War Pass- Next Start

[whodey17]

Zito has all sorts of options for War Pass. I would like to see the horse at Tampa. He could go in the Sam F Davis on 2/16, then the Tampa bay Derby on 3/15. Then he could travel up north or to Keeneland for the Bluegrass on 4/12.

I think you can rule out any race at Keeneland. Nicky hates polytrack. Of the six meets at Keeneland from the fall of 2003 through the spring of 2006, Zito was 1st or 2nd in the leading trainers standings at five of those meets and 4th in the other. In the last three meets since Poly was installed, he is nowhere to be found.

Well he (Zito) is nowhere to be found in the trainer stats at any track these days. But, I think there could be an case made to prep your horse on a synthentic surface, prior to the Derby. I think Zito will send War Pass to New York, however I would like to see War Pass at Keeneland.

Hasn't War Pass done enough? lol

So far he is an exciting horse. It is hard to imagine him getting 10f's but who knows till he try's. Let's hope he stays sound and someone comes along who can hook him early. So far he has toyed with his competition.
