Do owners not realize they are paying a nice purse for the race?
Has Ricky Tick turned into a racehorse? I took him off my stable list when he was a slob but he has had to turn it around to be in a race like this. He is a 3/4 brother to our horse, Prospect Knight, who is running at Philly on Saturday in a maiden claimer 40k, with a FIFTY ONE THOUSAND DOLLAR pot!!

Nope, he hasn't turned into one yet. Connections were way unrealistic after he broke his maiden at FG when they didn't sell him for reportedly high 6 figures, and continue to run in bad spots, he is probably a high level claimer.

He didnt beat anyone beside Coyote Legend, ok maybe not a claimer but only reason he is even in the race is cause he won the Prelude

Ya thats where I thought Golden Moka was going to but stakes guy in LA Downs mentioned Golden Moka and since First Dude and Exhi are going to PA Derby I am guessing he is going down there.

The 2 races are exactly the same other than the PA Derby has FD,Exhi,that IEAH superstar,and maybe Afleet Again-LA Derby has Ricky Tick and Apart. Where would u wanna run?

Its possible they changed, it is all up to Rene Douglas, he manages the whole thing.

Kudos to Rene for keeping Anthony Stephen aboard, word is that every jock reached out to Rene asking for the mount and he let Stephen keep the mount.

They went to the Super Derby it looks like, he was not entered today. That sucks because I was suppose to go with them to Philly, and our horse got in that day.

Cant really blame them. It is alot easier race then the PA Derby. I thought it was gonna be First Dude to Super Derby but Romans likes him up there and Golden Moka to PA

Good move for the connections tho and should be a easy Fave with a jock that knows him

But did you watch the race?

I thought Apart's performance in the Prelude was nothing short of spectacular, considering the trip. I'll have to check the sheets, but his number should have been huge. An up and comer for the Blame connections.

And for what its worth, Parx could have had the same 7 horse field they have for $500k than $1 million.

PA Derby...

Exhi
Severe Weather
Afleet Again
A Little Warm
Morning Line
First Dude
Friend or Foe

That's it - no Trickmeister. The overnight is out.

It looks like a good spot for Severe Weather.

Gotta love IEAH lol
Since they got him and all they have done with him is duck 1 big race(Travers) after saying he will wire the field and run FD into the ground. Then after 10 mins after winning a joke of a race,they announce he is going to the PA Derby. Well maybe there is a nice 4 horse allowance race he can run and win instead

Not to bad of a race tho. Odds should be nice

That might be the worst race ever for $51K. Prospect Knight has a very good chance in there- other than the Margolis there isn't much.

I know. The only reason he ran in that race here at Arlington was because we wanted to put the 25k starter condition in our pocket at Philly. The plan with him was to go to Philly from the start because he should be a dirt horse. I'll be betting him at what should be between 10-20/1
