I guess Montauk will be 2-5 in the Remsen.
Given Todd's impressive army for this year's BC, I'm a little surprised you are dying to hitch your wagon to another one of his overhyped impressive debut winners. How have those panned out over time?

No love for Mask? His professionalism, while earning a similar Beyer fig, doesn't do as much for you as Montauk's flash?

Man 5 minutes ago talking with Byk now posting on here you are all over the place. Interested to see how you like Melo playing with your boy Westbrook this year. Seems to be a good fit and they got hosed last game with that illegal screen at end. cheers

Default Juvy Filly Turf.
So the Rushing Fall hoss handled that Daddy’s a Legend hoss pretty easily breaking her maiden. Daddy’s a legend looked really good circling the whole field like they were standing still. He was 11th out of 12 up the backstretch and destroyed the field. Very impressive. Maybe those euros take money and we get 4-1. I think chad brown runs 1-2 in there.

This horse looks great and no way should be 12-1. This is a tough race for sure but be careful leaving him off your ticket. Good luck.

we all know Voting Control is gonna be much lower than 8-1, just based on who trains him. I think Masar kind of fell into favorite as this is a wide open betting race. How Encumbered is 15-1 and My Boy Jack is roughly half that price @ 8-1 is a little mind blowing considering he's beat Jack on the square twice already.

Gonna take a stand with Sands Of Mail @ 30-1. I think the oddsmaker really messed up this ml, and i think this horse has a big shot. Aside from him, none of the Euro's knocked me off my feet but i hope they all get pounded at the window.

I'm with you. That trainer almost won this race at 18:1 at Keeneland two years ago and why would he ship him off his last disaster if he didn't feel there was a very real excuse. His race two back can win this. Very usable horse at a big price.

I also agree about Voting Control, and think he's as likely, and probably more than likely, to win as any US based horse. He was much the best last time.

I said before Montauk ran that he was likely Pletchers best baby. So yeah, I'm hitched 2 him. I think he was very strong and the 2 Chads that ran behind him could be OK. I guess we will find out later down the road.

Wide as wide could be on the favorite. Still not sure he wins but still, would have been nice if he could've saved some kind of ground.

Well, given Todd had nothing at that point ( please don't tell me anyone smart thought Hazit was anything ), and the word was all over the place for weeks about Montauk, that was hardly doctoral work on your part. As for the two from Chad behind them, while any horse "could" be OK, I suppose, I won't be holding my breath for their Graded Stakes wins.

Any chance you claimed Zulu the other day?
