He's my early pick for the Cigar Mile.
QR ran well Travis, better than I thought he would at 1 1/4, Summer Bird was good today, I'll have to look at the race again but I really expected him to blow the field away and would have done so had QR not had run so big. Onto the Classic and if he can win the race first and with some authority he may get a few HOY votes thrown his way, nonetheless it was a historical win today.

Interpatation, yeah like I used this horse. Not in a million years.

How the hell does TAP's coupled entries in the Beldame get bet down to 5-2?

What a brutal betting day, but props to Gander who hit Kodiak Kowboy at 9-2

I don't get. What happened to horses being spotted where they have a actual shot of winning?

$2 pick pays $14,649

Sorry Joe, I just didn't wanna be the only one catching sh*t

Not really. They sucked before they ran against her, they'll continue to suck afterwards.

Macho ran his race in the Woodward he isnt putting two big efforts like that together. Asiatic Boy is still in detox from leaving de Kock, Dry Martini is a grade 3 horse. Sette Mezzo would have won the Hirsch

Thanks NTamm. It was a really good day and Kodiak Kowboy was the one who got things rolling. Didnt have Interpretation or Pure Clan but had the late double a lot of times.

The irony in that is I have played this horse many times, in races where he would have paid more than he did today. Oh well. It would have stung a lot more had that 1 horse not won the last race.

I was dreaming for a few hours and looked at the Wildenstein, Wertheimer, and Khan stock... The US has like 100 potential horses each year for sale to their 1000 produced in strong hands.

I was alive on a 7 dollar ticket singled to Asiatic Boy for 21k. Kodiak, Clan, all, AB.....Needless to say what could've been. At least I didn't have to worry about a stretch drive.

Interpatation had only been defeated in 17 races in a row .. and was just 1 for his last 28 ... with that lone win over that span coming at Philly Park.

The only possible thing to not dislike about him would have been the fact that he was a huge price in a race where the weather was chaotic and the ground was extremely soft.
