You can probably handicap for the Thunder Road to come off the turf

Haven't been gambling much lately, but I am going to place one bet tomorrow. I have a feeling that Bittel Road is going to run a huge race in the Robert B. Lewis and will be placing a nice win bet on him. Any other opinions on this race?

Blue Exit ran great, you just got a unlucky trip. Nice stab.

Thanks. Cant complain on the trip. Even without the bump, Cowboy Cal still wins it in the photo. At least I made a little money.

Note that Bittel Road tends to run much closer to the pace when Johnny V is up. He could sit the perfect trip just off the pace tomorrow.

I really think the Cash Call Mile was a very Weak Race (only time will Tell)
But Bittel Road Lost Ground when the running Started. and Mark S the Cooler a Maiden at the time of the Cash Call is only beaten 5 lengths. WHy O'neill is trying to turn this one into a Main track specialist is very Surprising. And Pioneer of the Nile I am not sure he is as Good as everyone thinks he might be.

So I quess if I were Playing I would have to look at someone that did not run in the Cash Call. MAybe Papa Clem or Shafted.

Matto Mando just sh it all over Stardom Bound, almost 2 seconds faster.....granted it was a freak performance but man Stardom Bound was really average today and MM was freakish.

Only saw it once but it looked like a dream trip for Matto Mondo. Have yet to see Stardom Bound's race. 2 full seconds is a good bit though.

For all the knocking on the 3-year-olds of last year (myself included), Cowboy Cal continues to just run hard and win. Regardless of how fast, he's a cool horse and is fun to watch.

I'd like to know what race you were watching??? If you are referring to POTN, I think you are way off. He finished very impressively.
