Sun King could just get home first this time, call me crazy but I have a good feeling about Premium Tap! Just a crazy hunch, that problably won't run a step LOL! Off to make selections, later all good luck!

I'm either going to be very happy or very sad going with WILD DESERT here...I think he can sit off the pace, he's done reasonabily well in the 'wet' and I have a feeling this is the one Dutrow wanted. (and every time I ignore a horse ridden by Prado who is on the 'cusp' of my selections, he burns me! lol)
A big Booo on Tagg if he scratches...Funny is 2-1-1 out of 5 starts in the Wet. Show us the Derby winner!

i don't understand why tagg is threatening to scratch if it's wet. as you said, fc has done well in the mud.
so, it's raining...need to adjust my pick 6 contest selections...and wild desert will be one i add, as is wanderin boy. no to premium and sun king.

Poor, poor Funny Cide ... once again victimized by the egomaniacal, glory-hungry Sack-o-kaka syndicate. This brave and game ... and once-talented ... gelding belongs ... as I pointed out nearly two years ago ... strictly in New York-bred stakes races ... or ungraded open stakes races at second-tier tracks. But ... I guess once you've had the national spotlight shone on you ... it's difficult to control your overwhelming desire to get back into it ... no matter how embarrassing it is for your horse. Ain't that right, boys?

Funny Cide is still a very nice horse. He had won two of his last three, one of which was a $180K grade 3 race. He belongs is grade 3's and grade 2's that don't come up tough. A weak grade 1 like today is still too much for him. The $250,000 Hawthorne Derby (Grade III) in a few weeks is likely his next race. He should have a great shot there.

just think all the wins he could have, all the good press, if he was just spotted correctly..they spot him right, he wins and rewards them, and they go nuts. think he's something he no longer is....it's a shame.
i have a lot of respect for the horse, not near as much for his trainer, and none for the owners. they remind me of the goose that laid the golden egg story, he ends up killing the goose to get what's inside that makes the gold....no more gold.

Thankfully you are not racing manager for Sackatoga. Even though they are pretty clueless at least they are running in races FC is eligible for. The Hawthorne Derby is for 3 year old Turf horses.
