I've watched about 3 dozen replays of horses in this race. I do not see how Mach Ride does not run well tomorrow. His Calder run was by far the best speed effort at the Summit and Bling would be co-2nd favorite if he ran in this race. The CB went slighly faster than the Smile for older horses and Mach had to run up hard on the rail after missing the start by a half step.

At 6-1, he's my play. 8-1 brings out the max bet. He'll also be my p-3 and p-4 single.

good luck.... it looks like a great day of racing if the weather holds.
Agreed. People have annoited Henny as the best sprinter and he will have to prove it to me.

Henny has looked nice after he shortened up but the only reason he is sprinting is because he couldnt keep up with the quality routers this year. The real sprinter will get him in the end.

Several Sprint champions (like Orientate), have taken that path.. If you think HH and Songster are going to be life and death on the front end..what's wrong with Court Folly..one more time.
