Maybe that should tell you something...

That La Ransom is a lock?

If that's what you are saying, I'm not that simplistic with my handicapping. There are way way too many factors involved for me to make that leap of faith.

Nothing is a LOCK, though she is one of my singles today...like I said way back when in this thread, the winner of her last is A LOT better than her last race would indicate. Lost Without You ran a super race 2 weekends ago. And La Ransom is actually a pretty nice filly. 2nd off the layoff and KJD back aboard, speed from the rail (those things added up to victory in October). I'm very happy they kept her in because I wouldn't have bet her entrymate. I actually think La Ransom is the speed of the speed and if she scratched out in favor of her mate, the pace wouldn't have been as hot. I just hope she shows the same zip as last race and I'm pretty sure she'll still be in front at the 16th pole, the last 16th is the question.

Good Luck today

I'm not so sure she is the speed of the speed. She could beat them all to the turn, but she has to break well from that rail. The 9, 11 and possibly the 3 could give her trouble on the front end, depending on their tactics.

Good luck to you.
