I have said for weeks only 2 horses can win the Haskell. Lucky or Trappe Shot. I agree with Joseph about the odds, I can see him being as low as 5-2 and as high as 9-2. Super Saver and Ice Box IMO are hopeless in this spot.

you're not at all concerned with lucky having had an illness? i thought they said it would be close getting him here. at the price he'd be at, i fail to see a reason to choose him here.

how will this race unfold? pacesetters? will there be enough speed for the closers, ice box and afleet again? doesn't seem this will fit the bill for the two of them.

what to think of uptown, who fares well vs trappe shot in the mornings from what i've heard on the radio?

I think the crop is ripe for a newcomer... everyone who ran in the first part of the year who is still around is not anything particularly special...

i think so too. this crop seems pretty....bland. no standout, opportunity for a payoff by beating a favorite.

$17.20 on the exacta was a GIANT OVERLAY....It would have been value at $10.
