Some pretty good "value" horses I believe in the Fourstar.
I have always liked "Red Giant" and although he hasn't raced in 10 months, his works indicate that he is "ready". His last wins were with Velazquez in the irons as well. If I had $ to bet  ,I would be playing the following:1-4/1-4-9/2-6-8-9 in a trifecta. Hope it does'nt come in because I will be sick

Indian Blessing is really good. Does anyone think that with the way she's relaxing now and finishing that she could be a factor in a race like the Gazelle or the Beldame, being one-turn races?

This just in! Seriously, trying those longer, one-turn races makes sense with the way she's running now.

KG, she has won 7 of 9 starts with 2 seconds, and in both of those losses it was a pole back to third.
Yeah, I think she'd be a factor.

Indian Blessing is better than ever now. remember back earlier in the year how she was so headstrong and refused to rate? to me she still looks to have distance limitations, but at one turn up to 8 or 8.5 I think she's still in her wheelhouse.
