I haven't made up my mind on this, so I'd appreciate thoughts.
Scat Daddy looks beatable to me.
Money might be made here.

DTS,

I agree that he looks beatable in this spot. I'm interested in seeing how I'm a Numbers Guy does.

I was expecting to see Tiz Wonderful in here.

Anyone know what's up with him?

Thanks for the input.
I have to look more.
I never toss out a Coa ridden one, either.
Peg and Numbers seem likely.
Time to think...

Obviously Scat Daddy, Nobiz, and Pegasus will be the first three betting choices.
I'manumbersguy worked in bullet time earlier this week, which apparently was a good enough work to cause them to go after this race instead of the NY-bred stakes race in a week. He may be good enough to get a piece here. His defection made my buddy who owns the runnerup to him in his last start very happy. bad Boy Rising will likely be favored in that NY Bred Stakes race. Had numbersguy run, BBR would have likely been 8-1 or higher.
I like Pegasus to improve here.

Oracle,
Do you know anything about Buffalo Man?
Is this one going to be a longshot at a very big price?
Look who's riding him.
Thanks for finding out.

that's the first thing I thought of when I saw numbersguy in the champagne. BBR will be very tough in next week's NY bred stakes race.
