I remember Bill Mott talking about how he lost a good horse to the track just can't remember if it was inner or outer but it was definately mud

I have to call poor taste posting that. I've never heard such a thing at AQ at all.

I will be shocked if Calvello goes off at lower odds than Lloyd (and will be rushing to the window).

Anyone traveling tomorrow better check on the status of racing. They are calling for a major storm with heavy rain and major wind gusts. I would think that there is a good chance on them canceling tomorrow. Maybe Andy would know if they are discussing it at this point, but if the storm is as bad as they are saying I would think that the card is in danger.

I agree it was in poor taste but I did hear it years ago.

(edit) This is all the way back in 1998

Time flies it seemed like it was just the other day

Bet we go off the "lukewarm" favorite......8-5 or 9-5 over Ryan's Gift 2-1

DRF closer look by Kenny Peck:

"LLOYDOBLER: Stakes-placed dam won twice in 8 starts; she's produced 8 other starters, all winners, including 7 runners who were multiple winners; '02 Derby Trial winner Sky Terrace was probably best of the lot; this colt weakened after flashing speed at a mile in his latest but he closed nicely in his debut, at this distance, and he may be set up for his best try yet in his 3rd career start after that "bounce" in his latest."

This doesn't seem to take into consideration one of, if not the, goldest rails of this winter last out, the rankness and failure to change leads. Maybe we will get a better price than I was thinking!

Nick - I wish this were the case, but this is Dee Tee we are talkin about.

LOL, as much as DT can completely change a pool at a smaller track, I don't think we can have that big of an effect at Aqueduct on a Saturday card. At least I hope . . . .

hmmm, hoping that King's Pardon goes off at close to the M/L was looking at using him with Lloyd and Cavello - KP would make the payout nicer ;-)
