How in the world did Lookin at Lucky win
I thought flying over the Rockies was going to be his downfall

Ho hum. Garcia took him 3 wide in the first turn. 3 wide in the far turn and he won by daylight. Got a neg 2 in the Preakness. He got a fig equivalent or better in this IMO.

That's subjective. What isn't subjective is the time, which was pedestrian. It wasn't a wicked fast track to begin with, and perhaps it got slower throughout the day, but a 110-115 Beyer still seems unlikely compared to the other dirt races IMO.

Trappe Shot had terrible position after a slow start - and took the worst of some race riding going into the first turn.

When he was caught behind Lookin At Lucky early - it was over for him.

I hope they cut Trappe Shot back to 7 furlongs for the King's Bishop where he would be very tough to beat... but they'll probably follow the money into the Travers.

Omniscient (winner of Race #3) will get the exact same Beyer figure that Lookin At Lucky will unless the choose to split it. No way in hell it's a 115

Not even close. Without going too deep into the card... I get about a 101-102.

I'll bet it's higher. I think they'll give him something in the 105-109 range.

Both the Haskell and Jim Dandy Beyer almost certainly will be 105.

Omniscient gets whatever Lookin At Lucky gets. A Little Warm and Miner's Reserve ran back to the Delaware race.

Was this really an epidemic 5 months ago here?

Not so sure, but don't let that stop you.

Glad I missed out on today's wagering. Only a.ssholes get excited about 6/5 shots. They're the same type of people that wear jerseys of their favorite players.

I'll offer a 2nd opinion that it was.

I believe there were many posters referring to him regularly as "Looking at Sucky."


Now he's won The Preakness and The Haskell.

As did Rachel Alexandra to cement her Super Star status.

Apparently you missed the KY Oaks last year. Oh and that Woodward thing to.
