Return of the champ! Great card overall.

Rollers back on a week rest in the Shakertown?? Really?

He's a mighty NY bred.

It's hard to imagine a race with less pace than the Jenny Wiley.

True... I think Kiss with a twist will be out front and Forever together will be stalking her closely.
That being said, its a crapshoot what the jocks will do after they get told by every trainer to go because there is no speed.

Now if only logic worked in this process, you'd have it nailed. I am only laughing at the number of times I've capped a race and had some of the same conclusions and the whole race blows up in my face. I'll be fun to watch.

Nice to see a Gr.2 race come up like a Gr.1 in the Jenny Wiley. Visit has been a dissapointment since a promising debut in NA, I think she will offer abit of value today. Looking for a better race from her 1st time out east.

I like the card, too. Looking forward to being there Saturday.

Did a double-take on Rollers myself. Has Tagg turned horses around this quick in the past?

Like My Pal Charlie turning back to 7 furlongs. I think he is a big threat in this one.
