7/23 (SAR): Schuylerville (Gr. III); High Rock (L)

I dont have th PPs yet, but going off memory, cant Posted be tough here on the front end? Last race was excellent nearly resulting in a win. Worth inclusion on pick tickets and maybe a win bet at what should be 6/1 to 8/1 range.

I agree about Mohegan Sky not being worth the short price albeit she likes it here. And also about Metro Meteor being over the top. Wont be using either one of these two.

Silver Timber is probably going to be heard from but thinking the price wont be as good as it should be with Kent up.

A horse I can see getting up at a big number is All About Mack. May look hopeless on paper but if the pace falls apart, he should be flying and this isnt a stellar group of horses.

Posted has been horrible his last several, I'd be surprised if he even makes it 3 furlongs on the lead. He's obviously a fragile one, which is probably why they're running on the grass, because clearly he is better on dirt.


I hate turf sprints.

Maybe I am thinking of the wrong horse Didnt Posted very recently lose a race by a nose and run 2nd? It was a sprint race on the turf. I thought it was his last race but I may be wrong.

It's irrelevant now since they're off the turf, but yes he did- but that was a pretty weak group. The winner isn't much and Posted got an ideal trip and still couldn't beat him. I was referring to the previous 5 races where he got smoked by better competition...

I dont mind 2-3 a week. I just think NYRA has taken it to extremes with 2-3 a day.

I don't understand how people can complain about this race in particular. It's a very good field. When they get to running three or four statebred races a day in grass sprints, it gets tiresome, but if the quality is good, I love turf sprints.

This race is fine, an excellent betting race, I agree- it's the 3-4 a day that gets to me.
