So you are telling me Chamberlain Bridge and Champs Elysees have no shot?

Champs Elysees has no SHOT. I guess if your talking about a check, then he can clunk for 3rd-4th.

Chamberlain Bridge is ok, but I like 2-3 other horses more for the win. Jungle Wave on the cutback is clearly the one to beat IMO.

I like Heros Reward a bit more than Garrett's horse but he will be tough to run down imo.

Talk about a hard knocker, game old campaigner. Does Heros Award ever miss a beat?

Are you planning on betting these? I am, Im already trying to put the pick 3 together. Im looking as we speak... I plan on putting 50-75 into maybe 2 tickets. One of the tickets, I will single Jungle Wave in the first leg and go 1-5-5 with a spread for $25... Then I will cover more in Leg a on the other ticket and narrow the other 2 legs down to 3,4.... so something like this 3-4-3 or 3-4-4

Never a fan of "blinkers on" in turf races. Any idea why they're making this equipment change?

He has worn a visor the last few years so dont really know why they are switching to blinkers. I know for him, he used to race far too lazily and the visor certainly sharpened him up. I believe this has been his aim for the last few months and I expect a big run at a nice price..

I would say the addition of lasix would be the key change for him in the Can Intl. his connections have used this angle before and he has reportedly worked well with it already.

He hit the fence 2 back and lost all chance in the Coronation and was basically eased, his form looks worse than what it really is, I hope no one reads this board but Buccellati is my bet if he is near the 10-1 ML. Andrew Balding has already won a few throughout the years at Woodbine if my memory is correct.

I like him too, although I shall root for Quijano once again (even though he'll disappoint). (Again).

Treat Gently, Eastern Aria in the EP Taylor.

An interesting betting board with many chances, I can see the majority of the money landing on:

Just As Well, Champs Elysees, Marsh Side and Jukebox Jury.

Leaving Quijano and Buccellati as the value.

Spice Route and Allied Forces will be the designated longshots.

Maybe. Depends on the odds and how I do earlier in the day! I like somebody at Belmont Sunday (a lot) so I will be conservative on Saturday.
