I'm still surprised that Smart Strike horses continue to go off at pretty fat odds in turf races. I like them. lots.

Came Home has been off to a terrible start so far. Its funny, someone who's eye I respect for horses said she liked them the best as yearlings, but the one's I saw werent anything special. A few seems to be coming on a little late in the year though. He has a filly named Desert Sunrise that should be a runner but she just cant put it together at all. Her dam has thrown class to everything else.

Yeah... its amazing. Belong to Me, More Than Ready, and Forest Wildcat are the three you'll see go off at ridiculous odds. More Than Ready is as solid as they come on the turf.

Another one that I am always all over, especially under 8.5 miles

Holy Bull horses often take to the turf.
