I wonder what's the likelihood of Pictural and Unbridled Danger starting?

Good to see I want Revenge back!!

[hockey2315]

I guess no Hold Me Back. . . good move by Mott. Belmont's card is pretty terrible as a whole, but I'm excited to see IWR.

Whoa!

Is Pictural a rabbit? Never heard of the horse.

Even the rabbits today suck. I remember when rabbits used to have speed...

[slotdirt]

He broke his maiden paying like $29 last year on Pacific Classic day. That's all I got.

[slotdirt]

Check that - two years ago, Pac Classic day.

[Cannon Shell]

Just got crop dusted at CD in a 50k claimer, 6th by 12. He doesn't have much speed. I guess the Suburban is a logical spot. Really NYRA should just put this race out of its misery by either canceling it or changing the name to the Bullsbay or something like that

I Want Revenge gets help in Suburban

The defection of four horses in a 48-hour span left the racing office scrambling to fill Saturday's $300,000 Suburban Handicap at Belmont Park. In the end, the Grade 2 race went with a field of seven, led by returning graded stakes winners I Want Revenge and Regal Ransom.

I Want Revenge, who has not run since winning the Grade 1 Wood Memorial in April 2009, will have a little help in the race as his connections, the IEAH Stables and trainer Richard Dutrow Jr., also entered Pictural as a rabbit to make sure Regal Ransom doesn't get loose on the front end. I Want Revenge and Pictural will run as a coupled entry.

"We're looking to put him on the lead," Dutrow said of Pictural, who drew post 4, one slot outside I Want Revenge.

Goes tomorrow in the G3 Dominion Day at Woodbine

[hockey2315]

Ya I know - that's a better spot for him.

Yes. They used him as a rabbit for Court Vision in the Maker's Mark as well.

Excited to see what exactly? Look back at what he beat in those 2 Aqueduct romps, has anyone come back to be much of anything? He might be ok, but with the injury and layoff, I want no part of him.

[hockey2315]

He was extremely good in his two NY races. The competition he faced, in this particular case, means very little to me. I'm not saying I'll be betting him in this spot, but he could prove an exciting wild card for the rest of the year.

Agree to disagree.... I don't think he is much, I see RR or Convocation winning this. IWR will struggle, IMO.

You don't think he's much based on his race record or are you banking on his injury/layoff compromising his chances?

No chance I would bet this horse at his 7/5 ML off the injury/layoff. I think that's what Joe's saying as well.

Given the amount of speed in here, I like Convocation- but if Eldaafer drifts up to 15-1 or so I'll throw a little bit that way as well.
