i wonder if a petition to bar any more 'kitten' names would work with the jockey club......

I need some help in the Eight Belles and American Turf.

Thinking hard about riding Midnight Lucky alone in the Oaks.

In the American Turf Im using 4,5,13. I believe War Dancer is something special. Ill press him.

Do these six stakes make up the pick six?

I'm going to have to watch a replay of that last race, but War Dancer, Positively, and Tenforthemoney finished within a half length of each other; all closed into what appeared to be a falling apart late type of race.

Watch the replay. The pace was hot, but War Dancer had a ton of trouble at the start. Ateam pointed out the pace kind of negates the trouble. I guess I agree with him. I just think the horse has done nothing wrong on turf. The horse who beat him first out came back to win a Stakes at Keeneland for Pletcher. I also love the way Garcia is riding right now. Check out his turf ride in Belmonts 90k overnight Stakes today.

I think Noble Tune is the one, and i will really press him.

Does Laugh Track stand any chance whatsoever, in hell, to wire those boys in the Alysheba??

In the Alysheba I like Take Charge Indy and Hymn Book. Im going to let Cyber Secret beat me and run a big race outside of Oaklawn. Ill admit I always like Take Charge Indy, but he ran well last time. That Cigar Street could be a total monster.

In the Eight Belles, I'm very much leaning on Blueeyesintherein, no way this filly will be 8-1 (IMO). Nice opening race in 2013, and appears to handle Churchill no problem. If wet, should be able to handle that also. Gold Medal Dancer has had 2 nice races and not sure what the upside might be for her. Couple of nice works at Churchill also and can run some if there is moisture in the track.

In the American Turf, it's hard for me also to get past Noble Tune and War Dancer as they both appear to be coming up nicely to this race. But, very interested in Bashaar also after the romp in the slop. Breeding suggests that he should handle the grass and I think Danny Peitz wants to see what he has for options in the summer (grass or synthetic).

Midnight Lucky would be a scary single for me in the Oaks but will probably have to use with Unlimited Budget and Dreaming of Julia.

I am not understanding the crazy odds on her.

Such a nice horse.

She'll definitely hit the board...

Maybe I'm nuts but I'm using her in the top spot in a couple of plays.

That'll do.

[cakes44]

And seriously, is it just automatic that a Baffert horse is going to get sent like a MOFO if he feels good about the horse?

At some point on ATR after the discussions on Midnight Lucky, Dreaming of Julia, etc. Princess of Sylmar was mentioned and I remember thinking (and I want to be clear, no redboarding because she wasn't my pick) "you watch, that one will win just because we're giving a lot of attention to some of the others and one of the other nice fillies will sneak in there." Wasn't shocked at all that she won. Just basic science, aka the Murphy's Law Effect.

[my miss storm cat]

Geez thanks and cheers to everyone who did well today!
