Make no mistake, she is a very very good filly. She HAS to have a firm surface to run on though. If she could find firm turf everytime she has run she wouldn't have been beaten too often, ya know.

If she doesn't win tonight i will be very disappointed.

The last race by Wait a While was sure visibly impressive at Saratoga. If she duplicates that one she will be tough..not much value though

dont know if Tango is truly good enough in a field like this but Id take her and My Typhoon though in an exacta. If she does win, it augurs well for our chances in the BCFM..

I think she is easily good enough. She never showed her top form over here in my opinion.

She wins today, and if not i will be broke.

Very.

Haven't got a clue what went wrong with Alexander Tango. I know that was a good race, but she ran like a drain.

Back to the drawing board.

Brad Thomas also mentioned Lahudood when he and Ken Warkington touched on the Flower Bowl on the Friday Night Racing at the Meadowlands show.

Thomas said he liked her because she probably did not care for the boggy turf course at Arlington and would appreciate the return to Belmont and firm turf. That being said, I didn't wager on her.

No doubt about it though, Brad Thomas is a very good public handicapper. Very analytical and very informative.
