If can't jump ship on Cotton Blossom yet. I gave up on Sunriver at the wrong time, and I'm not letting Pletcher do it to me twice in the same week.

Sunriver was trying something new for the first time, Cotton Blossom is lining up to get beat by the same horses in a similar race as she already has. Keep that in mind...

The alternative, for me, is to single Dream Rush. If I did that and it cost me the Pick 6, I would jump off a building. Normally, I am not afraid to get beaten. But on big days, I am.

Cotton Blossom isn't going to beat you, don't worry.

I can't believe that so many of the handicappers in the DRF don't pick Dream Rush on top. . . She really towers over this field. . .

Dream Rush has a great chance of bouncing off of her last where she faced a very weak field-she'll be a huge underlay that i might try and play against completely. I like Boca Grande to get a nice setup and I'm not giving up on Cotton Blossom just yet-she had some trouble in the Oaks and I like that she's cutting back to a one turn mile.

She could regress significantly and still win. . . I'm obviously not playing her to win, but she makes the pk4 a pk3. . .

I used her. But I am rooting for 4 of 6 to pay something.

I couldn't have been more wrong on her chances. Nice call. Basically broke my day...
