I thought Lady Marlboro was very impressive in her last race.

You must have really dug Scat Daddy in the Derby last year.

Going with Surf Cat one last time and putting him on top of Circular Quay.

I think Surf Cat drowns this field and I am highly dubious of any pletcher horse off this long and with the track closings hard to believe he is ready to run.

Damn....another of my old favorites makes it back to the winners circle today.

Atta boy S.C.

just watched the replay....man I have missed seeing that beautiful stride of his. I hope this is a sign of good health and a good year for him.

As maybe Surf Cat's biggest fan, I was not impressed today. He didn't look like the Surf Cat of old to me. Solis was getting into him to get him into the race. The old Surf Cat would have been dragging Alex along with him and would have blown by them in the blink of an eye instead of just grinding them down. I was glad to see him win a race finally but either it's running on junk or he's lost his old brilliance but that wasn't the same horse that made me think he was arguably the best horse in the country in 2006.
