Spent a lot of time handicapping Oaklawn yesterday and that one was really buzzy. But that field wasn't very good- a below average Lukas entry was 3rd choice. And traditionally Pletcher doesn't ship...

Polydream is a huge scratch.

Trip handicappers would have been all over that one.

On the Dirt Mile, treat any Sadler horse as radioactive. It's not just that his horses are 0-41 in the BC, they often have run up the track at short odds.

I'll bet Awesome Slew at big odds and hope...

1:15 1/5 is considered "equal" to 1:09 flat on the Beyer chart (assuming similar run-up timing.)

Stating the obvious, but the 4 is one of the best grass 3yo's this country has seen in a long time. The Transylvania was a devastating performance in a race that is turning out to be key.

Curious to...

Thewayiam out of the turf race, sounded like she was going to run regardless of condition. She would have been 1/9.

He went off at 5/2. There were some burners in that race including Spanish Chestnut, who went a crazy half.

He ran 3x as a 2yo so I'm not sure he's the best comp. Bodemeister is the best I've got.

The Belmont Oaks-Derby figures make no sense. NMH was 3 points faster than OP, not sure how an 11 point adjustment can be justified.

It was like a 57 or a 59. Just brutal. But this is amongst the lowest I've seen for a non-2yo G1.
