I guess 6 scratches in the race changes things. Don't know much about the other two horses in here, but I wonder if it will play out like a match race between A Little Warm and Miner's Reserve.

3 min to post... I am waiting another 2 minutes if the 1 is above even money, I am tossing $100 to win on him.

Stupid horse had to stay at 6-5... Not even that I like him, as much as I was not sold on A Little Warm.

Got a pick for the Arabians in the 10th?

Tentatively, does this race tend to make A Little Warm a contender for the Travers (Haskell/Jim Dandy first, of course) or does it merely write off Miner's Reserve as an elite 3yo?

I need to really learn this game then, I saw 2 horses plodding home who wanted no part of really going long, the 1 had really no excuse at all.

Honestly, this is a given.

So if you were Nick, would you be disappointed? It looks like he set fast fractions and had every right to get tired. He may not want to run long as he appears to be something of a speed demon. I haven't seen the race, just read the recap in the Form.

I'm going to go on a limb here as well and state that I don't want either of these plugs back in a major race, on a NON SPEED FAVORING SURFACE, either.
