Default Rite Moment & Laysh Laysh Laysh

Aqueduct 2/18- Laysh Laysh Laysh ...had a little traffic trouble

Aqueduct 2/9- Rite Moment... forgot to start running when the gate opened, still finished a closing second.


We'll see how they do (and where they are spotted) next time out.

Entered on Thursday's 8th race at Aqueduct. 2-1 morning line, so we'll see if there's any value here.

The moment was right but the price wasn't. Good one, otherwise.

Not that it mattered but I thought Stewie Elliot's ride was a hoot in that race.

Every day I see him ride Smarty Jones looks better and better.

I had a much better opinion of Elliot when I didn't get to watch him ride as often.

I really thought Bartola would be there if not win the race. When she pressed the pace with Devil House for the first half mile, I knew she was done.

I agree on the prices though both certainly did encounter unnecessary trouble. In terms of Rite Moment, if Contessa waits for a race like the Distaff BC and an out of town shipper comes back then the price may be decent.

Rite Moment obviously was at least several lengths better than the ( weak ) field she lost to the other day. However, I am dubious as to how long she will maintain her form. If she is to be taken at face value then she could have a solid year. I'll believe it when I see it.

Laysh Laysh Laysh would have won with a very good trip if he managed to get clear ( and win which is questionable ). I'm not particularly thrilled with anyone in that race. I know the Beyer fig was solid but I'll take a wait and see approach. The inner is creating a lot of figs I have trouble with.
