8/1: Saratoga (Day 9)

What kills me about Zada Belle is that they normally rip the good horses away from Hardy and give them to the sheik. But since when does a horse that walks over optional 35k claimers deserve to be taken away and thrown into a stake race as the morning line favorite? Especially when she got trounced in her only graded race.

I don't like Zada Belle and am leaning towards Graeme Six & Miss Macy, but wasn't that race over Keeneland's poly?

I love Graeme Six in the race. Handle Miss Macy Sue in her last even though Sue was off a little slow. But I like the stalking position she'll be in racing from the outside.

You talking about Keenlands Poly for the Belle race. It was but she also won over SA poly in an opt. claimer.

I wouldn't be totally surprised to see Any Limit steal it. Hoping Zada Belle keeps her honest up front..

EQUIBASE MISTAKE: Race 2

They list the 3 Casino Kay as 6 dirt races and 2 wins and a third where in fact those were all on the SYNTHETIC at HOL and SA...can we get correct info PLEASE?

also the 7 is listed as 5 dirt races where he only ran 3 dirt races...do they consider the plastic stuff dirt? They also list all weather so why list them as dirt? :evil:

hmmmmmmmm 1/9 on a 35k maiden claimer. Looks the best but who would risk that much money on this type of race. Im seeing flashbacks of Monmouth last Sat. in that stellar 3 horse field they had. Horse went off 1/9 and got blown by in the stretch. Nothing makes me feel better then seeing them go down and watching the look on all the chalk betters faces after they lost their money on them.

RULE EFFING 1... Never single an odds on favorite in a Maiden claimer...
Rule 2 See Rule 1..

That hurts
