I guess you really don't sleep. It is really nice for all of us but you should probably sleep at least once and a while. Enjoy the day. Thanks again.

I know Lord Justice is a big hype horse, but I think he's up against it in this spot. He's breaking from the rail and his pedigree suggests he wants to go farther anyway. I think he puts in a good showing but another speedster will steal the race. I'm playing against him (never thought I'd say that about a horse that's 8-1 on the morning line!!!!)

Good luck.

Goodluck all, I had to make one single today on my pick 4, hopefully it was the right one. I'll sink or swim with Harlem Rocker in The Travers, truth is this Travers is not as strong as in previous years. So perhaps a proven miler can win it.

[-BT-]

small stab at the early PK4 it's wide open
