does willie go to arlington to ride OR use a jockey already at arlington??
what is the purse?

Believe it's a $30,000 satch... Martinez up in the air. (Let's get her close first...)

Wow, I Feel Like A Pinball Bouncing Around From Jersey To Kentucky To Arlington.

Just waiting for Saratoga to open up
or was it Delmar :p

Damn! I was hoping you guys would bring her here, but I'll be out of town that week and won't be able to see her.
Oh well. I'm glad to hear she is feeling better, and for those of you who will be going to Arlington for the first time.........you'll love it. It is a first-class facility.

is she gonna train on the poly b/f the race steve ?

Amazing. Guess who will be taking off of work to come down!

P2P,

No.. She showed she's OK with it at Turfway..

Iowa Oaks
 

Le Chateau and Humble Janet, first and third respectively in SWLY's last race are both entered. How do you think we would have matched up against this field?

Using the complex theory of extrapolation I'll go with 9-1. :p

Not sure I would want to see her against the likes of High Again and her
+200K earnings....

what is crazy is they only have 3 confirmed starters for the Mother Goose!

the Goose is ours

I mean come on she can beat at least 1 of the 3

Belmont is notorious for 6 horse fields with at least 1 scratch

I know Lady Joanne and Octave are in who's the third?

Boca Grande

Mother Goose

CLOSED SATURDAY, JUNE 16, 2007 WITH 19 NOMINATIONS


tough big name fillies

but for some reason I was thinking Sumwon could handle the 1 turn 9f Belmont

Very curious to see how Le Chateau does in there.

Just to be clear, I wasn't suggesting that would be a field for her just that it's amazing that a G1 at Belmont Park only draws this many and everyone else chooses to go elsewhere. Who's afraid of Octave? :eek: I can certainly see the point that one can really luck into graded wins!

Here are the nominations with PP's... which included Sumwon...

In the long run, I think you will see that it is good not to run Sum over that Prairie Meadows racetrack. 1) I can't figure that track out for nothing and 2) it seems that horses just aren't the same after they run over it, alot of arlington people ship over for it and when they ship back, they were good bet againsts (back when it was dirt, not sure with it being poly if that will hold)
