Since the Haskell is the 12th, does anybody know if the Pick 5 will start in the 8th instead of the 6th?

I think it stays as the 6th- at least it did the last few years (when it started in the 5th.)

That's a terrible decision then. Imagine if the Travers wasn't part of a guaranteed Pick 4 or Pick 6.

The P5 starts with the 6th. The late P4 starts with the 11th.

I figured the Sunday card would be loaded. Their lineup on Saturday is dreadful.

I know that Trappe Shot is the "now horse" but...

does it bother anyone that he has not yet run 9 furlongs this late into his 3-yr old campaign?

He does have a nice race over the Monmouth oval, but he'll need to deal with that outside post.

All in all, I guess he'll be the fav in a very interesting Haskell....

Uptowncharlybrown has been scratched because of a fever. (per his facebook page)

It would be very shocking to me if he was the favorite.

Granted, Super Saver and LAL do not have the fan base of Mine That Bird perhaps. But they are still Triple Crown champions and people that don't look at the PPs will choose them immediately.

ateamstupid · #15 08-01-2010, 05:16 PM

LAL opens at 3/5, the Derby winner 12-1.

When you pp you need to start looking at class and the NOW horse rarely (more like never) beats the dominate class and FASTER horse.
