how far is the race, if its 8f, 8.5f he has a good shot, 9f might be too long. where is it, if its out west at 8.5f or less, he has a real good shot, imo. proly his best is at 8f.

Private Vow's gotta come around eventually!

I really think either High Cotton or Private Vow will win this race. Simon Pure should hit the board.

I agree he doesn't seem to want to go much past 8 furlongs. D Wayne threw him in way over his head this spring--think the horse has talent but afraid he may have been discouraged. The mare Life's Magic is perhaps my personal favorite ever.
