I bet the 3, Elate was better but it was the dream setup.

Did you hear she was intimidated in her last race? I heard Greg Wolf mention it 75 times the past week of telecasts.

Ive been a fan. I think her maiden win signaled she was very good, then a lot went wrong. Her last 2 feel like the real Elate.

She is very good now, which is great.

I am likely, as someone who bets, going to be against her next out as she got a great trip and setup.

Also, what the hell was the ride on the 8, i made a small wager on her, and while she was never winning going 6 wide 6 wide at a mile and a quarter is never going to win anything, she actually rallied to be 5th which is nuts to me.

Man,those Brendan Walsh horses always look good appearance wise,Proctor's Ledge was all the horse today...........Walsh is a very good horseman.
Proctor's Ledge has looked like new money since Lasix was added........a very nice type.

Elate skated by a pretty nice one at the pole,she's getting real good.........I suppose the BC Distaff would be her long term goal ?
Well........that could be a major race if they all make it to the gate.

Pretty funny exchange on Fridays preview of the Alabama between Andy and Paul.

Paul's handicapping has more than held up this meet, for all those that derided him, and he hasnt even had that much time to get to really know that circuit.
