I was at the draw this morning and there was a collective surprise at the table when Indian Vale was announced as the ML favorite. We had already played the "choose who you think will be the ML fave" game and I chose Unbridled Belle for the Distaff. I would have thought Indian Vale or one of the two 3YOs if not UB.

In Brad Thomas' defense, they were having him do those lines literally in seconds. He did the Turf line incredibly fast and seconds later Joe Tessitore was reading it. It was a very unfortunate spot to be in and I think perhaps the only error he made was in the Distaff.

By the way, Monmouth Park looks terrific and the forecast is getting better by the day.

Good luck to everyone!

Let's see.....Eurobounce/ Whodey posts that he was in short sleeves at last year's BC and was very comfortable and I laugh about the ridiculousness of that ( it was barely fifty and the sun was only occasionally out ) and he responds with some slur about my mother.

Sounds fair.

Well based upon a brief sighting at the Spa, I was pretty sure it wasn't black....
