Andy, on the MSG show, said Pletcher was very concerned with the track bias. He said this before the race; afterwards, he said that Pletcher just decided that he didnt want the best horse in the race to lose because of the track. They did come home slowly, but that's understandable given the fractions. DM is very speedy, but he prefers to stalk, so I don't think his finishing fractions off of a 44 and change half are a big deal.

However, not running until the BC Sprint is a big deal...........then again, perhaps he'll need the rest as this is two big efforts in a row.

One more thing Andy said: with the slow closing fractions, no one really made up ground, so that's a big deal with regards to the Travers

Oddly, Ice Box is favored right now?

I think he's overrated..........

Miner's Reserve is close to 50-1; I don't think he's going to win, but that's nice juicy price

King Glorious 08-28-2010 04:37 PM

Realizing that one was for 3yos and the other for older females, I'd take Rightly So's race over Discreetly Mine's as the better sprint race.

Any chance these pinheads go crazy fighting for the front and this is the one race that collapses today?

JerseyJ 08-28-2010 04:40 PM

I think it's laughable that Admiral Alex is 8-1...he should be 800-1. May take a flyer on Trappe Shot at 9/2.

King Glorious 08-28-2010 04:41 PM

Taking First Dude to finally turn the tables on Fly Down with Trappe Shot third.

Certainly it could happen, but Miner's Reserve has the speed to hold the rail and has to be moved up at over 30-1 right now.

tjfla 08-28-2010 04:44 PM

Agree how is Admiral Alex at 8-1? and they realize that Ice Box is a closer and no rain?

Sightseek 08-28-2010 04:46 PM

They could go crazy up front with Dude in blinks & Miners. A Little Warm is very patient...

Sightseek 08-28-2010 04:53 PM

Oh man, that sucks for Zito again.

JerseyJ 08-28-2010 04:55 PM

Super Saver sucks...3-5 he's retired after this race.

As high as I was about DM, I am really crushed by Fly Down's loss
