those are all sound logical points......but when it comes to my dislike of that horse (i have decided not to use his name anymore)........logic plays no role.

you can count on it on sat....when dini does invasor ugly..why the hate..hes a fine horse..and the only reason in capable sior didnt run in jcgc is he would have been spanked there instead of here..oh my arm.....its a no brainer that if your going to lose to the best you would prolong it till you get the max for your try..2nd or third pays more here.....thats it..

what? if that was the reason wouldn't it pay even more to finish second in the jcgc and the bcc? what advantage are you suggesting invasor gained by not running in the jcgc?

As far as C.Q. goes,lets just hope he gets a post like he did in his other races at Churchill.You see,it could have been the surface.It could have been the distance(really the pace of 23'1 that he may not of been thrilled with.) You have to also consider that his rider has routinely blown rides on raters from the inside post positions.He repeats the same mistakes.He gets trapped down inside(and behind)horses,and has to wait for others to do what they may.It is his one major weakness.Same with Happy Ticket's expert ride on that rail.

ON THE RAIL AGAIN.......

JUST CAN'T GET OFF THIS DAMN RAIL AGAIN........

LOCKED IN, AND IT COULDN'T BE MY OWN DAMN FAULT....

CUZ I DON'T WANT TO BE ON THIS DAMN RAIL AGAIN.......

Lava Man has been in Kentucky for 3 weeks. Connections learned, one would think, from previous mistakes. Way overlooked horse come Saturday. Real runner, will bust out and Dini will have to catch and get lead. I doubt Innnn vvvaaaaa soooorrrrrrrr hits the board. Way I see it, it's Dini or Lava first, the loser of that match finishes 3rd or worse, used up on that loonnnnggggg stretch run to the wire. Sun King, who knows.

The thing is though if I play against Bernardini I don't want to just play Invasor. It would be pretty darn frustrating to pick against him and be right but not have the right horse and miss on some huge payout. I'm considering passing on the Pick Six and just playing all the Pick 3s. That way I can kind of alternate races I go deep so I don't miss out on a bomb I liked just cause I picked that race as my single. In the ones including the Classic I will either play Bernardini and Invasor and go deep in the other two races or go with Invasor, Sun King, David Junior, and one or two others and go short in the other two races.

Default I agree Miraja.....

At this point, I may play some singles, and even as much as I love Bernardini in the Classic, feeling comfortable about no singles. I feel like we're going to see a bunch of wide open races. I do want to see tomorrow's draw, see where the speed is slotted. I wish everyone who are playing singles good luck.

yup, post position draw is key in a couple of the races. outside is a toss in a couple.

Ouija Board is the best single, IMO. Wait A While is really the only one that scares me unless OB doesn't show, and she's showed almost everytime against the best turf horses around the world in open company. Besides, I really don't think that field is very strong top to bottom.

yeah i get that.....but i still don't get why finishing second in the jcgc would somehow prevent him from finishing second in the bcc.
that is completely illogical.....get it?
