agree on talent search. should be in there. I was not blown away with Hard Spun in the kings bishop. They came home on the slow side. Not sure how he would handle elders at this time

I dont care how you rank them . In the BC, Ill not use the favorite. This division is the toughest of all. So many that are so fast. Would not be suprised if a 10/1 will win the BC.

I agree...if you are going to play a favorite, the sprint is not the place to do it.

He's not necessarily a top ten sprinter, but Idiot Proof has proven he can run REALLY fast at Monmouth.

On a somewhat side note, I'm guessing the first quarter in the BC Sprint this year will be sub-21 seconds.

Surf Cat needs to win a race to be considered, too much is thought of his past reputation. He just flat out stinks now.
