Delaunay, the one that put an end to Calzone Lord's consecutive streak of winners.

Delaunay lands at the prestigious Iowa Fest of Racing, huh?
I guess it's easy money

It actually is prestigious, lots of horses have went on to win very big races from this weekend.

Fully understanding that he's in the race because it is run at his owner's home track, it's a little comical that they passed on a 400k race at Belmont that he was mentioned for, and a 350k race next week at Calder that he was mentioned for too.

Chance Delaunay lands in the Vanderbilt with a win in Iowa? Should be 100% and it is not.

The Vanderbilt is 6f, and Fast Bullet is being pointed to that race. He was left in NY after his huge win on Belmont day. Fast Bullet will run Delaunay into the ground in the Vanderbilt just like he would have on Belmont day. Delaunay would be better suited if they pointed for the Forgo. I think you can make a strong argument that Delaunay’s last race was his best, EVER. He is 4-4 at 7f going back to January of 2012.

Racing in 2013, almost everybody ducks competition when possible. It sucks.

I was just mostly saying these are historically pretty darn good races.
