It seems like there is one of these races regularly at Gulfstream... A corking head to head battle between horses that earn very big figs. When these are produced, I always think of First Samurai and Keyed Entry in the '06 Hutch (110 Beyers) and Read the Footnotes and Second of June in the '04 Fountain (113 Beyers). And note of course that none of those horses were really the same after those efforts. Fawkes is very good with one turn horses, and it will be interesting to see how soon Big Drama runs back. I also doubt Kenneally wanted Carlos involved in a gut-wrencher first back from that kind of layoff.

I do love me some Eltish Star. I've been betting Paulino Ortiz overlays since the late 80's... I botched that GP P4 in more ways than you know actually. Have to keep kicking at the can there though because finding and playing horses like Dr. Smarty Jack (13-1), In Speight of It (35-1), Molly Malone (30-1), Sweet Theresa/Romin Robin (20-1/17-1), etc., will get it done regularly enough over the course of the meet to justify the heartbreakers.
