thanks Hooves. I think Body Blows has a realistic shot at a decent price. Meets what look to be several high-priced busts who are sure to be overbet. Sciacca's #s sure don't inspire confidence but the return of Cornelio V does. I also like Donk's Can She Dance off the bench at a price in the finale vs a pretty lackluster bunch. Luring JR for the ride despite the presence of an O'Brien horse in the field intrigues.

[blackthroatedwind]

I bet Body Blows last time and he had a perfect trip. I guess it's an easier spot today but he also won't be anywhere close to the 34:1 he was last week.

[the_fat_man]

He's probably better going 6 than 7. But he needs the race to collapse.

There are a couple possible bad speeds and he did lose to better horses last time. You're probably right about 6F being better.

He's certainly possible....I just have trouble taking the shorter price after he was 34:1 the other day.

[the_fat_man]

I don't like him today.

In the meantime, why is Cherokee Queen 3:2?

[Bobby Fischer]

castellano has a decision to make with FI FI FO FUM. Tough post postition to go wire to wire without catching 6 wide on the first turn....

"And fi fi fo F.U. 4 wide on the first turn...
and waayyyyyyy wiiidddeee
ohhhhh she blew it badddleee
A RANK opening quarter for fi fi ..."

your getting on bad side now...yes we all saw the race ..

[blackthroatedwind]

The horse was rank with the blinkers. Over blaming Castellano for that race is amateurish.

She stunk the joint up anyway. The bottom line is she's just not much horse.....and the board mush loved her which should have prevented anyone silly enough to like her beforehand from playing her.

[the_fat_man]

Anyone interested in some out of town turf might want to take a look at MTH R4.

2 interesting sprinters stretching out.

I typically never bet this angle, but this is MTH, after all

1) Mewow --- interesting late run after running very greenly on the backstretch

2) Echt -- close a ton in race that didn't come back --- however, there was trouble in this race and the 2nd horse was probably best

Looking to take a shot with Mewow, assuming I get > 10:1

P.S. Why West, butchered by Smith down in GP, and no longer trained by Tagg, is in today's 3rd at MTH.

I also noticed that Hooves.... 7-1 is pretty juicy in this sub-par field

totally true.

the whole entire race revolved around one central issue:
"could a certain horse clear from that post and get the easy lead"
it wasn't about snide remarks, it certainly wasn't about suckup this or suckup that. It wasn't about blaming a jockey.

JJ performed consistently with his expectations. Which is what you WANT.

It was evident BEFORE the race.

I thought the shug horse might win it before the race, but it was going to be a low quality race to wager on regardless.

these Turf allowance and lower at belmont going 9f+ are hit or miss and half of them revolve around a tactic or have too slow of a pace. A lot of bet backs if you see that and wait for a horse to be placed in a"real" race.

Manitoba Miss...

Maiden claimer next out?

[the_fat_man]

Let me try a late P4:

3,5/5,8/4,5/10,16
