He was a mortal lock in the Woody Stephens (yes I said so beforehand) and they passed for an Allowance race.

Did you copy me word for word?

Since the Haskell is the 12th, does anybody know if the Pick 5 will start in the 8th instead of the 6th?

I think it stays as the 6th- at least it did the last few years (when it started in the 5th.)

That's a terrible decision then. Imagine if the Travers wasn't part of a guaranteed Pick 4 or Pick 6.

I figured the Sunday card would be loaded. Their lineup on Saturday is dreadful.

I know that Trappe Shot is the "now horse" but...

does it bother anyone that he has not yet run 9 furlongs this late into his 3-yr old campaign?

He does have a nice race over the Monmouth oval, but he'll need to deal with that outside post.

All in all, I guess he'll be the fav in a very interesting Haskell....
