They're scared of Big Truck, of course.

If you call 9-1 overbet and finishing a fast closing half length behind Fierce Wind running poorly, then you are right on point PG.

Maybe he likes the second place money here. And if War Pass gets ill he has a match race with Atoned for all the marbles!! Big Truck and Atoned are going to make out like bandits in this spot. Who can blame them??

Hm. No entry of Signature Move? Is he headed to the DL? Any update?

I liked how he looked on the poly and thought I might get a decent price this weekend after his putrid outing in LA....

Who stretches out successfully in the San Felipe.. On first look I think it is Georgie Boy. I like the 7fr work and his trainer has a high pct sprint/route.

IMO...Georgie Boy would need a bus ticket to get the distance

So you dont think he will finish the race?

He will finish the race and I like the fact that MC Baze will be in the saddle to put him in the right place to pick up a nice check in a weak race.

Southwest and Indian Sun might show alittle more today, but I don't see them winning.

It's Georgie Boy in this one.
