I thought the 4 and 5 were the whole horses and the 1 was the half but I suppose I could be underrating him.

Good luck with Continental Reins off a 19 month layoff in the 6th. I'm guessing he'll be able to see 'em all. It's a trickier race than it appears on paper. Riptide isn't impossible but there are a few that are open. Holiday Trip will beat me on the front end.

all is good when you see "seeking the money" entered lol.. and my opinion is weak at best of late..

The 8th is a good race. A couple of horses in there are coming off less than stellar trips/rides.

hate to say it but the 9 owes me some cash and will probebly come up short again......the 2 is the wildcard to me the dist does not seem to suit but when good he ran with some monsters

The 6th is basically the very good turf race they carded for Friday that got rained off. I can't come up with anything cute in there, as I figure the race goes through Moral Compass and Continental Reins. Holiday Trip, is indeed, quite the chandelier.

IMO, if you take horses off 19 month layoffs, especially at reasonably short prices, you are crazy. Good luck to Continental Reins and anyone who bets him.

Jerkens is very good off of long breaks, and even though this one is super long, the horse still probably has a few good races in him with only 14 career starts. Plus, although I said it was a very good field before, there isn't anyone I can really get excited over at a price. Riptide appears slow, Cloud Nine is running for the third time in four weeks, Gravitational and Big Wig are coming off of considerable layoffs and were slow last year, Riz Sauvage is decent, but beat nothing in his two recent wins, Holiday Trip is a hanger.. Who's your alternative to Continental Reins and Moral Compass?

Lava Cat hasn't run since November.

You know I'm not definitively giving out who I would bet in here. I've said enough.

That would be pretty incredible considering he never ran in 2007.

To me Big Wig will be way overbet because of his connections and pedigree. Yeah, maybe he always did need more distance, and it is interesting that an AP Indy won going 6F, but his races were SLOW.

I don't get Cloud Nine at all.

I beg to differ.
