Default Week Five, Day Three ('twas the night before Travers..)

Have to hammer tomorrow [Aug. 25th, 2006|10:02 pm]
It's imperative. Gotta nail it. Not sure how.. pick six? Pick four? Combination of the two? 'dini is a lock.. Henny's close to a lock.. I like Ashkal Way a lot.. I like Sweet Talker a lot. So know that if those four horses get it done, or if 2-3 of those four win and no total bombs come in.. I'll have it a few times.

Frankel's horse in the seventh, On Board Again, is a must bet.. And here's rooting for Chucky Simon to get that elusive win with Brilliant Son if OBA doesn't run.

Well, it's the big day.. About to get outta here so I can get (hopefully) five hours of sleep.. Gotta be at the track for about fourteen hours tomorrow.

The coronation tomorrow..

And on a related topic.. HOW THE **** ABOUT DISCREET CAT TODAY.. I really can't remember the last time I was that blown away after watching a race.. 'dini had a similar performance in the 'Dandy, but I was EXPECTING him to roll.

I mean.. This horse apparently was short.. Was facing a solid field.. Coming off a long layoff.. Broke from the far outside.. And just ****ing totally romped. All by himself. He probably could've won by twice the margin he did.. Then to bust out 1:21 on the timer.. This is gonna be a 150 Beyer.. It's almost unfathomable what this horse is capable of.

Enjoy this time, racing fans. In the span of two days, we might be seeing two of the best 3-year-olds in a LONG, LONG time.

Have a fun, safe and profitable Travers day, folks.. 'diiiniii to the rescue..
