Alas, #2 John's Rock has been scratched from Race 5, leaving only a field of 4.

Will today be the day for Bill Mott to get his 5,000th training win? He's got several legitimate shots at both Belmont and CD. Can't think of an easier guy to root for - always professional and classy.

R4: 5-4-2-11-12
R5: 4-5-3-1 [for what it's worth]
R6: 6-8-2-4-3
R7: 8-9-5-4-6
R8: 5-1-10-2-4
R9: 1-2-8-4-5
R10: 10-5-1-2-9
R11: 5-6-12-10-4
BEL: 5-2-6-4-1

Good luck to all and thank you to Plenilune for scoring.

The scores might not reflect it, but we certainly had plenty of excitement in yesterday's races, especially the two stakes. I was disappointed that the 5th couldn't count, but felt vindicated when Art Collector put on a great show. The stretch drives of both stakes were outstanding, with Santana justifying his trip from Louisville by finding just enough of an opening for She's a Julie to fit through for an upset win in the Phipps. I thought she was seriously off form, but that wasn't the case at all. In the Louisville, Admission Office dispelled any reputation for finding trouble by driving down the middle of the track to beat Arklow in a great finish.

Bill Mott didn't get #5,000 despite several good chances. Reminds me of ARod's quest for homerun #500 - you keep waiting for it to happen and I imagine he just wants to get it over with. Maybe today. He looks live in the 1st at BEL [fittingly named Road Home] and has three runners at CD who could make it happen.

She's a Julie looked like she was off of form and it didn't look like she had any races that had a pace that yesterday's race promised to have so I left her off my contest play, but in the back of my mind I knew that was a dangerous thing to do with any horse that has won a grade one race so for my real play I put a little saver wager on her. Didn't help me in the contest, but nice not to lose real bucks on her with my sometimes dunce like plays.
