Interesting field for the James Marvin.
Ramon riding a firster for Peter Pugh..... |

It's worth watching the sale workout on that horse. You had to figure with the purchase price that it'd be pretty good.

I wasn't blown away.

|

For a NY bred with a rather underwhelming pedigree (unless you're a fan of Kaffiend) it was a pretty solid workout under minimal to no urging.

The Marvin looks like a very good race that should be a great betting race.
|
#8
|
||||
|
||||
That might be the best field ever assembled for $75,000.
|
#9
|

|
||||
In the fifth race is a 2yo 550k Smart Strike filly debuting for Ass. She's out of MMSC.

Problem is Leparoux is riding her
|

Wow, I had not noticed that.
That seems like a bad fit. |
#12
|
||||
|
||||
Without looking @ PP's, 7 of 11 can win this. Very tough $75K stake.

Whats really amazing is if they double the purse and made it a grade 3 they would get 6 of them.
|

|

Give the connections time - they could still make it a scratch-fest.
|
#15
|
||||
|
||||
Sure is!

Maybe in 2011.

Maybe? I'd love to hear of one this good in recent memory.

I was splitting hairs...you said "ever." The superlative struck me.

I wonder how Carl Doran felt when he saw the overnights. "Got this nice horse, just cleared his 3rd level allowance, probably a decent spot to try a stakes at Saratoga, should be competitive"
...and he'll be 100-1.
