In all honesty, after spending a good deal of time looking over the PPs today, my top two bets of the day remain a win bet on Street Sense and a Curlin-Street Sense exacta box in the Classic.
Street Sense's last work sealed it for me.

Juvy Fillies

#8 Izzara - She's been green, but she has an enormous amount of upside. She'll love the distance and many of the fillies here would rather be sprinting and will be weeded out as they turn for home. McAnally (HOF Trainer) has a very nice filly that will score at 5-1 or so. Load Up

Good Racing Luck

Grass Mile...

Nobiz takes money, the Euro takes money on the outside.

Why not Kip Deville? The horse is always in the mix.
Nothing super fantastic just seems to give himself a chance
in almost every race.

We will see how overlooked he is.

Excellent Art and Remarkable News are compromised by the posts. Will either be Kip or Jeremy in this one.

I still think EA has a good chance despite the draw. This horse is so adaptable with regards to tactics and race positioning. He has top class form when running from the front, and he has top class form when coming from the back.

He also has that ability to quicken in a few strides, often catching some of the best horses flat footed.

He will need a bit of luck, but he is definitley good enough to win this despite his draw. He deserves some luck after the year he has had so far. If he was given better rides this year, his form would read 1111..... all of those coming in Gr1 races.

Yes indeed. No respect.
Not only did the betting go as stated with Nobiz and Euro taking the money; I got a perfect frikkin trip on the grass. It has been an eternity since I have got that kind of trip on the grass. Blind luck finally punches me in the face.

The Distaff gave me a modestly profitable weekend. But if Hystericalady prevails, I'd be farting through silk right now.

Oh well. Now to see if I can get that Derby future down before the Nashua tomorrow....

You had a perfect trip AND the best horse. Kip was much the best, nice call...

Ive seen way too much happen on the turf.
My horse had a great trip. With a better
post, the Euro in the 13 spot would have
been tough to beat.

I knew the horse had the speed to get
a good spot. But I was certain the bottle
neck was coming when he was kept to the
inside. But the horse on the outside faded (Remarkable News)
in a perfect way and he got a free run.
Nothing on the turf comes easy for me.
Thanks to Corny for not panicking. I was.
