I'm sticking with this... with these 4.

If one scratches I'll use Rose Kingdom or Jaguar Mail but otherwise it's all about these four as far as I can see.

Will probably play Oken Bruce Lee and Buena Vista on top in different combinations and then maybe a win bet on Voili Ici or Meisho Beluga (depending on the odds. I would assume Buena Vista will be the favorite followed by Victorie Pisa and Nakayama Festa, the two who made the trip to France, who I'm not using).

I realize Ms. Beluga just raced last weekend but I'm thinking she's in the form of her life. No reason why she won't be right there at the end with the Queen of Japan...

I'll go with Jaguar Mail and Dandino (sounds like he's a character on Hawaii 5-0).


Book 'em Dandino!

I can't see past 2 horses winning this year, Nakayama Festa and Buena Vista, the latter will be heavily backed making her very unattractive to back on top, however she will be a good play on the bottom of the exactas, the former will be more attractive in the win slot. Not sure how he has come back from the Arc, Japanese info is always abit sketchy but I guess they wouldn't be running if he wasn't acting well. If he doesn't go off as the fav, he should be a steal at whatever price as 2nd or 3rd choice.

Masayoshi Ebina
"I can't say about how he's been since he's come back, but I'm confident the stable will have him in the best shape possible. He has a habit of playing around in training, but he's completely locked in during races.

When does this Barrier thing happen in East Coast time?

Good luck to all of us.

Gee Clydie I think it's on around 10:30 or so out here so 1:30ish.

All I want to know is, how many times did Mike Smith finish last or close to last, last night????

In other words, Moore schooled them all in every which way and Smith is still having a Zenyatta hangover.
