The La Troienne is really the "bounce back" stakes. Unrivaled Belle was every bit of awful in the Rampart last time out and Blind Luck seems to be a bit below her best so far this year.

Bill Mott is having a truly horrendous year thus far in dirt races. In the last 90 days he's 1-41 outside of Tampa Bay Downs, where he had 3 winners during that time period. That 1 win from 41 starters is good for an ROI of $0.15.

All Due Respect is racing in Michael Nevin's name since Dutrow can't get licensed and her debut for Dutrow after getting purchased privately by Pompa was terrific. She has routinely flopped in graded stakes company but that was before the barn change.

It's an interesting race on a terrific card.

There seems to be plenty that will seek the lead here. I think it sets up nice for Blind Luck.

I am hoping Blind Luck can get back, she has run into some tough setups and company this year. They were smart enough to avoid Harve de Garce last out so hopefully she can pull it together for the win.

Which race Friday is the Horses & Hope race? Didn't see it on the recap sheet this morning.

Why is Regal Ransom in the Alysheba?

Here's a horse who last season, and through his entire career really, was only successful in opportunistic, paceless, spots. He looked like a horse who's career might be revived by a cutback in distance.

Finally given an opportunity to sprint for the first time since his impressive maiden win a couple of years ago, he responds with a nice--and more importantly, rallying--effort at GP against the likes of Cpt. Candyman Can.

Does Godolphin take the hint?

Nope. Let's try and improve on that impressive 2010 campaign...by running in the same sort of spots. He should be in the Churchill Downs Stakes.

Looks like it's going to be a bad week for the broodmare Kelli's Ransom all the way around...
