Hopefully Alpha goes straight to the Breeder's Cup and takes a bunch of money now.

Congrats to Alpha and Kiaran on a big win...Looked like Bill was not happy with the loss via his reaction post-race on yesterday's NBC feed...

Don't want to "diss" Jude Feld who said that Alpha had absolutely no chance on HRRN Friday (have a lot of respect for the Pontiff of P6), but anything can and does happen at the SPA...One of the biggest handicapping angles over the years at Saratoga continues to be "horses for courses".....

Someone is referred to as the "pontiff of the Pick 6"?

I think so. I have only listened to the radio show a few times. I also have heard Ellis Starr is referred to as "The Uber-capper" on the show....

Great nicknames...

I know he's not going to be the favorite or anything, but any dead $$ is a good thing. If this is the last line on his form, maybe he could sneak down to single digits?

I agree with you on this, he will take dead money and whatever Alpha takes will make him an underlay.
