hard to go against asiatic boy here. but i'm picking eu tambem. and i'm curious to see how adil does.

I love Asiatic but it'll be some test here. Eu Tambem to get Frankie off the mark for me with Traffic Guard loving the step up to 9f!

In the American pools Bartola (Arg) is 25-1 which is an insane price. She should be 8-1, tops.
Asiatic Boy is tough to look past, however.

This Bartola seems interesting at the 23-1 I'm looking at now, but A. Boy looks tough to beat.

Using Folk, the outside horse & the before mentioned Bartola underneath the fav. JACK JUNIOR could be a "bomber" in tri's.

Godolphin bought Eu Tambem to keep him out of the World Cup, where he could have spoiled the party for their super-horse. He beat older horses in his Dubai debut and beat better horses in Argentina than Asiatic Boy did.

agree, A Boy is real tough.

But would love for this filly to steal it and shock the world. (and fatten my account)

wonder what that time was.. wow

Bad ride on Eu Tambem - Dettori pushed him into the race too early. Always a fear when a horse changes barns, get a new rider.

So, is Asiatic Boy the new Discreet Cat?

Don't think it mattered though.

fantastic..our oooohing and aaahing after his last few races were merited. Surprisingly, he may be headed tp Royal Ascot rather than the States!

if you like A Boy his exactas over Folk or Tambien are more with him on top as the odds on fav.

Yes and no...covered him in the place spot, but didn't use him underneath the winner...story of my life!
