Has Linda Rice been on ATR...?

Not a nice person? Hey if Frankel can sound sociable when he comes on ATR then anyone can.

I'm not sure if there is a stat for turf sprint sire leaders, but it would seem to me that City Zip's hit at a healthy %. There's one entered in the 3rd at GP today.

Turnback angle appears to be alive and well. Lake also brought back horse pretty quickly (13 days and 3rd race in a month). Horse did have his only win in Turf sprint also. Stalk and close angle is pretty solid here.

doctor decter is at Gulfstream today in the 5th.
I don't think he has run a race that would win this race today, but the one at Belmont wasn't bad where they came hom in 12. At least he is 15-1 probably waste some bucks including him

Don't know, anyone know? I'm sure when the Spa rolls around, it would be a good question to ask her why she wins all those turf sprints.
