Mauralakana is going to be tough and I'll have a hard time leaving Visit or Halfway To Heaven off any multi race ticket I play. What about Vacare underneath at a price?
I've given up on Vacare. I had high hopes for her after her three-year-old season, but she's done nothing but disappoint me since.

It's not really debatable that Mauralakana had a significantly worse trip than Dynaforce in the Flower Bowl. Why wouldn't Dynaforce have "accelerated away" from Mauralakana? Soft course or no, that was Dynaforce's best chance to beat Mauralakana, and she took advantage. Good for her, but I don't see a remotely similar setup materializing in this race.

I don't think I will be playing too much tomorrow. It's bad enough trying to figure East Coast vs West Coast .. now we have that and the different AW surfaces to contend with.

really put off with the greatest day in racing being turned into the 2 so-so days.

as far as the 5th race tomorrow, Gotta wonder how far C.S. Silk is going to go. Will she set the race up for Stardom Bound. What about Pursuit of Glory?

He's a thousand to one, so there's no upside to knocking him, but what about him ( aside from Byk having a massive man-crush on the trainer ) makes him live?

I know you hate him BDW, but hes just a very honest horse. He will show up and run as hard as he can. He may not win but he will not run off the board, and youll get all he can give you
