I'm going to bet Prince Will I Am in the Jamaica. He may ultimately want more ground but he really ran a nice race in the N1X last time out and the pace in here looks like it'll be solid.

Lubash was a possibility for the Jamaica. Would have been fun to watch him here.

On a semi related note, I cannot wait for South Park next week!

An entire episode on NJ wops!

That was a very nice win by Uncle Mo, if this horse can learn to rate he might be the real deal.

OZONE PARK, N.Y. – The Breeders’ Cup is four weeks away, but when it comes to Boys At Tosconova, trainer Richard Dutrow Jr. wouldn’t mind if the $2 million Juvenile were run this weekend.

“He’s ready to run right now,” Dutrow said Friday morning after watching Boys At Tosconova work an effortless six furlongs in 1:13.18 over Aqueduct’s main track. “All we have to do is bide our time; it’s not like I have to get him ready to run. He’s ready to chew somebody out right now.”


Gee Rick, there was a little race called the Champagne today.

I hate to say this because (contrary to popular opinion) I don't like to bash racing in general but: When trainers do this sort of thing, I always hope that the horse fails miserably, or doesn't make it to the destination race. Leaving important races (and plenty of earnings oportunities) on the table while training a perfectly fit and ready horse for a race that is weeks away seems such a waste.
