Tizway and Twirling Candy?

I wonder what the chances are that Tizway even makes the race.

We'll see. I hope for Bond and Clifton that they get the chance. He worked 6f (1:14.1) today up here..

She will get drowned if she runs in the Classic.

Could you expand on your reasoning? I thought she proved herself well against Flat Out in the Woodward.

Not saying she will win but I don't see her drowning either.

Flat Out isn't much.

I think she'd have problems also keeping in touch with the field. Pace wise.

U forgot Ice Box who according to Zito is a GO

"It's his favorite track and probably be his last race, maybe, you never know, so why not?" Zito said. "He's trained good, he's fit now, he's got all the races and Corey (Nakatani) basically said he made a mistake (being that far back early on)."

It's hard to knock anyone who takes a shot in races, especially since we all complain about horsemen picking spots throughout the year.

O I agree with u, I got no problem with them taking a chance(they did pay for him already) if there is a spot open. I would rather have fields of 14 with the fave 3/1 then fields of 6 with the fave 6/5

Guess there is no point in running him in the Dirt Mile since Jackson Bend is already going there tho?

If Jackson Bend runs back to his race this weekend, everyone else is running for second I think.
