CASINO DRIVE: Jazil/Rags bro targets Belmont

[The Bid]

She has a half brother that can run a little bit in training with Guillot, sadly its talent will never be known either

yet another high profile syndicate that overpays for everything

Is that a syndicate, whatever it is they make some very strange moves.

I think the fact that they have Eric Guilliot as their private trainer speakes volumes about their success.

[The Bid]

Or lack of. I agree.

condidering that Southern Equine now owns the mare i doubt that the offspring will ever hit the sales. All future siblings to be raced by Southern Equine and trained by Eric Guillot.

and the Sarge as their Business Manager. And not the Cubs sarge either

I just read that this monster was going to use the Preakness as a prep for the Belmont? Must be nice to use the second TC race as a mere "prep" for the third.

I was truly amazed that Lemons Forever didn't win a handful of G1s. With her talent, and especially the expert handling of Dallas Stewart, the sky should have been the limit.

That horse, Overbid, is by Pulpit, so perhaps it will wake up on turf. Still, it won its debut nice enough on synthetic before getting dusted by El Gato Malo in an overambitious second start. Ran last week in a first condition, but could only split the field with a mild rally after a crawling, near :50 half mile fraction, the winner (another Pulpit, On The Virg) and runner-up running 1-2 throughout the race.

Not sure what the gripe is with Guillot. Seems to be doing alright with limited, race-ready stock. We'll see in the spring/summer when a bunch of these expensive yearling purchases from last year hit the track.
