R8 - G2 Sky Classic

#7 Marchfield - Should benefit from from his stablemate (#8 Woodbourne) & #3 Marlang applying pressure on the favorite #5 Rahy's Attorney, who was allowed to set pedrestrian like fractions in his latest G2 score. WON
#2 Champs Elysees (GB) - Made a middle move after breaking slowly as usual in G2 Nijinsky and flattened out. Today seems like things will be different and he should round out the exacta. 2nd
#5 Rahy's Attorney - He's in too good of form to be ignored completely, but he's never shown he can rate and he must show that dimension here to compete.
#6 Medjool - Casse also sends out the wildcard in the race (He sends out #7 & #8), he's always been spotted aggressively and could easily be included for all slots at a huge price. 3rd

Cold Exacta - 7 2 PAID $21.30
Tri Box - 2 5 6 7 PAID $131.90 for a buck

Arlington Park

R6 - Clm 14k

#9 Nan Ann Rocks
#6 Sweet Janelle
#2 Guanahani 2nd
#1 Holy Geri WON

R7 - MSW 38k (2yo 8F Turf)

#2 Mint Chip
#5 Looks Purrfect
#11 Protection Game 2nd
#7 Our Douglas 3rd

R8 - OC62k / N3X

#4 Just Julian WON

#6 Sidcup
#3 Mr. Soul

R9 - Md 40k (Turf)

#7 Cape Karoo
#11 Smart N Lonely
#3 Aldebutante
#1 My Eyes for You

PK4 - 1 2 6 9 / 2 5 11 / 2 4 / 3 7 11 = $72

Good Racing Luck

Bogey,
Thanks for this, The Sky Classic is a good race with good horses. One glaring omission is Roger Attfield didn't bother entering a horse in here. You have to wonder what he thinks his chances are against Rahy's Attorney.

You figured that Attfield would've starter Musketier, but elected the Sword Dancer instead.

I'm playing against Rahy's Attorney because of the expected pace scenario and the fact that he's giving away 3lbs to Marchfield and 8lbs to the rest of them. Champs Elysees was actually 1.90-1 and RA was 1.80-1 over him in the G2 Nijinsky and gets 8lbs today. I don't think Rahy's Attorney had to take a deep breath in his last two and you would imagine that #8 Woodbourne's only purpose in the race is to apply early pressure to set it up for one of his stablemates. If Rahy's passes this test I will be more than impressed. Good Luck

I think he also decided to give Society's Chairman a break by bypassing this, I'm not playing this race mostly due to RA, I've tried beating him the last couple of times and he has my utmost respect now. Everytime he steps up in distance he seems vulnerable but he gets the job done. If I could get 5/2 on him I would be on him, goodluck to you today, if he does falter Marchfield is a good alternative. I sort of like Marlang as a pace threat now that he is going longer and he is back on turf however he doesn't look like he is going to get any favors on the front end today. If he did he could last a long time.
