Default DT Contest - Week 8

Sorry I'm posting this so late this week, not a lot of quality Derby Trail races.

There are lots of good races next week, we’ll probably do the Fountain of Youth, Hutcheson Stakes, Robert B. Lewis Stakes and maybe also the John Battaglia Memorial. All of these races are Saturday, March 3rd. If you want to limit it to three races, let me hear your feedback – we are starting to get into the fun part of the year!


GULFSTREAM: Hallandale Beach Stakes
Race # 7 Distance: 1 1/16th Mile (Turf)
NOTE: We do have AE’s listed, if you pick one as your top choice, make sure you have an alt. (or two)

Soldier's Dancer........I guess.
I probably have one of the biggest disparities between dirt-capping ability and turf-capping ability in history. I don't think I have picked a turf winner in..................hell I don't even remember when the last one was.

I was going to say use as many as possible, but I like this idea.

This could very well be a very 'Smart' Tri of Pleasant Strike, Sedgefield & Twilight Meteor...

My play; Pleasant Strike
