English Channel vs. Showing Up

Trust me, I have Twilight Meteor already on my watch list. Any horse that closes the way he did on Sunday, into those SLOOOOOW fractions and comes from last to first, you know he has the potential to be something special.

EC is a much more accomplished horse than SU. SU though is the best 3yr old turf horse. If he keeps progressing he can compete with the older horses. I stick up for SU because my friend was calling me a coward for letting Oracle and MP3 bash him when he went head to head with Kip Deville. The ridiculous statements before and after the race by them were nonsense, saying KD would have beaten SU by 5 if he had a good jockey is comical. I hope SU does well because I am going to get some freebies when he retires, but he is no Barbaro, not yet atleast.

EC is very good, but he will have his work cut out for him with Relaxed Gesture.

I happen to think Go Between may be the better of the two, but that is just my opinion. I think Manchu Prince is also gonna be good next year too as a 4YO.

Go Between could be, but considering Showing Up destroyed him in their only meeting I will stick with SU. We were told Mott's other After Market, is probably better than Go Between but he is still very green, and will run in the Hall of Fame at Saratoga. Manchu Prince doesn't impress me at all.

Im a big fan of Go Between because he is a PG baby and I was all over him in the Palm Beach at Gulf this winter.

Go Between probably will be the better betting value in the Secretariat. I am hoping to get 2-1 on Showing Up, but not likely. The field is looking very weak and maybe only 7 horses.
