McLaughlin told me the night of Belmont that HH was doing great.. He's stalled 2 down from Jazil. Looked very healthy. Seemed nice too, but all of Kieran's horses are kind. He wouldn't be there if he wasn't ready. McL is top notch off the break.

It certainly turned into a tough spot with the field that's entered. Sounds like he'll be ready, but who knows what kind he is as a 3 year old?

Henny will most likely win that race.

Every horse has to start somewhere and losing means nothing.

Having said that....depending on who actually shows up you are certainly supposed to bet against Henny Hughes.

Thanks but I was suggesting that these races always seem to have scratches.

zippyneedsawin · #7 06-29-2006, 12:25 AM

ahh... gotcha. Yeah, a horse like Keyed Entry is a good candidate for that.
