like her too

Silence Dogood.

S.H.O.D?

yeah.

Nice S.h.o.d S Winning At 65 Perc And In The Money 97 Perc..:d

Silence Dogood could have distance limitations. Notice how she backs up in her longer efforts.
