Green Birdie and Brightexpectations retired...
Bear Hero doing much better and back (R2, Griffin Trophy)..
Good luck to Good Job... 19 starts, 0 wins, rating of 21
, Douggie up...
Upset of the night... I think it's Elite of Chiu Ton (the former South Central who is not exacctly a win machine), Chadwick up.
(That's a nice field, btw... Helene Witty, Mighty Sun, Bullish King could draw in...)
Special good luck wishes to my favorite horse running tonight, Eight Plus Nine, in the final (won't win but whatever).
8 years old, 49 starts, used to be Adept and in his one and only start back home (NZ) Vosne Romanee was 2nd to him (field of 14).
Guyon has the mount for the first time...
This horse recovered from Colic back in 2007 and basically has one win a year so hopeful tonight is it but if not that's just fine.
