Your BC Bomb

George Washington. He is 20-1ML but probably 12-1 at post. Bernardini will probably beat him, but I will take my chance at a price.

SATULAGI, currently 50/1 with several firms over here for the BCJF.

She has repeatedly shaped as if better than able to show, looking as if stamina is her strength. She pretty much proved as much when fourth in the Fillies' Mile at Ascot last time, where she shaped as if further still will suit.
She is really likeable, always tries hard and is by Officer out of a Danzig Connection mare. She may well not be good enough, but I expect her to run with great credit.

For major bombs, I've taken Premium Tap at 50-1 and Super Frolic at 80-1.

Super Frolic finished within 2.75 lengths of St. Liam last year after "stumbling badly" at the start. His last 3 races this year have been decent, though the last one (Goodwood) was the least impressive. He doesn't have much chance to win the Classic, but he's got better than a 1/81 chance, IMO.

He's also nominated to the Mile, but with 26K in lifetime earnings on grass, and his last turf race a 15-length loss in August of '04, I don't think there's much chance they are really going to run him in the Mile.

in the sprint, siren lure and too much bling are both live at a decent price....
siren lure, a former claimer and turf sprinter will get some of my $$.

I don't think George Washington qualifies as a bomb. If so, I'll take Lava Man as my bomb.

Last I checked 20-1 ML is a bomb. He might even go off longer than that.

Lava Man is likely the second choice.

Where are you getting 20-1? I haven't seen George Washington any higher than 12-1 anywhere.

slotdirt · #8 10-27-2006, 03:53 PM

George Washington is as low as 7.5-1 on some sites, as a matter of fact.

Agree completely.

Super Frolics trainer has said that they have cleared up a problem he's had since his last race and expect him to improve. They didn't say what the problem was. Just a FYI.

I think Super Frolic's biggest problem is that he just isn't very fast.
