Affirmed staring Cause to Believe and..

[Scav]

AP Warrior is supposedly a new horse, with a new jock....not sure what to think about that though....This is the type of race he wins impressively, only to throw a clunker in the next one

A.P. Warrior is my pick in here - love this horse and I think he gets it done by about 2 here. Your Tent or Mine will be tough if Drysdale has him fully cranked (and he should given the amount of time his horses are given off - he's used to it by now) with Point Determined grabbing 3rd. Cause to Believe played a big fish in a small pond at Northern Californa. His race against Sinister Minister was "nice" but lets remember Sinister Minister almost put himself over the rail bouncing off it twice.

From NTRA-
INGLEWOOD, Calif. - Your Tent or Mine, a top 2-year-old at the 2005 Hollywood Park fall meeting, will not start in Saturday's $100,000 Affirmed Handicap because of an injury that had ended any hope of a 3-year-old campaign, trainer Neil Drysdale said.

Drysdale did not elaborate on the nature of the injury but said that Your Tent or Mine would need surgery.

"It's knocked him out for the rest of the year," Drysdale said. "But he'll be fine."

Drysdales 3yr olds turned out to be nothing. Waste of time giving that guy a horse until they are 4.

Point Determined here...Even when AP Warrior beat him, PD looked like there was more horse that day than he gave. He almost ran over APW at the top of the stretch and had to be steadied. APW did pull back ahead when almost on even terms, but that was the best he has ever run.

i am real confused here with APW and PD, PD with gomez up, the old gomez before dubai, was a winner. when gomez rode APW in the hollywood futurity after Stevieinjuredhorse, became just that, he ran a 4th, Gomez's worst performance on the crop of three year olds. who is riding what horse here, i think it makes a difference.

A.P. Warrior wins this, IMO.
