8/28 (SAR): Travers Day

[pucknut]

when in doubt use class
super saver towers overs this mediocre crop of 3yo's in terms of class
you've even got optional claimers in this race
few graded stakes winners and the rest haven't won or are trying to break through late
when are you ever going to get a derby winner as the third or fourth choice in a travers
when do you see pletcher in a grade 1 as a dog
11/6,4/all
love super saver in this spot
has a race over
the haskell wasn't as bad as it looked and this horse is not in the same sentence as the travers with any of the public handicappers

super sleeper

I don't agree with his reasoning, but I do like Super Saver a bit today. I think his Haskell was better than it looked, he'll sit a decent trip in behind the speed and he's one of the few proven at the distance. He's good value at ~6-1 IMO.

Yeah if you draw a line through the Preakness he looks a lot better. I just can't get that perfect trip in the Derby out of my mind. It should be interesting to see what Borel does out of the gate.
