Gilded Time throws a router or two, but they (gilded times') seems to excel on the turf imo. I haven't seen enough of them though to be confident in that statement

Raining at Anita..LOL...Not a cloud in the sky on this side of town.Seems like G TIMES horses do pretty well on the off.Hate the 1 hole though.I need 8-1 to bet today..Don't think I will get it.

I like Gayego at this point, but he might be too slow and have distance limitations.

He is not good enough right now to beat Georgie Boy IMO, but he could pick up the pieces.

Don't like the rail.Not gunna play him.Still be a decent price for the derby(even if he wins.) Respect the 3,4,and 8 too much to take less than 8-1.

If nothing else, Gayego is a nice horse to look at on the track.

Nice race by the top 3. Georgie Boy much the best. Gayego on the improve.

The Santa Anita Derby is going to be one heck of a race. Cali wins the Derby this year IMO. The only thing that I didn't like about this race was that Georgie Boy didn't switch leads.

Gayego didn't relax like I was looking for.No doubt he is a hard trying horse.To me,he looked better sprinting.Wasn't running easy like he did sprinting.Too much like hard work.I guess he deserves another try 2 turning,but I don't think he wanted it.
