I realize there are tons of other great horses in this race, but this is turning out to be a great rivalry.

When carrying the same weight, EC is 2-0 vs. Cacique
the one time EC lost to Cacique by a 1/2 length, he was carry 2 more pounds.

Every little bit helps in these routes.

I look forward to their battle for third place too, Kev.

There is no need for all this Gorella talk and debate about the Beverly D.

I'm telling you right now. Rising Cross is your winner

The weight break definitely helps her, but she is about 10 lengths slow of Film Maker, thorograph wise. RC top is a 7 and FM's is a 2...She is an exotic playa for me

Why are you so confident in Rising Cross? I'm looking over her PP's and I'm just not getting it. Would like to know your reasoning if you don't mind.

What's your deal tomorrow? Are you taking the dress off and UNLOADING?

I am confident in her due to her form behind Alexandrova in the English and Irish Oaks.

In my opinion, Alexandrova is better than Ouija Board was in her 3 year old year when she came over here and dusted our crop.

And Rising Cross quickened nicely with her and got a nice second at Epsom.

The races in England are of a different (and better) type in my opinion than anything we have here. And I don't see Gorella as being a top class filly/mare over in Europe, she just stands out here because she had an impressive run against our boys in the mile last year. She would just be another filly/mare over in Europe, and Rising Cross isn't just another filly in my opinion.

Film Maker is in a good spot here, but I don't see her winning. I am only on Rising Cross to win. No place or show wagers here.

You seriously think the best turf horse in America is gonna finish 5th in this rase???WOW

I sure do Kev. He won't be finishing very far off of them, and might get fifth by 1 1/2 lengths. But that is where I feel he will be.

You can get a share of all of my money if your boy wins, and I'll gladly put it in the tote for you to collect when he crosses the line.
