I'm willing to take my medicine on Bushfire. Thought she was another KEE fraud but her last 2 races were good. SO i was wrong on her. Cost me the Pick 4. Although I got scratched out of 2 horses in that race.

Rand,

Cost me the pick 4 as well.. Made it clear and every where else that Hello Liberty was my banker there.. All over Cacique, Songster and Jazzy, but left Bushfire off the ticket. Would have been room had I known MiracMiss was going to go screwy... Brutal...

As to best ride.. Considering that the only time most of these guys ever ride 1.5m on thwe main is in the BEL Stakes, and that 'Nando is 18, I think it's hard to put anyone's ride above his Saturday. It was an absolute blueprint for winning a Belmont with an off-the-pace type...

Spent time at Kieran's barn afterwards Sat. evening, and the little character was quite full of himself. Those that want to make him their favorite horse will have one that's going to be around a while too...

I was very surprised to see Bushfire hang on in that race. I had both in the Pick 4, so I was slighty disappointed that hello liberty didn't get by. --I was more disappointed at the start of the race when TWO of my selections scratched! I though for sure that was a sign that my ticket was going down!
