I'm going to take a shot with the Dutrow horse Frost Giant in The Skip Away, I thought his last was good enough to make him a contender for this one.

He'll be bet very hard today. . . Deservedly so, however. . .

I think the morning line is deceiving in the Skip Away. I don't think there will be huge support for Gotcha Gold. In fact I'm expecting him to be off the board again. Frost Giant should be the favorite imo. The other horse I feel that has a decent shot is Better Than Bonds.

race 9 #2 Gottcha Gold

# Wanted no part of Cushion track or speed duel from Post 12 at Santa Anita

# Drilling smartly at Gulfstream for return

Risky ticket here. If I can get past the 1st leg then I have a good shot.

3,7/2,9,12/2,4,8/1,3,5,8,12
$90

Dutrow has said Frost Giant cannot be beat.

Im hoping Gotcha Gold can create enough space early and the track carries him home

I can't bet the cheap bastard. One race on the dirt isn't going to sell me. If he juiced him real good then fine.

I don't have the past p's in front of me, but when looking at this race the night before. He did race against gr.1 types in Europe. I hear you about the 1 good dirt race but the others don't have alot to offer. The #2 looks like the danger from post 2, though I want no part of him at the 5/2 ML price especially with Lopez aboard, if he is pressured CC won't know what to do with himself. Not the most reliable rider...

Well that makes him a lock or..... Last time I remember a Trainer saying that the horse lost badly...Well from the standpoint of his last race he did look good doing it.

Dutrow entered Mr. Umphrey to be the rabbit for his other horse ( Frost Giant )...
Umphrey will press GG into submission if he isn't scratched.

The horse that gets helped the most by the rabbit is Hunting. I can't imagine GG is going to rate here at all and Frost G is going to have to pass a couple decent ones before Hunting comes along. I like Hunting today.
