He, like Friends Lake, stands at Airdrie coincidentaly.

scuds i like you thought yankee bravo had a shot in the la derby.he seemed to be climbing a lot early and yes got a bit of a jerky ride late.he will have to show me at least 1 really good race on dirt.. pyro s la derby was not that good..and like drugs think hes not doing enough..downgradeing that race is the right choice....thus makes the fla derby very imprortant this year imo.

I personally dont think he'll hit the board. In a perfect world where the stars lined up for him i think that type of running style gives him his best shot of hitting the board the Derby. Doesn't matter because it's a moot point.
