7th Gulfstream - What?

TheSpyder · #1 02-22-2009, 10:32 AM

12+ horses in this race and it's hard to make a case for any of them. None have a mare that has produced a turf winner.

Can you make a case for any of them? I'd serious like to hear your thoughts. I can go only by jockey/trainer angles and take the 11, the firt time starter.

Thoughts,

Spyder

of the horses that have started I like the five Dirty During.
his two year old form was easily better than the current form of the others.

certainly the kinda race that a first timer with any kind of ability could take down.

9,10,11 (all FTS) and the 5 Dirty During

McPeek has a firster that is well bred for the turf, using the Tomlinson ratings, and he can get a debut winner over a route of ground.

Small stable of Mario Morales can get a turf winner first crack.

Again nice Tomlinson #s on Would and Could so he might wake up & hit the board.

11-3-4

Interesting that besides one horse that has run, no one can make a case for all the rest. Like I said, I find it interesting there are so many horses that don't make sense in this race. Just find it strange.

I can see the "all" button producing a crazy horse in pick 3's for big money

The 12 is a touch interesting but the post will hurt

$5.20 winner. I've learned that when it seems like an ALL button situation, you probably shouldn't press it because a short price will win.

Story of GB & my summer at Arlington. You love a horse or two in another leg so you build the ticket around them and find an inscrutable race like that...press ALL to buy the damn thing, and you get a $5.60 winner.

Every. Single. Time.

I believe this summer's strategy will be spend less and lose gracefully rather than being humiliated by that.
