On the other hand, we haven't seen enough from the East Coast fillies to be sure they are better. However, it won't take much.

The problem with liking either Octave or Cotton Blossom going forward is that we have seen three races from them and they have already taken a step or two back. It's not like that barn is known for resuscitating horses. I think we've seen the best from those two, and it aint much, and at least the newer and fresher faces haven't exposed themselves. Perhaps they won't be much either, but I would rather take a shot with them than the exposed mediocrities.

I guess I can't argue there...This year's BC Juvy filly winner might be like an Action This Day was a few years back...it has that feel to it right now with just 8 weeks till the race....Baffert will probably be even money and a bad fave at that price....

Who are you looking at right now as far as 2yo colts that are quality and could go on in the BC Juvenile?...It is well documented who I have hung myself out on here.....
