I just dont like the race for him

I actually like Einstein in here. I don't think you should throw him out Scavs.

For whatever it's worth, here's a couple of paragraphs from Helen Pitts from the DRF:

"Trainer Helen Pitts said there were a couple of reasons she believes Einstein didn't run his best in the Woodford Reserve, a race in which he was seventh, though beaten only three lengths by winner Sky Conqueror.

"It was pretty soft turf, that was a big factor,'' Pitts said. "He had some pharyngitis, had some throat problems. Everything's cleared up and he's the kind of horse that likes to run frequently. He enjoys the game.''

The grass at CD on Derby day was extremely soft. I could forgive any horse's performance over that course....unless they end up getting another similar soggy turf this weekend.

I am re-thinking this...rethinking the whole day right now actually. Here are some reasons

1) No confidence
2) Friggin I am going to be REAL pissed if I play a large pick three and are alive at the Preakness and CQ beats me
3) Einstein is by far the fastest in this race, but I like Cosmonaut (should get a great trip if Prado doesn't get speed happy with him) and Silver Tree doesn't look half bad
4) no idea what I am doing

I NEED TO GET F'N PUMPED and hit a large ticket, stop this f'n around crap
