We'll see how they do (and where they are spotted) next time out.

Entered on Thursday's 8th race at Aqueduct. 2-1 morning line, so we'll see if there's any value here.

The moment was right but the price wasn't. Good one, otherwise.

Not that it mattered but I thought Stewie Elliot's ride was a hoot in that race.

Every day I see him ride Smarty Jones looks better and better.

I had a much better opinion of Elliot when I didn't get to watch him ride as often.

I hear you. The same happened to me when he came to NY for the winter of 2005. I had never seen him ride and gave him the benefit of the doubt......and then I saw his performance.

Matt Carothers of TVG went on and on about what a great rider Stewart Elliott is after the Broadway last Sunday. He talked about what a great gate rider Stewie is- WRONG, then he talked about how tough he is to get by in the stretch- WRONG.

Take Asmussen away from Stewie and he wins at 10% maybe.

I really thought Bartola would be there if not win the race. When she pressed the pace with Devil House for the first half mile, I knew she was done.
