Lucky you for being able to jump in your car and see her!
Okay ed I'm getting really mixed up so maybe you can help me out here.
I Am Sam was the heavy favorite but came in 2nd over the weekend, right?
Some of these horses i do like a lot. Fritzy Boy, for example.
The problem is I can remember him being 3rd to C'est La Guerre (was that the Derby?) but not much else.
The Hombre is another and I can remember being really happy when he won something at Doomben but cannot remember what or what he's really done since.
Firebolt...can't remember the names of the races but I do remember being so impressed with him (even though they weren't G1s or anything).
Illuminates. Well that was a lovely win over the weekend (but weird to see Raihana do so poorly
).
So the odds are looking like this or rather so the odds are looking like this???
The full Mudgway market: $4.50 Mufhasa, $5 Wall Street, $6 Keep The Peace, $8 Katie Lee, $10 Pennacchio, Vonusti; $12 Fritzy Boy, Miss Maren, Run Like Al, The Hombre; $14 Illuminates, Bulginbaah; $21 Beautiful Girl, $31 Vosne Romanee, Veloce Bella, Hold It Harvey, Firebolt; $41 Eileen Dubh, Jacowils, $51 Lamington Vegas, Salvatore, My Astron, $101 I Am Sam, Spare A Fortune.
The odds for Keep the Peace seem too low and (most of) the rest seem too high. Muhfasa and Wall Street seem about right.
What's your take on this?
Are some of the odds absurd here or is there stuff I'm not taking into consideration?
Does it take Muhfasa a while to get going? I remember his two nice wins earlier in the year (and being surprised which is so moronic) and was curious.
Who was the horse who almost fell in, God I cannot remember the name but it was a G1 (I think!) mile race at the very beginning of the year? Do you remember that?
Last question (sorry! You don't have to answer all or don't have to answer all at once. I know you have a life) where is Coinston (you're groaning, aren't you?
) Bluebird these days? Have not seen that name in forever. Honestly I don't think I've seen it since he won the Derby... (God remembr that? Remember thinking Down the Road had it and then...)
Oh and Imabayboy! Will he be racing or was he retired?
Thanks ed!
