1. #9 Neosho Red (15/1)
2. #11 Wayoff (5/1) (Huge jock switch)
A. #3 The Alcova Kid (15/1)
B. #6 Holy Thursday (2/1)


If your right that it will be taken off then everything chnges as there are a number of horses here that seem almost like MTO's

Having said that why are you tossing the #1 Jump'ien with Douglas staying on after moving too quickly last race and running out of gas because of that move. If on turf the #'s are solid with almost 3 pair up's on the sheets and closing numbers are very similiar to 3,6. I agree Robbie is a trade up on the 11 but the 1 is a very competitive horse here.

Do you know something about the 9 that isn't obvious as first time grass, have never seen anything about sire Dave and Busters other than it's a great sports bar up here in Rockville (chain?) The numbers are very close to the
1's except this ones never been on green. Dam do anything special on grass?
TG wise, out of a small sampling, D&B's horses have jumped up almost 8pts. That alone is enough for me to include and play him straight. And if it goes to the Poly, his numbers are as competitive as anyone else in the field.

I am tossing the 1 because he is a hanger at short odds. I have seen the horse run multiple times and I don't care if this horse was as fast as Secretariat, he is getting zero of my money. He doesn't have the will to win in my opinion
