Cocoa Beach might have her hands full. She is the class, but some of these compare well to her.

I have been chasing Modern Look, I am off her now, I hope she does not pop Thursday.

She's just up when Delaware's dark or for spot rides. She rode a couple on opening day and was hanging around on Thursday as well.

15-1 on Teamgeist in the DeLaRose? Has anyone actually seen her?

3rd in a G1 (vs the boys carrying 127 lbs) and she was the favorite
2nd twice in a G1, by a head and a neck
2 G2 wins
3 G3 wins

5 out of 6 at 1 mile on the grass (only loss was her 3rd place finish vs boys)
11/11 in the money on grass

getting in 9-16 lbs lighter than she is used too...

I'm sure she won't be 15-1, but i like where i am starting from...

Guadalcanal ran in the 1961 Belmont Stakes....what's the rule concerning naming horses, the same name that has already been used, especially those that had success and a place in history.

He ran in last year's Belmont too, as a maiden.

Well Miss Match didn't exactly wow anyone yesterday, but that may not be a good indication of things.

She handled Miss Match, at what wouldn't seem like her game, while giving her 14 lbs...I am expecting this one to be a little better than that one.
