My form just purchased online does show Developer with a drill over the strip - YESTERDAY! A 3 furlong bullet. Not sure what to make of that, but definitely interesting. I expected to see him in the early scratches, but he was not included.

Steve, what did Lopresti say about Gunforhome? Thought she was interesting at a bit of a price.

I am against Flower Mart personally, think with Leparoux up she will be taken back and left with too much to do against a pace that looks tepid to me.

He said she was a dog and was hurt late last year.. They are looking to get her in to run second in a overnight stake is Indiana so she has some black type when they off her in the Nov sale..lol

Actually that is only half true.. The good half is she is healthy the bad half is they dont think much of her(as a race horse) if they are pointing for cheap stake at Scioto Downs lol

He hadn't seen the field but was worried entering that the group would be too rich for her. She can contend with any progress but needs real improvement to win it appears. I think she's 5th best in the pecking order. First time through I liked North by Northlite but then had to acquiesce to Prissy, Cry War Eagle & Flower Mart...

Good race and fun sequence. Headed there shortly after a big show. BOL today!

Thanks, Steve! That will help my ticket. I think Prissy is the horse to beat there and I have North by Northlite as an A as well. May try to get through that with just the two of them. I like Arch of Titus in the last at a price as well, could go right down the road. I am not fully sold on the entry there at what will likely be an underlayed price.

We have been discussing how outrageous that ride on the 4 was in the last in the selections thread. Totally mind boggling, sure appeared that he misjudged the line. But that wasn't the only problem with that ride.

In the days when horses weren't babied as much it used to be quite common to blow one out the day before to get them on their toes. Shug doesn't often win with firsters(4%) according to Brisnet but this one may be ok. Key is to watch the board because rare for his firsters to take money.
