Great this will be my 2007 gem, like Point Determined, Borrego, Perfect Drift, Dollar Bill, etc..................................

Interesting....I like CQ and find it interesting Johnny V takes off King of the Roxy for him.
Hope the track is playing fair on Saturday, and we might have an interesting race after all.

Why would he possibly ride King of the Roxy over Circular Quay?

[KirisClown]

Todd must want to add to his 0 for stats...

Only because I assume he committed to Team Valor. Not because he prefers the horse over CQ.
I'm sure the Kingoftheroxy connections would be fine with Gomez, but since Gomez has had past success riding CQ, maybe they just put him back up?

Well, I'm still evaluating that possibility. It's weird to me that there was no mention of him running until this past weekend and now he's a go. I'll have to watch the odds but he is certainly going to be a value underneath in exactas. As far as this weekend I haven't heard a word. I'm thinking maybe Tom will be hosting? I'll let you know when I hear.

I think the "connections" are looking to make up for their poor Derby showing...can't see him winning though.

[Bobby Fischer]

He was moving pretty well from about the first quarter up until about 6.5 furlongs where he was moving parallel to Street Sense and had no where to go, then while trying to go outside of the mob, brushes with Dominican ... Once CQ brushes with Dominican he then swerves back inside of one horse and then outside of the pack, ending up wide on the turn...

IMO he could have gotten 4th or vied for 3rd with a smooth trip.

At 2:46 on the video there is a red arrow identifying Street Sence. To his immediate right is Circular Quay.

- Pletcher wouldn't run this horse unless he had a VERY good chance to atleast hit the board. . . He was so embarassed after the Derby that I don't think he'd subject himself to more criticism unless he thought he had a good shot for CQ to silence the haters. . .

- While I don't think the pace is going to be as fast as some do, it looks on paper like it could set up for him

- The shorter distance should suit him nicely as well. . .

I'll be using Hard Spun and CQ in my pick bets
