It wasn't "special" because of who he beat, but he ran a huge race that day. You're missing my point though. The horse has made one not bad at all start and now he's in for 35 in a grass sprint.

I view that as a negative. He can still win, but I never like seeing that move and was interested in knowing how Bogey and other handicappers look at this.

Roussell likes to scratch alot and he also likes to win, I agree about seeing it as a negative, but as you can see, the race isn't much. Plus, there isn't many 35k claims at Arlington, pretty rare.

I agree Hoss. I thought he wan well first out in a race where the place horse won his next out (at the same level). Then the horse disappears of the grid for over two months and now shows four spaced out works for his second start on the drop. For me there are some definite red flags.

Last 2 races look inviting.

10 DD 2/26
5 DD 26/26

20 WP on the 2 in both races.

With the big scratch of my BEST BET #2 in Race 8 I'm now leaning on #7 Kuhlu in Race 9 as my singleton.

Kuhlu is the 7. You put the 4 as you're single

Thanks, Viscount - I corrected it.
