You know, Cowgirl, you'll probably end up being the deep closer of the field!

Double for Super Thursday and triple for DWC Day?

I'm not worried about you. I want to say you'll pull a Zenyatta but so this doesn't turn into a problem let's just say you'll pull a Deep Impact!

Soumillon has had some awesome rides at the Carnival, but that was a tragedy on Mahbooba. They backed it down incredibly slow and she was going to have to be a beast to run into that dawdle. Any decent American jocks with an ability to read the form and have sense of timing on non-grass surfaces could, IMO, do really well if they went over.

Scores after Day 8

Pat Cummings storms into the lead - he's been on fire lately and deserves his number 1 spot.. Again, if anyone has any queries, let me know

Not sure your reasoning for liking Monterosso that much, but I do too. As for Air of Grace in the second...not so much.

Good luck though!

Oh I have a few reasons for liking him... I mean did you see who the favorite is? Okaaaay. CV won't win again, best horse in the field (Mr. Brock) won't win... I don't need to explain my other reasons publically as they're silly but I do think he's good off the layoff and Barzalona seals the deal for me. I like Interaction too. Simon aside there's not much in that field.

Air of Grace... oh believe me I know that's a huge longshot but that's my strategy... to play one here cause of this...

There's not a real standout in that field. I know this one doesn't look that great but that was a tough, tough field last time... this one could conceivably win here so yeah... worth blowing a safer bet in one race and this is it. If it were about points for a win no way but hey... imagine the payouts here. Worth a shot!

Good luck to you and to everyone.

Come home safe, kids.

I agree there isn't much in the race - even worse, there isn't much pace, aside from the rail horse. That being said, I think Barzalona's hot hand and ability to read the form will keep in the garden seat and pounce. The form from the UK is beyond solid, especially the win over Arctic Cosmos. If he is 6-1, I'm juiced.
