After looking at this more, I like For You Reppo a lot more...

He looks like the logical horse here. I didn't care for Curlin's last work, so I'd take my chances with For You Reppo.

I think i'm losing my mind.


Officer Rocket is the play of the day. I just have a feeling this horse is going to have a breakout performance.

I like Curlin here with Deadly Dealer the only horse that has a chance to beat him. For You Reppo should definitely be played in the second and third spots and I guess I could see an outside chance where it is too long for both Curlin and Deadly Dealer and he gets up for the win. I think Officer Rocket is a sucker horse here, he doesn't strike me as a closer that wants more distance. If anything I think nine will be too long for him. Delightful Kiss is another that should be played in third. If Harrow Land runs well in the Northern Spur then I will play Slew by Slew in third as well.

2,10/2,9,10/1,2,(8),9,10

Yesterday I rewatched OR's last two races. He was making very nice moves at the end. Whether or not he is going to improve off of those races, remains to be seen. Maybe I am wrong, but I didn't like him because he was a closer, I like him because he runs hard everytime. I am not totally sold on Curlin. I think OR turns the tables on him today.

Oh those works after the next to last are so key.




You would have tossed Secreteriet in the Belmont.
