It's been that kind of holiday weekend. I mentioned #1 Louve Royal has 10 straight ITM finishes and I just use her for 1st and 2nd.

Congrats to Passport (By Pulpit) and the Clairborne connections (Frank Brothers) for his victory in the Cradle Stakes going 1 1/16 at River Downs. Also, Izzie's Halo (By Halo's Image) ran a nice race for Amoss and both appear headed in the right direction.

10 MTP and Baffert's filly Point Ashley is currently at 7-5 and Jump On In is 2-1. Somebody must know something.

I just played a little extra on Jump On In. I'll take my chances with this impressive filly. For those of you that like to play late money, this is a perfect example. Jump On In looks great on the track.

Congrats to the Baffert Posse because Point Ashley was superb. She's definitely the leading contender for the Breeders' Cup filly race. That was very impressive.

Also, I almost forgot to sends some congrats towards Victor Espinoza with his 7 wins on the Del Mar Card. Red hot is an understatement.

Hoss, LOL. I know exactly what you mean. I don't understand why so-called horse racing fans always want to bash a top performance.

Bogey, I have never figured that one out either, and it makes no sense to me.
The even crazier thing is that about 30 seconds after the race is over they will start saying that he or she will lose the next one!!!! Then they keep saying it until the horse eventually loses, like they all do. Its about the most pointless thing that I can think of to say.

Oracle, They figure that eventually the horse will lose. Hell, Secretriat lost. I guess it's just the world we live in today. They really don't appreciate the sport IMO.

For example, Watchmaker (who's a buffoon) always stated that LITF didn't deserve all the praise. The horse travelled from coast to coast and beat everyone he faced. 2005 sprint champion. Go Figure.
