Default Arlington's Saturday Card - DRF Contest
Holy christ that card is a good one. can't believe it.

We get a Nakatini appearance also, pretty stoked about that

If I had to guess, the 7,9,10 are mandatories and 2,4,5,11 have good shots at being a mandatory also. For sure the 1st race will not be a mandotory, they don't want that cluster**** at the windows that early.

How badly do you think Douglas will want to beat Anna Sat?

Touch My Soul will be ridden by four-time Arlington Park champion and current leading jockey Rene Douglas

My opinion on the race is that if she was lock city, there would be 7 entries. She will be the underlay of the race and will run 3rd. Don't have the winner yet

You know, I was just thinking the same thing. Imagine if Douglas was riding for Catalano/Calabrese how many wins he would have, and not this clown E.T.

Just proves that anyone can win aboard C/C's horses, except Ariel Smith.

i remember at the eclipse awards Cal was praising Douglas to no end, talking about how great he was and how the BCJ race was such a masterful ride.

i was thinking it might have had something to do with Douglas taking the Pletcher mounts this year.

Douglas picked running 1st call for Pletcher (against any C/C entry) and due to that, they dropped him from Lewis Michael and Dreaming of Anna and replaced with C/C's new 1st call rider.

Can somebody tell me if Eat Pie runs for Mark Wallace? and, if so, what is the race like (quality wise)?

Thanks in advance.
