[MISTERGEE]

already dont feel comfortable with any keys. even the short fields like the 5 horse race 8 seems wide open. It will be hit but I dont think by too many low cost ticks?

[lemoncrush]

I'd like to take a shot with a budget ticket, but it does look tricky after looking at the pp's for about an hour. I could see no horse paying more than $12, but still being really difficult to string the 6 winners together.

[MISTERGEE]

my feelings exactly

[Scav]

Nice to see a complicated sequence, I don't see an odds on favorite that is going to be below 8/5.

Couple keys to this sequence as I see it.
1) Will a speed duel set up in the 8th and set up Starforaday?
2) Finding the winner of the 6th, horrendous yet one of the most challenging races I have ever handicapped

1) Starforaday doesn't need a speed duel to win, he never has, which is what makes him so dangerous as opposed to other one-run closers. Either way, West Coast Flier looks like the clear speed to me. Be Bullish might go as well, but WCF is faster early.
2) It's pretty tough, but Hooligan's Delight actually looks like the closest thing to a single on the card for me. It's a dreadful group, and he actually did a little running last time, tracking a fast pace and appearing beaten at the top of the stretch, getting checked and still running on to be second. The cutback should be up his alley, and the outside post should allow him to track Showme Zealous and perhaps Tudor King.

I like Showme Zealous as a price play. His maiden race was good relative to these and it looks like he is bred for the lawn. Trainer has positive lawn stats.

It's not noted on the overnight or DRF, but Crescent Moon Dr (7th) will have blinkers ON....hopefully psychosis off. For what its worth.

Nice pic - that whole album is really disturbing.

West Coast Flier is big time speed-of-the-speed on the pace figs. I think he's a good single.

I'd probably use 2,3,9 in R6.

Its in honor of his Ali like return

Right now, I am 9,10 (A), 7 (B), 1 (C)

What do you see in the 2 and 3?

While we all know ole Rudy is up to something with his godly numbers, I can't use that horse in that spot, not even as a 'C'. While I hate to try and think that jocks will use some common sense, I don't see him clearing in that race.

[hockey2315]

3's dropping and getting blinkers - feels like he has shown enough early in his races to be competitive vs. these bums. 2's dropping and clearly they think he's a turfer. . . Obviously I'd love to have more coverage, but if I actually play this thing I'm not dropping too much in that leg. I'd rather have the lightly raced ones and hope one takes to the distance/surface.

[SCUDSBROTHER]

When they drew for this, did they know about the carryover?

[hockey2315]

no

I actually made a mistake, I had the 3 as a 'C', not the 1

[lemoncrush]

7th) Is the Jerkins' More than Ready horse Ready for Ryan better than he looked in his debut? and what do you make about the Linda Rice 1st timer with Ramon aboard?

9th) Any change Treat Her Right doesn't stop for the first time in ages, and actually takes them wire to wire? Not much speed in this group.

Yes..Yes

In the 7th, I am probably only going two deep. That Jerkins horse was making a move until he stopped, which to me is a sign of bleeding, and he is put on lasix for his. If I had to guess he will go off as favorite/2nd choice. That Rice horse is hard to leave off and if it were sprinting I would say sure, but 8 furlongs she can beat me.

In the 9th, I think she is one of many. The 5 Tomorrows Roses has speed and I am a bit curious why Garcia would take this mount

[NTamm1215]

Leaving off Hooligan's Delight is extremely risky.

Leaving off West Coast Flier is lunacy IMO.

That 8th race is tough. I originally thought that might be a place to find a single, but right now it almost looks like an all race. I think even the 4 could win that race at a square price.

I could see the 1 being a horse you'd include. I want no part of I Ain't No Saint and Be Bullish has been largely ineffective against open company. Law Enforcement's two wins last year were pace-aided and banking on those types of suicidal duels in here is faulty.

Rudy Rod has the 2 moving in the right direction and last time out he dueled a horse into the ground that was 3 for 4 at Belmont coming into that race. I think Cornelio will have little trouble getting clear from the inside and that'll be all she wrote.
