Are there multi-race wagers tomorrow?

Hes Had Enough is 6-1 in the US but 60-1 over here, rarely have I seen as big a price differential!!

I've had some good luck in this race in the past. I was very impressed with the filly Shuruq's big win in her prep for this.

Selections:
1st: Shuruq
2nd: Secret Number
3rd: Elleval (love his chance to get on the bottom of the ticket at big price)

Thank you, Doug and Pat! Put them together for a nice exacta. Thought Elleval was going to put it away but flattened late.

I can see Black Caviars connections slightly concerned if she and Shea Shea turn up at Royal Ascot in June!!

Beautiful run by Animal Kingdom.

Congrats to connections, to Joel and to anyone who had that (I sure didn't).

Very nice.

videogirl10 · #35 03-30-2013, 01:27 PM

Yes beautiful run. Looked like he went real easy. Are they still planning on retiring him after this?

Calzone Lord · #36 03-30-2013, 02:37 PM

I had a very good three race sequence and was able to make a modest winner for Dubai...but nothing too special because I didn't use Pat's horse with the 47/1 shot who ran 2nd in the 4th that I keyed underneath.

Shea Shea 1st won the prep for this by a clear margin in tremendously fast time. I don't see any way around him. He should win. Eagle Regiment 3rd for 2nd.

Race #6: Dubai Golden Shaheen (Par final time: 1:11.26)

If this race was on dirt ... Triniberg would almost certainly win and Private Zone would almost certainly finish 2nd. A complete no-brainer exacta.

It's not on dirt, though.

Selections:

1st: Mental
2nd: Trinniberg
3rd: Reynaldo The Wizard 1st

Race #7: Dubai Duty Free (Par final time: 1:50.10)

Little Mike has a puncher's chance if he gets a loose early lead, but you have to play against him in the US pools for sure.

Selections:

1st: The Apache 2nd
2nd: Sajjhaa 1st
3rd: Giofra 3rd
4th: Ocean Park

$2 trifecta paid $1,114.80

$1 pick 3 paid $179.70

And glory for America at long last, with Animal Kingdom winning the big one.

AK did that in a breeze! That was impressive. Joel didn't even hit him in the stretch.

He saved the day for the Americans.

Here are how the Americans performed:

Race 2: Alpha (5th at 13/1 odds)

Race 4: Dice Flavor (8th at 9/1) He's Had Enough (11th at 11/1 odds)

Race 5: Varsity (6th at 6/1 ) and Great Attack (11th at 9/1 odds)

Race 6: Trinniberg (11th at 3/1) and Private Zone (9th at 5/1)

Race 7: Little Mike (11th at 2/1 odds)

Race 8: Animal Kingdom (1st at 5/2) Royal Delta (10th at 3/1) and Dullahan (11th at 5/1 odds)

Americans on the day: 11 starts, 1 win, 0 seconds, 0 thirds, 0 fourths

Even though we always totally dominated this card when it was on dirt, I have to think today is one of the greatest days in American racing history simply because we won a 10f International Grade 1 race on synthetic.

Animal Kingdom is a unique kind of horse, he's the only horse to ever win the Kentucky Derby without ever having started on dirt before it. And now he's won a major International Group 1 on a surface Americans are a total joke on.

LOL.

Where the hell did they come up with Animal Kingdom representing Australia?

Just because he's planning on going there later on doesn't mean a thing. He represents America about as much as I do Erie.
