I don't dislike Henny Hughes, he's a nice horse, but there is no correlation between his performances on the racetrack and the adulation he receives around here. He will certainly have to step it up to beat his competition Saturday ( though I never warmed up to Silver Train ) all things being equal. He might but I expect him to be an underlay.

I think Dancing Spree is the only BC Sprint winner I ever bet. I liked Very Subtle, but there was no exacta offered on the race ( incredible but true ) so I bet doubles....and lost when Epitome beat Jeannie Jones by a nose at like 60-1.

I like Silver Train. I've seen enough of him at Belmont to know what he is capable of.

Tough to deny him on his home track!

Was happy to see that butcher Biancone lose him.

It UNGLUES me to select a horse more than 5 MTP.
By far the best thing to happen to Henny.

This race taught us a few things

1 Silver Train is not goin to BC Sprint
2 This is gonna be a nice BC race
3 I am now on HH bandwagon even though might take Pomeroy in the BC

Pomeroy looks ready to go and might even get a good price on him, no 2/1 like HH
