Agreed.

Interested to see how Sidney's Candy runs in the Forego. He's seemed up until this point to be a horse that's good at a lot of things but not great at anything.

Woodward-
Filled with horses who are picking up weight, quite a bit in some cases, except HDG...

I like HDG and Mambo Meister exacta box...

Forego-
Exacta box Jackson Bend, Sidney's Candy, Aikenite...

Personal Ensign-
Appears to me they are all going to be breathing fore about 9f mark, so I go with the horse who at least has won going this far,(I know, different surface) Pachattack...

Convocation! Im all in on this one. Nice allowance win last time, and thinks today is the day he will finally take that next step as a legit graded stakes horse. Time to cash in on that Jerkens longshot in a big race at Saratoga!

Huge race by Jackson Bend. Excellent job by Nick Zito with this one. Tough meet, but a Grade 1 should help.

Big fan of Jacks or Better Farms, they continue to breed very good horses with very average mares/sires.

They also know how to enjoy themselves at the track. Fun group, nice to see the "little guys" doing well.

Nice run from Havre de Grace but I want Flat Out going forward...

Ambitious spotting paid-off... but now what do you do? Don't you sorta have to keep going and head to the BC Classic?
