This card is the best of the year for my money. It's a pleasure to handicap

Here was this morning's conversation with the preschooler (true story):

"Why does Daddy have to go to work today?"
"Because he needs to earn money for us."
"So I can bet on my number 3?"
(pause)
"Yes. Yes, he earns money so you can gamble. Eat your AlphaBits."

We'll be going to Belmont on Saturday. I would send the pins to Sighty, but I think the kid is going to lay claim to them.

I kind of think the same thing. Travers Day was nice but not as good as this and the way the turf was playing up there was a disappointment.

This sounds like my life. He can only watch a very little bit of TV...so when he wants to watch he says, Watch Horsey Race to tempt me....very sharp.

King Kressa has a huge shot today and hopefully will be as overlooked at the windows as he is on the ML

Seems like everybody and their mothers are on Slumber today.

How often does that work out though? We shall see later.

In line to get in, listening to and elderly Manhattanite recount every racing tragedy of the last 40 years. SAVE ME.

Nice job by Lezcano to let Graydar go in 47....not like he had a speed advantage or anything.

It's a good thing Pletcher was nice enough to not enter any horses in the turf stakes so someone else has a shot of winning a stakes race today.

You should drop Lezcano a line and straighten him out.

Oh yeah, you should give some tips before the races are run.

I dont have too, if he is on twitter everyone told him before, and they certainly are after the race.

Only you could think that horse did not need the lead to win.

I see, you are not only an incredible hypocrite, but much dumber than even I thought.
