I am right with you. I think he has a huge chance at good odds.

Hit this one . . . and lost $20. Better than not hitting at all!

TENTH RACE ALLOWANCE OPTIONAL CLAIMING
Purse $59,000. (Plus $5,000 F.O.A. Winner Supp.) For Four Year Olds And
Upward Which Have Not Won $25,000 Twice Other Than Maiden, Claiming
Or Starter Since August 2, 2007 Or Claiming Price $100,000.
Weight 124 lbs.
Non-winners Of Two Races Since January 3 2 lbs.
A Race Since Then 4 lbs.
(Maiden , Claiming, And Starter Races Not Considered In Allowances)
SIX FURLONGS

If the horse was doing well and ready to go, why not run for the bigger purse? The bullets he has shown indicate that he is okay with the GP dirt surface, so why run here today?

I could be way off base, but it just seems odd to me.

Quite possibly the Super Stakes on 2/9 going 7F. He ran a very nice 2nd in it last year and also won going 7 in the Kenny Noe in Dec, '06.

Maybe he needed the race today but I didn't think he looked very good.

Could be a nice P4 (of course now that I say that, it'll go chalk/chalk/chalk/chalk and pay about $80).

GL Doc.

Didn't miss that by much. Maybe next time I'll just shut up.
