I don't like the way he's been handled lately.

Then again, I never like how any of Harty's horses are handled, and that didn't stop me.

I was actually referring to Indian Winter, who I don't think is as bad as his last race looks. We'll see, he's a 15-1 shot worth using in the exotics.

I know you meant Indian Winter. I don't like how Dorf has been handling him.

Then it occurred to me that I don't like how Anthony's Cross has been handled either, but I still think he'll do well in the race.

I'm just really used to Harty being the new Hassinger/Bradshaw.

Speaking of which - did you see the expensive first-time-starter Pippy's got that Ryerson is training on the Wood Memorial undercard?

I thought they were getting out of the game - and they go pay 160K for a Trippi?

He told me an interesting story about that horse earlier today.

Did you take notes on that horse from that sale last year?

If it's not UM or PP, it don't matter.

Was just looking at race this morning and he caught my eye too..

I cant see any beating MO. Maybe Mo and the Factor burn each other up on the front end but It looks like Mo can carry it on. Assmusens 2nd place horse in the La Derby and the Fu-peg can pick up the pieces and fill out the exotics. I have made the mistake too many times by getting off a horse because his odds are too short. How dumb. Just dot bet. other than bet the odds that will make anicer pay. Even tho you see the best horse with the short odds.

Just brilliant stuff. Thank you.

Read the title of the thread.:rolleyes: It's about who you think has a chance now, not what you will be betting in a month. Loosen up or have some friggen decaf.

Uncle Mo- unless he is horrible this weekend or gets hurt
Premier Pegasus- had "the move" on the turn and kept going
Jaycito- will know more after this weekend, but Baffert has been high on him all along and he surveyed the entire Churchill track.

OldDog 04-07-2011 09:45 AM
