I stopped by Arlington tonight and the Poly looks amazing, pretty f'n cool if you ask me

BOATLOADS of cash to be made at Arlington. BOATLOADS

We might see a half way decent FULL FIELD of 12 dirt race in Chicago for the first time EVER

I may head over there today and I'll take a look. I liked the old track; very predictable. Rail was dead 95% of the time and the 3 wide stalkers won almost everything. It was one of the few regular dirt tracks where you could close.

Well that was anti-climactic in every way.

As was the fact that the Trifecta paid the same as the Exacta -- $3.60 for each. And a $4.20 Superfecta payoff.

Awesome.

hey, its not every day you get .21 cents back for a 10 cent super.

MC has developed into an awfully nice horse, though - whether he's grade 1 caliber, I don't know, but he's been pretty darn reliable.

Or hit the tri and wish you wouldn't have risked so much relying on 3 horses, when you could have just played the exacta.

No idea, but he had it all his own way today and still couldn't win. Today has been hell

1) SNS doesn't win
2) Stupid Shane Laviolette actually wins a race to mess up ALL of my pick threes with Rolling Sea singled
3) BLAH

He's fine. Not as good as Master Command however. Take away the Ill Derby and Ky Derby and all SNS races are virtually carbon copies. He's gonna run a 95-105 Beyer and that's that. That's not gonna win too many graded stakes however. In a good spot it may and will get you on the board a lot, and you'll dominate Laurel but it doesn't make you a star.

Well, I think the disappointment in that is that he's basically running the same figures at four that he was at three. Usually, there's some development from three to four, and that doesn't seem to have occurred with him.
