East VS West The 06 Breeders Cup

[DiscreetCat=Monster]

Out of the eight races on the Breeders Cup Card how do you think the West will Fair considersing the powerhouse stables of Todd Pletcher and Sheik Mohammed are out of the East and who is the West best chance(s) ?

[SniperSB23]

Aragorn is the best shot and both the Juvy races are up for grabs so a Cali horse could win one or both of those.

I agree about the Juvy thing. You never can tell how who might come around between now and Nov 4th. Point Ashley and Horse Greeley might have a chance . . . Not saying they will beat Dreaming of Anna or Circular Quay (respectively), just saying they might have a chance.

Am I going out on a limb when i say that Pletcher wont win a race? Or at least, thats what the Boss tells me.

I hope alot of people not only think that way but bet that way also. It will give me a Nice Price on Scat Daddy.

I think there best chance is gonna be in the in the mile, but in both the grass races the euros hold some aces

I think the East takes the Classic,

Europe takes the Turf,

wherever we consider Biancone (midwest?) takes something with Gorella or does a hell of a job with her either way,

the west has a great shot in the Sprint with Siren, Bord, and Blingy,

the Mile goes to the West or the Euros or the Frenchman,

the juvy races can go either way

and the Distaff stays in the East...

Who knows though - still very early but wouldnt be surprised if the West won 3 or 4. Do they use western saddles out there?...

scat daddy huh? Well, indeed, i hope you bet that one with both fists. I havent found any of the juveys to be that impressive yet. That Mandella horse i fancied a little bit though. I will be waiting for Oak tree and some of the belmont races before i go overboard on a juvey. Definitely not sold on scat daddy.

uh,
just the BCJF with Point Ashley.

Aragorn is an excellent miler, but he is going to need a virtual "no show" from Europe to win that race.

Too Much Bling is a really nice 3YO sprinter and you can claim him as a west coast horse if you want(its been a while since he ran there from what I can remember),
but hes not going to win the BC Sprint.

Im extremely east coast biased, but I dont think the CHRB itself would think that the west coast has any chance.

good luck to Papi Chullo or whatever the hell they are going to send to the BCC.
when the 103rd best east coast handicap horse can go west and take 2nd in the Pac Classic, then you know the west coast dirt suck.

And when the East Coast horses don't go pick up all that supposedly easy California purse money, you have to wonder why. Are all the East Coast trainers so stupid that they don't see how much better their horses are than the California runners?
