Belmont edges closer; Migliore says goodbye..
By kasept. Filed in Uncategorized |
Outstanding holiday weekend of action ended Monday on a high note with Eoin Harty’s ‘Best Value’ top tab Victor’s Cry stealing the Shoemaker Mile at 21-1. That result buoyed the bankroll on the deep Memorial Day card of action across the country which was highlighted by Quality Road’s efficient Met Mile win over noble Musket Man. The leading Horse of the Year contender nearing the midway point of 2010, Quality Road earned a 114 Beyer for his performance, and may be on his way to a special, Ghostzapper kind of campaign. Hope you did well and enjoyed the three days of excellent action. Belmont Week underway, with nice lead-up cards to the big Saturday that marks the end of the ’10 Triple Crown trail.
If you missed Rich Migliore on ATR Wednesday, try to listen to his thoughts on the day of his retirement announcement. A consummate professional, Mig’s approach to his craft, the game and life overall serves as an exemplar for all.
