Default Notable comebackers on Sunday

The ultra talented Gregs Gold who hasnt been seen since July of 2005 is back in the 2nd at SA.

Storm Boot Gold is back off a 7 month hiatus. He is very quick and very determined on his day and you'll see him in the 8th at Aqu. He was scratched out of Fri's Aqu feature for this spot.


Any thoughts on either of these quality horses?

Nope, didn't even look. I scale back in the winter, just don't like betting on non-quality racing unless something stands out. And Gulfstream is my personal graveyard.

I get a strange feeling (which my form just confirmed) that I'm a Yankee is that horse that you made me lose money on.

Not entirely your fault. But 24 minutes of "THE TAGG HORSE JUST LOOKS AWESOME" wore me down.

I'm a Yankee is not a turf horse. He was laimed last time by Pino from Tagg and Pino is good 1st off the claim but he is up against it in this race. I hope he takes tons of money though. Taking a stand against.

Interesting stat regarding turf sprints at Gulfstream... in the past week there were two turf sprints and PP 5 won them both, also for this meet, PP 5 has won 4 out of 10...
