i worry about Cribnote breaking down. He has that left front and he tries hard every time.

His left front swings out wide like a tendon or something.

he's in my watch list as "big maiden win, bad left-front"

then I noticed he has ran back since and he blew the turn in that race, and still had the same action.

It is easy to see in the head on replays.

Sky Diva Wins the Friztte easily!!

Very happy to see another graded SW for Sky Mesa who has really turned things around.

I was also very pleased by War Echo's effort. This half to Pyro chased sizzling fractions and hung tough until the late stages.

Persistently, as I thought, appears to be a filly who will always find one or two better than her

Persistently is just too slow early for these one-turn races. She's got quite the nice turn of foot though.

A lot of people apparently didn't believe their own eyes when Vineyard Haven ran so well to win at Saratoga. So they bet down horses he beat, and then he runs away from them again. Because they don't like his name? Or his connections? Or his looks? What?

She does have a good turn of foot, but I don't know that she can sustain it. She's not truly explosive like Stardom Bound (who I pray can transfer her form to the dirt - I suspect she can, but you never know). I don't know - she's a very nice filly, but I kind of have my doubts

What did you think of War Echo? I thought she ran great, chasing fast fractions and not giving in. I know Gemswick still beat her for third, but isn't it considered harder to chase fast fractions than to set them while loose on the lead? I give Gemswick a lot of credit for holding her own, but I admit my eyes were on War Echo.

VH ran great, but it's too bad none of the other horses did any running......

What are you talking about? He was the second choice.

Besides, in the Hopeful, he almost got run down by a horse that took a right turn at the top of the stretch and a speed horse that had a miserable break, and his time wasn't fast.. You really can't see why some people would be turned off?

He ran very well today.
