The quality in this race wont be much. Anybody who is halfway decent out there just ran in the Classic. This will most likely be more like an allowance race and Lava Man will be around 3/5 and very tough to beat. Its not like its the quality of the Cigar Mile or even the Clark.

Didn't really research the race too much because I commited to Doug as soon as he asked. Think we'll see another Hollywood Gold Cup winner in there. Mast Track. After that not sure

Tres Borrachos, Monzante, Neko Bay, maybe Riviera Cocktail, maybe Dakota Phone seem like they could end up in there.

No Dakota Phone. My jock rides him. Pointing for different spot. Tres Borrachos is entered in a turf allowance race.

I'll call the races at Hollywood Park as long as it exsists and as long as Mr. Wyatt and Mr. Liebau say I can.

Vic- You should come east and be the announcer at the NYRA tracks. No diss on Tom Durkin who I like very much, but hes probably going to retire soon and as it is now, calls on a limited schedule. You'd be great here.

I thought you said last year it was not a good idea for your health to do both and you were going to stick to being an agent?

Tres Borrachos should have enough time to recover and comeback in the Native Diver though.

I never said that. I fact if I was forced to choose between the two, thank god I'm not, I would never walk away from the announcers booth. It's my passion. It's what I do. It's who I am professionally.
