Fatal Bullet – Didn't look great in his work on the Pro-R. He is never asked for much in works though. Seemed to struggle early, and do better late. Didn't seem thrilled with surface, but who knows.


Black Seventeen- Nothing to give in the work on Pro-R.

M-Lute- Great Mover on PRO-R....Always works good though.

This is from the Racing Post:

Tony Elves

"SIXTIES ICON galloped at Lingfield on Friday in preparation for his tilt at the Breeders' Cup Marathon on Saturday and will leave Newmarket on Sunday for Santa Anita.

"The Galileo horse has won four of his five starts this season and gained his latest win in fine style, when beating Sugar Ray by two and a quarter lengths in the Group 3 Cumberland Lodge Stakes at Ascot last month.

"Sixties Icon worked over 1m in company with Whistledownwind and quickened up nicely in the closing stages.
Trainer Jeremy Noseda said: "I was very happy with Sixties Icon. He took the left-handed turns really well and seems in good form."

Sixties Icon won the classic St. Leger at 14f a couple of years ago and is a genuine 12f+ animal. If he takes to the Pro-ride, he will be ultra-dangerous.

I also caught that comment from Mike Welsch, he's one of their more respected handicappers in my opinion. Something to think about if you were high on FB.

Well, he looked great on the poly last time(no doubt.) Problem is:

1) Ran poorly on dirt in New YORK, and then returned to winning ways on the Poly.

2) Ran poorly on turf. So, the only good races are on poly(I think, LOL.)

3) Hasn't looked like he enjoys the Pro-Ride in the a.m. The trainer gave out a myriad of excuses today for the way he has looked lately on this surface. Says he wakes up when the blinks go on etc. The trainer admitted to attending every Breeders Cup so far(as a fan.) So, I think this is a dream come true for him(to make it to the B.C. with a horse.) Won't stun me if he wins, because you can't rule a horse out just by a couple works. I think you should atleast look like you like the surface (but we will see.) I think the guy shows chickens. I am not making a joke. I guess some people breed chickens to "show."
