I like Shaggy Mane. She loves Gulfstream and should be on the good stuff Saturday now that she's with Dutrow.

Too bad the Nafzger isn't re-entered in the Shirley Jones. . . I liked her last week

titan of industry fires big shot, exacta with Celestial Comet

There is absolutely a great value play in this race in #5 Cherokee Focus. Both his mare, and her first baby, Dean's List, improved once on the lawn figure wise, and Cherokee Focus is already fast enough to compete in this race. He also had a very interesting trip last time, being checked at the start, and then being 4w. At what I think is 12/1 ML, absolutely a great play IMO.

Speaking of horses named Celestial, what in the holy heck ever happened to Celestial Legend, the Queen of Laurel?

The Palm Beach, to me, is a horrible betting race. I can't find an advantage in the race and it looks like 8 of them have a very legitimate shot to win.

Pass.

Shes My Eltish is by NY based sire Eltish. He stands for $3,500. So you had about $6,500 in stud fees for the winners of the Bonnies Miss and the 2nd in the Fla. D.
