A lot of folks thought there'd be pace a couple weeks ago. I hope the pace conjecture actually comes to fruition this time.

Looking at her competition, besides Shared Account, there isn't much in the race to take money, but I think Desert Sage is VERY good. She's this year's Aruna.

The Schaefer isn't such a bad little race, is it? As always, nice card on Preakness today. Unfortunately, I presume it will be the usual Preakness day chalkfest.

Seriously? Have you taken a close look at who she has beaten?

I think she's going to burn a LOT of money in subsequent starts. I understand given the overall quality of Saturday's race she may get a piece, and she was able to overcome dynamics last time, but she beat absolutely nothing. I understand how the pace affected the race but I still side with the poor field quality to judge her.

If you look at the race which will require a horse with a good late pace fig, DS towers over the field by 15 points. Coming off 2 wins is a good sign, not a bad sign. The money burner will be the fave. Sometimes people can't see beyond their finger tips.

Yeah, what do I know. I sure haven't picked any winners lately.

I like Dialed In to beat Midnight Interlude.

Why do you like to fight with people. "People" is not singular, it's plural. Fight with someone your own size.

Oh please. You have now taken two BS shots as me recently. Don't play the victim with me.

Sorry, make that three.

You are pathetic to think you are that important to me. Grow up for god sake.

Disclaimer is "Latley". Quit loving yourself.

Performing isn't terrible even though she's not overly classy - she won by 4 1/2 next out and then won one of the races on the big carryover day. . . but I agree - Desert Sage hasn't beaten much. I have a hard time tying her to the fields she ran against, though, because she beat them so easily and while coming home extremely quickly with less-than-advantageous set-ups. I refuse to swallow 4-5 on the very overrated Shared Account--even though she still towers over these on paper--and think there's enough of a chance that Desert Sage is as good as she looked to me visually to key her hard against the chalk. I guess I still have to use Shared Account, though. These races kind of suck compared to Churchill's Derby Day card. . .

I charted the last 4 Preakness day cards and they were very chalky to the point of being almost unplayable. A few bombs hit last year but it was truly the exception... The Blackeyse Susan / Preakness double has paid well though.
