Have you ever looked at the PPs for Richard's Kid's dirt races?

They're horrible.

I think Biondetti is trained by Mahmood Al Zarooni unless they switched him to bin Suroor, Steve.

He is. Has he been confirmed to the Juvy Turf with Dettori? I ask because I don't see his name on most lists and for some reason Watchmaker listed him as going in the Juvenile.

Looking forward to Champagne D'Oro. Hope she can run back, I think that last was a real prep they had no intentions of winning really.

I don't really like her, but I think you're right that you can toss the last on that surface.
