Anyone have any 2YOs they like?

There is a horse running tomorrow at Churchill that I think is as good as any 3 year old I've seen this year. His name is Kajiwara. I don't think he will even be the favorite tomorrow. He will probably be the second choice. He shouldn't have any excuses. He should be able to win this race with no problem if he is as good as I think he is.

We'll see just how good the horse is when he's not allowed to set tepid fractions while clear on the front end. He ain't gonna come close to the lead tomorrow with Ninewayhit in the race. Safe Trip probably gets the trip in there, and we know he can sit just off it. I'll bet that Kajiwara goes favored and for me would be a play against at low odds.

Thanks for the heads up Rupert. I probably won't bet him but I am anxious to watch him.

He is m/l 5/2 favorite. Who do you think will be favored over him?

He's actually the 3rd choice in the consensus even though he is 5-2 on the morning-line. I think that Safe Trip will go off as the favorite.

I had literally been waiting for Kajiwara to run for a year. He was in my top 2-3 favorite horses at the OBS March Sale last year. I obviously wasn't the only one that liked him. He sold for $400,000.

When he was finally making his debut, he was only showing like 2 works. They must have just given him the race that day. He ran lousy but he came back and won easy the next time.

I agree with JerseyJ that Kajiwara will probably come from off the pace tomorrow but I don't think that will be a problem. I don't think he needs the lead to win.

Ynot Tony is one of the biggest 2 yr olds I've ever seen . By Andromedas's Hero.

Nice efforts by Kajiwara and the winner.

Yes, he ran huge but not quite huge enough. Safe Trip ran incredible. They ended up running 1:08 4/5 and the track wasn't even that fast there today. They blew away the rest of the field.

I don't know, I thought that the Assmussen kind of sucked up there into a second kind of because someone had to run 2nd. I think the 8 is a better horse.

They fought it out all the way down the stretch and Kajiwara couldn't get by him. I think they both ran huge. Safe Trip obviously ran the better race today. If Safe Trip wasn't in there, Kajiwara wins by 5 lengths. I thought they both ran great. I definitely underestimated Safe Trip.
