You said he should be 1:5.

As far as handicapping this race.....they draw in about 52 hours. I have, however, handicapped the first two days at Belmont. I've found 12 better races to bet than this year's Derby.

You found 12 races in the first two days at Belmont that are better races to bet than a race with an 8/1 shot that is a near cinch to run in the exacta, while in a race that has about 15 throwouts in it!?

It seems to have stopped raining. I will remain optimistic......it's hard not to for the best day of the year in NYC.

Don't forget, we haven't had any rain for weeks really. We could use some.

What MTO's? They'll be scratched when it's fast and firm

I like the card.

Would love to, but taking off Friday already to be at CD for the Oaks... unless I catch a surprise midweek cold!
