Default SA (Sun): Mile; Title; Secret

$250,000 Oak Tree Breeders' Cup Mile (gr. IIT, Race 6, 3 p.m.), 3 & Up (Turf)

1. Surf Cat (KY), 123, Alex O. Solis
2. Lava Man (CA), 123, Corey S. Nakatani
3. Out of Control (BRZ), 123, Michael C. Baze
4. Zann (KY), 123, Aaron T. Gryder
5. Get Funky (FL), 119, Jose Valdivia, Jr.

Right time for Surf Cat to try the grass? Prediction: Lava Man enjoys surf & turf dinner at SA; Surf Cat no better than 3rd, maybe off the board.

Out of Control will score if Baze covers him up early. He made the lead too soon in his Del Mar races.

There are 3 of the top ten sprinters in the country in that race, according to the experts on the TVG Speed Zone.

Would love to see Surf Cat wear down Lava Man at the wire and go on to win the BC Mile on turf ala War Chant.

Bordonaro has found a field and track that he can wire.

Hmm who do people like for 2nd in the Secret? Bai and Bai? Tough Tiz's Sis? I'll probably do an exacta with Hystericalady on top with those two on the bottom.

I love Greg's Gold and did well playing him at Del Mar in the Pat O'Brien (7f) and underneath In Summation in the Bing (6f)..

I think the surface and the distance in the Ancient Title play against him. Bordonaro or maybe even Idiot Proof win and GG will be a close second.

Default The California Milers are tough

Another excellent race, Zann, Outta Control and Courtnall usually put up some pretty interesting fights on the turf. Lava Man? Didn't play him but thought he would have some fight. Very good race just like Tiago and Awesome Gem last week. Same with Tough Tizs Sis running down Hysterical Lady. I'm not betting this weekend, taking my notes for the Breeders Cup. But close competitive races.

Surf Cat looked rank into the first turn
Lava Man doesn't appear interested in running anymore

And he looked like a donkey the rest of the way. What a piece of crap he is now.
