Good point. You definitely have to ajust to the raceshape after reading the form. They could of taken a page out of that textbook ride Kent gave Diva Ash yesterday. Nice point also Rollo, they have big plans for this colt. I guess shortening up is not in those right now. Speaking of that NW1, wasnt this the spot McCleans Music was aiming for. I hope he is still around...

I thought the "Money" segment on the Versus coverage was fun.

Maria Menounos looks great, and even better after putting the face to the facts disclosed in the recent Howard Stern interview.

How about Rosario? I lost count of how many times Smiling Tiger checked in the stretch.

I'll have to watch the replay... I was fixated on Capt Candyman Can's four furlong middle move while four wide.

That race has really stuck it to me over the years, I should just have a Mint Julep when it comes around next year.

Only seen it one time, but was The 3 horse affecting his stretch run?

Im beyond livid, as I had the 3 on about 6 different p4 tickets, loaded for bear in the last two races too...im now only alice to one ticket....4,5,10,12,13 // 8

My whole body went numb when Aikenite got up... GL the rest of the way

Unfortunately I needed Doubles Partner or Prince Will to get up for the exacta, but you just can't let Get Stormy get away with those soft fractions..

Great ride by Ramon. Maybe some of those left coast haters will get a good look at how good he really is today.

More importantly, Alan nailed the scoop on the attendance figure before NBC did.

Not so much on NBC HD. The ambient noise was pretty bad so I couldn't hear a darn thing after they swung into the stretch. HD's normally a great way to go for sound, but it was actually too good. I don't need to hear all the 'wooo's on the track mid-race. I want to hear the race call. I'll have to take everybody's word on Larry. I'm sure he did a great job.
