Battle of Hastings I guess. Just horrible. God awful.

I think this Giants Causeway claimer has a legit shot. Check out the likely pace sceniro.

I would if he was trained by a juicer. Cecil is just horrible. Either he's as honest as they come or retarded.

Isn't Temple City going to hamper his chances a bit? As much as I'd like to see a horse win the Pacific Classic 3 races after winning a 25k claimer, he seems outmatched in there.

I want no part of The Usual QT or Awesome Gem. Hold Me Back is interesting and I think he's going to hit the board. I'm between Hold Me Back, Battle of Hastings and I think Crowded House is interesting at a price.

Hold Me Back and Richard's Kid are the only two horses that don't have major flaws in my opinion. From memory because I haven't looked at PP's

1) I think I heard Mullins was O-fer the meet today, all eyes must be on him, No
2) Didn't quit last time but no thank you
3) No
4) Need 7 turns
5) No
6) Win over surface and distance
7) Same as 6 although not the specific Del Mar surface
8) No idea who he even is
9) Trip of a lifetime last time
10) Drugs already talked about him 0-fer

Richards Kid is clearly trained by the GOAT 1.....
He can win, but something IMO is not right with him. Maybe the Dubai trip?

I don't think it was the trip. He just stinks.

Even though 3 back Temple City went very fast early, look at his last 2 races. He is out there crawling. Plus look at the jock, then think about the Rail Trip debacle. I think Isle of Giants has to clear early from the inside with P Val... Maybe he runs away from them, kinda like Mast Track.

I hear you. I don't think Temple of City is going to be dueling with Isle of Giants, because of who is riding him as you said. But he'll be close enough. I just don't know if I want a front runner going 10 furlongs on that track. He should be a price at least.

If that joke of a track is playing like it did today, Isle of Giants has a good shot tomorrow.

I think Giant's Causeway himself would have a legit shot in this race. Even at 13 and off a 10-year layoff. He'd have to be at least second choice. He's won as many times on the synthetic as the favorite right?
