Gulfstream couldn't lure him away from Tampa!?

Why not an alw-opt claiming race for non-winners of two triple crown races at 9fs on dirt?

Nice race.

Really nice betting race.... Drosselmeyer will take the obvious share, but there are a few in here that make a lot of sense at what should be nice prices... Mad Flatter @ 6-1 will probably be 9-2 by post and given the current form of Schoolyard Dreams ought to have it all his own way on the front.

I thought for sure Waz would have entered DIO. He places him in every other race he can't win, why not here?

Not exactly going out on a limb, but Colizeo seems pretty well spotted here for his 1st start as a 4 yr old. Willie from the rail scares me a bit, however.

Kev - He's still running DIO over his head, it's just that now it's in optional claimers. Ran for his first tag last time (62.5K....lol) I used him thinking that The Waz had finally come to his senses and dropped him to where he could win... That won't happen again.

Did you ever consider that it's not the Waz calling the shots? Perhaps it's Mrs. Waz?

Definitely gotta use Seth but I agree completely - he's either going to get buried or use a ton to get clear by 6 lengths and burn out.... There is no middle ground with that guy...

Don't leave out the #4 !

Did Bigs ever show you DIO's debut race chart? Classic stuff.

Nice job.

Can't say the same for Drosselmeyer.

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Drosselmeyer would still smoke that bum Alydar.

Not Goncalves finest performance on Mad Flatter. He'll have a good look next time.

Why run for a measly $60k on the dirt when he can wait two weeks and get buried in a Grade III on his preferred surface?
