Arlington Million/The race
be interesting to see how the ongoing battle between Cacique and EC continues to play out, especially with both of them carrying the same weight.
I realize there are tons of other great horses in this race, but this is turning out to be a great rivalry. When carrying the same weight, EC is 2-0 vs. Cacique the one time EC lost to Cacique by a 1/2 length, he was carry 2 more pounds. Every little bit helps in these routes.

This is the most wide open Million I have ever seen.....I am hopefully going to using like 5 horses, it is ridiculous how wideopen this race is....10 horse blanket finish, MAJOR RHYTHM WINS(Arlington would burn down, for the 2nd time, if this happens)
My race by race analysis will be up later tonight for all to enjoy...BOOOM BABY, it is PRE MILLION DAY

I'm starting to like Better Talk Now's chances and willing to throw out his unusually bad United Nations. I think the pace will be a lot faster than people think. EC and Cacique are both going to go from the far outside. Theres no way either one of them will just simply drop back and try to close in here. The Tin Man is fast and so is Ace.
I think this race is won by a closer in the final strides. Going to be a dandy.

BTN = Toss for me
I am heading towards the euro loving with a little channel..Probably just play exacta and pick three in this race and possible win money on Touch of Land... i will say this though, English Channel has no excuse in this race, he will get an unbelievable trip unless he breaks bad and should get first run on everyone. With their being no rail, look for horses to just come flying late, Rock of Gibratler(?) style (MAN, that was awesome)

There is no need for all this Gorella talk and debate about the Beverly D.
I'm telling you right now. Rising Cross is your winner

I am confident in her due to her form behind Alexandrova in the English and Irish Oaks.
In my opinion, Alexandrova is better than Ouija Board was in her 3 year old year when she came over here and dusted our crop. And Rising Cross quickened nicely with her and got a nice second at Epsom. The races in England are of a different (and better) type in my opinion than anything we have here. And I don't see Gorella as being a top class filly/mare over in Europe, she just stands out here because she had an impressive run against our boys in the mile last year. She would just be another filly/mare over in Europe, and Rising Cross isn't just another filly in my opinion. Film Maker is in a good spot here, but I don't see her winning. I am only on Rising Cross to win. No place or show wagers here.

I sure do Kev. He won't be finishing very far off of them, and might get fifth by 1 1/2 lengths. But that is where I feel he will be.
