He looked like a million dollar horse in the post parade. I don't bet paddocks or post parades (although i may cancel if a horse looks terrible), but he was so much the best visually it was unbelievable. Aquarian looked very average. I dutched them both and played the race5-race6 double a few times. The Talent that Alaazo showed in his maiden race was in fact real. It was hard to tell from the replay but that is what I said that I thought was evident. The raw times, beyers,bris were a red herring without study of the race replay. The track wasn't as much of a conveyer-belt as it has been recently , and as expected the 8 Atwell set the pace, and not Mambo. Around turn 2 Alaazo got his opportunity and with the 2 shooting a dud , only had to beat the minor contenders. It wasn't a great race and no one here is looking like a star, but at least Alaazo looks like he has some potential to be a 9,10 furlong horse.

Baloney about the fig being a red herring if you watched the race.
The simple fact is that a completely different horse showed up today than ran at Monmouth in August. Overall, his trip was fine. Whatever minor trouble he caused himself early was completely mitigated by the perfect trip he had after that. |

EDIT - TO BTW - it's not important anyway
what we need to do is interpret THIS race for ourselves, and make some profit off of it when they run back, if such a profit is possible. I have to give my eyes a rest and stop thinking about horses for at least an evening. Good luck guys , there are a few Wednesday races at GP Last edited by Bobby Fischer : 02-04-2008 at 06:28 PM. |
