I was suprised too. I had 3,7,9 in the pick 4 and expected the 3 to go near or on the lead with the 7 coming from behind. But it was totally reversed, with Talamo going to the front. Obviously you would think that Frankel told him to go there. She ran well on the lead a couple a times overseas, that being said I was still cursing when I saw her go to the front.

That's what I thought, Frankel must have gave some prerace instructions. Anyway Unionize for Talamo in the 8th to salvage a less than fruitful day at Hollywood. G'luck!

LOL I can still laugh about it, one of those days. I guess Summer Bird's connections are sleeping easier now that they are going with a more exp rider for the Belmont.

Smokin Joe Talamo, just what is he smoking today? That's 2 pretty amateurish rides in a row and not much of a better one on Egypt a race earlier...It just dawned on me I have bet 3 horses and he has been on all 3!
