Does anyone think Flashing or Malibu Prayer can beat RA? I mean anything can happen...and their speed figures aren't that far off from RA

Which speed figures are you using because no one in this race is even close to her?

I also thought the Nassau County was one of the ugliest races I've ever seen and I think it'll be an accomplishment if Flashing finishes 3rd.

Bris...I was reading the free PPs. Flashing has a 102 in one of her optional claiming races. I don't know how she looks in the DRF.

Don't waste your time w/ Bris figs

Top Beyer for each horse -

Hopeful Image - 81
Don't Forget Gil - 90
Rachel Alexandra - 108
Malibu Prayer - 86
Flashing - 92

Forgive me, I don't generally obsess about number derivation past a point, but are these just highest overall and not highest one turn Beyer or BSF for the same distance as the Mother Goose? The MGS is one turn correct? Does it matter to consider distance or number of turns when looking at past Beyers?

These are just the highest overall - which all happen to be routes (Hopeful Image's 81 was on turf, so I guess I should've given her highest dirt fig, which was a 77 in the mud. They should have set her odds at 100-1). I don't think any horse in the race has ever run a 1 turn 9F race before, and personally I think in most cases the 1 turn vs. 2 turn thing is made to be a bigger deal than it really is. I do know that Beyer formulas often differ between 1 and 2 turn races depending on the day.

Hey does anyone like Don't Forget Gil for 2nd? RA could end up cooking Flashing and Malibu Prayer on the front end, setting it up for DFG.

3 horse field for the mother goose and 5 horse field in the Vanity. Absolute joke. A day with two of the best filly and mare running yet they are not running against each other. One owner is scared of synthetics and the other is scared to go out of cali. Thanks guys for supporting the fans

Why would either of them ship across the country to run against each other for the same purse money?

Pocket change for both Moss and Jackson. It should not be about purse winnings for them but apparently it is.
