I had to reread the Fizzlette entries. First time through, I thought I read Sutra's name on there.

Weird.

Other than Persistently, the Frizette is pretty weak, however the Champagne is a great race. The definitive 2YO race this year ( not run on turf or fake turf ).

The Champagne sould be a real nice race....there's five in there that I really like....

Blu is likely gonna need more than a little luck to get his filly's pic taken in the Frizette.... wishing him luck nonetheless

The Champagne will probaly turn out to be better than the BC Juvy.
I wish Charitable Man was running, would be a great race for sure then.

Gonna predict that Cribnote will be severly over bet.

The Champagne is a race worth getting excited over, some real horses with real futures in here.

Hope this means Gomez won't be getting on GP any longer (I wish). What a brutal ride last time out. Good horses don't deserve that ****.

hrfan 10-03-2008 12:14 AM

does anyone know why Wesley was 19 out of it in his last ?

hrfan 10-03-2008 12:23 AM

This card is actually better then last Saturday IMO

shes a nice filly, but the 1 and 10 will both make her earn this

There's plenty of speed in this race.
It actually looks like its going to set up perfectly for Persistently.

Does anyone think War Echo has a shot? I guess it's a crapshoot with some of these fillies who have just come off their maiden breakers........

I like Ventana in the Champagne. I know he sat a nice trip last out, but I was impressed with the way he kicked away. Break Water Edison is a little intersting to me as well, with a more patient ride.


I think people make a mistake of being overly concerned with loose speed in turf races.....especially on fair ground with give like we have at Belmont. Thou Swell is WAY out of his league tomorrow and won't have any real impact on the race. Take a look at today's 8th at Belmont and Baron Von Tap for a good example.

Gio Ponti and Court Vision will most likely run one-two. Why waste your money fighting that?

Slambino will beat Thou Swell.

I was just responding to the opinion you posted......I wasn't really thinking about how much you were betting.
