I like 3 horses today at Belmont:

1st#8 Sleeping
2nd #6 holy time
8th #9 Half Heaven

What do you guys/gals think of these today?

The 8th is a total guess race. These horses have been knocking heads against each other for years. Flip a coin, its anyone's guess as to who fires and who doesnt.
That said I like the winner to be Little Buttercup from the Todd Pletcher barn. You dont see many chances to get a logical contender from Pletcher at decent odds.

Regarding the first race, I've got to tell you that I do not like your eight at all.
I'm keying the 2, Jodif on top in the first.

In the 1st I'll take Parade Girl, I think Channing Hill will bring this filly home, but what do i know!

Nice pick Gales! (He said while wiping the egg from his face)
I couldn't pick my nose again today.

Friggin Finlandia today....Seriously, I am done for like 3 years because this rat. I TELL EVERYONE I am at Arlington with, PLAY THIS HORSE. Horse splits horses and hangs like a friggin shirt, had every penny to win and place, he gets up by 2 lengths and I YELL "YES" and walk away, I get to my box and see they are showing the 5 as the winner, "HUH"....ABSOLULTELY UNREAL...

I saw that one but didn't bet it. yeah the five closed like a train to get it late.

Thanks.....(LOL)...Not only did I feel like an ass as she split horses and had a two length lead and I am yelling YES!! but doesn't even FIGHT for the lead. Kent rode a great race, horse needs blinkers, but my guess is that she doesn't rate with them...Very disappointing, cost me another $600
