Buh bye
Wise move... She was ok here but it's tough for a new shooter to draw decent mounts... I'm shocked that Dale Bennett didn't use her more often

I'm no big fan of hers but she was a top 6 rider in this colony - just didn't get much of a chance to improve on that and the fact that the Chicago guys didn't use her much is strange...

They already knew she sucked

I know it's all relative. I just couldn't ever catch her when she did win...so I'm sure that has just a touch to do with my disdain for her.

Anyway, back to the racing. If I can get 5-1 on Linemaker in the 6th, I will take a plunge

You should get it. That race is the best betting race on the card. I have changed my mind several times. I'm sure Clement will take a ton of money and run second, I just can't figure who is going to win.

In the 8th, Da Plane is ready to repeat his opening day wire to wire score....

Yeah, the 6th is a beauty of a race.

Da Plane got away awfully soft in that wire to wire score, don't you think?

That was close. He got away from Willie for a bit during the first quarter plus. Odds were a bit lower than I expected.

That's a huge jockey switch on Alpha Bear, but if I'm taking a price in there, I'll take Flitter @ 12-1.

I think you mean the 5th. Im not crazy about betting horses back after efforts like that at 93-1.

He thinks she sucks too. It's Spencer that has the crush on her, which is odd in itself

I am no fan either, she is actually absolutely lighting up Hawthorne right now. She is a very nice girl though, she rode Rochelle for us at Arlington last fall and was pretty descriptive, I thought.

As for her agent down there, he is Junior Alvarado's agent here in Chicago, not sure what is going on with him, should be interesting.

What Rude said about not using is kinda weird, I thought for sure Bennett would use her religiously.
