Default Tomcito !!!

working like a true monster beast at keenland, dam....

Tuesday morning, Tomcito sharpened for the race by working three furlongs from the gate in 34.60 seconds over the Keeneland Polytrack.

"I think I have the horse to beat," Zanelli said. "He is getting better and better, and he is not even blowing" after the work.

im not touting him... i liked him in florida, and his third really did not do it for me.
if he runs well this weekend and makes it to the derby he could be interesting

they're not weird. you couldn't predict weird.

but ever since pg came back you could depend on a post after a prep was run that he liked the winner in the derby. sometimes the second place runner.

just wait for the lexington and see.

can you say derby fever, theres probably 20 trainers right now claiming they have the horse to beat ! watch the races , read the horses form and come up with a vialable horse at a valuable price. if you listen to trainers and owners you'll be betting all 19 or 20 of them ! watch the next 3 weeks ,if you listen to sports casters and writers , most who know nothing about horse racing . big brown will be Gods gift , take the chalky price and take your lumps derby day .

Most importantly, he has a three syllable name. How many "t" horses have won the Derby in the last, say, 20 years? Thunder Gulch (also three syllables)?

Street Sense broke a streak of six straight three syllable winners of the Derby.

Maybe he's another polytrack lover that can win the Lexington, but he's not Derby material.
