Doc Cheney, Birdbirdistheword turfing at Calder and SweetNorthernSaint sprinting at Turfway. They're all intersting races.

I thought Birdbird was a little interesting. Speaking of bad rides.....take a look at the replay of his last race.

Does this mean that you expect him to outrun his m/l odds tomorrow?
I certainly do.

I don't know what his morning line is but I expect to lose a few bucks on him.

It's a tricky race.

Yeah, it's the typical JOhnny Vee turf ride. Was he on?

Albarado....but you're right, it looked like Johnny.

I thought Albarado blew the first 1/8, then the horse was doomed. I thought he was as wide on the first turn as the second.

Interesting race. Locals are hopeless, save Stom In May. There is no known method of quantifying Juan Leyva off.

Further trouble.....I also agree with all this.

The AXTHELM has come up real interesting:

--Pleasant Strike off a very nice second to (a properly ridden) War Monger BC
week. Johnny V actually stayed INSIDE the other day on Dancing Forever and got himself a nice win. He might be growing
them back.

--Birdbirdistheword off the ridiculous trip in a nice race last May at CD --- can't see a wide sweeping move working on this
course, however

-- and, Sleeping Indian, of all horses, coming off of (reportedly) two perfect trips in a row, trying 2 turns for the 1st time.

Be interesting to see if the last one is competitive here; though the morning line for him is RIDICULOUS

Eddie Casto again takes the cake when I pass on him.
