Can't wait for the Breeders Cup this year. It'll be interesting to see if Beholder goes in the Ladies Classic against Songbird.

Chrome looked great this week, him and Frosted are shaping up to be one hell of a battle.

Mohawk continues to feature big pools and it's nice to see the p5 growing in popularity up there. Perhaps the Meadowlands could learn something from this and find some purse money to attract real horses week in and week out.



This is without a doubt my favorite bet! The payouts on these things are unreal.

With these 3 horses in the race, you go there hoping to see a world record mile...oh sorry you have to watch them race an extra eighth of a mile now.  birdienana birdienana birdienana

Sass raced a huge mile in the 1st. And I really liked Jody's horse in the 2nd, was kinda surprised Waples was 2/5 especially with the double being so small to Jody.

None of the horses that qualified well at Southern Oaks have had success up north in their 1st start.

Wish I would've remembered that last night.  4pezz2

Horses never seem to run to their qualifiers from this place, no way I believe those times are accurate.

I don't think Oscar will win, do think he will do better than what many think.  I have been in Nyquist's corner for some time and have yet to think he can be flat out beaten.  Of course with the big field he could easily get hammered or even stumble.  I had no doubt he would beat Moyhamen  in Florida.  Of course even I didn't think Moyhamen would throw in such a stinker.

This last part is what makes me wonder about his last race. It wasn't that he just got smoked by Nyquist, but he lost to a horse that he buried twice in a row and another horse that had just broke his maiden in his 5th try.

Mohays  last work before the Derby looked real good to me

I do believe  Oscar's win at TP was the same race Animal won before his Derby


Down to post draw next week for me.Here's hoping Baffert ONeill and Pletcher all draw 1-2-3

Mohaymen has really seem to like the Churchill surface, he was a bit crazy today jumping in the air before his work started which is weird since previously they said he always looks asleep out there.

AK at least had a 94 beyer in the Spiral, I just can't like a horse that has a career 82 beyer like Oscar has. I'm not so sure he is even a good enough turf horse.  rflmao1 rflmao1

It seems like the field has a lot of slower horses this year, more than normal. Could just be me.

Hard to toss Nyquist off any list.The slop may have really helped EX last time out.
I still have not tossed Mohaymen.Im going wait to see all the works before making a list

I can't get rid of Mohaymen either. He has worked really well at Churchill and if he just hated the surface and wide trip, he might be able to rebound.

I do believe Animal Kingdom with strong turf breeding in his 1st race on the dirt won the Ky Derby in 2012

The CD dirt historically has been kind to horses w turf breeding

Animal Kingdom >>>>>>>> Oscar Nominated

Oscar Nominated will not be on any of my tickets unless I have an all. Turf horse with turf breeding that's never been on the dirt before, and gets in via a polytrack win. Even the Ramsey's seem to think he has no shot but wanted to get Kitten's Joy some more recognition.
