DD,

LOL.. Easy on Marcus.. I love Hersh.. LOVE him! Everybody at DRF loves him. He's funny, smart and fresh and his sardonic appearences on ATR always amuse me. He's hardly jealous of me either as I'm still pretty sure he has no idea who I am.. His laying off SWLY may have been done to help keep her price square as a favor to us...

Handicap (Elliot Safdie), Hermis (Bill Howard), and Sweep (whoever?) all have Sumwon on top in their selections. Mr. Hersh is either the only one who is correct, or VERY, VERY WRONG. I guess we'll see on Wednesday.

I have to second this, Marcus seems like a cool guy and I enjoy his sense of humor at the Saturday handicapping sessions at the track. To his credit he does sometimes go in creative directions when he makes his selections, and makes a concerted effort to find something other than the chalk. yeah I often disagree with him but that's true for most others as well.

The one predictable thing about him is he seems to be in love with any runner that Chris Block sends out. Marcus will always select a Block runner if one is entered in a race, of course Block does enjoy great success at AP so its not without reason.

I wouldn't read anything into him not selecting Sumwon to be in the money. It won't be the first time he was wrong!

I think, with the other DRF handicappers putting her on top, Sumwon's price will not be square. If her price is square, I think we can thank Todd Pletcher for entering his horse in this race. If Pletcher's horse wins, we can add a few curses to those thanks. I don't think that happens, but the time off and the Arlington poly is a concern (but hey, I'm a worrier).

When she hits that stretch in the lead, you need to flip your hat around backwards so she wins this time!

The last thing you need to worry about is getting her home. I am the king of getting horses home at the top of the stretch, all I need is my program and my right leg....

Scav to the rescue... I guess that's what we needed at Churchill.
