Which is pretty potent....except when you count on it eg. India

Oaklawn is getting soaked right now. Track should be soaked tomorrow, at least to start.....rain just keeps coming.

I dont know what happened in the backstretch of Officer Rocket's last race. He just took off way early and then he got backed up. Then after the turn he came on again late. Of course he was passing dead horses and Curlin was just pulling away from everybody but the fact that Officer Rocket used himself twice is very interesting.

He is going to have to get the correct set up but he looks like he is vastly improved. I just wonder what was going on in his last race with the premature move. Tough bugger though. I think he likes getting dirty. If the track is sloppy it could get interesting. Should not be a problem for the Rocket to get the rail again and make a late run.

Curlin has had no test yet. He looks very, very impressive but lets see what happens in the two spot. He will most likely get dirty here. Lets see how he reacts. He waited patiently outside the leaders and got them in a burn up last time. I dont think its gonna be the same this time even though the speed is there again for him.
