hooves, think Honey Ryder may be vulnarable today. Interesting that JV takes Safari Queen over HR. I find two interesting in here. The 4 Hostess seems to have made a nice improvement between 3 and 4 and is third off the layoff after a nice effort so there is room to improve. The 6 Factual contender seems to be a much better horse since being given to Tagg. I note that the forecast has T-Storms which are supposed to come in around 4which may make the turf wet. What do you think of these?

the 6 is a scr..like the 4 abit if honey is right he could roll..but i like the 1../4 for value..

Agree Honey can roll, just find it intersting that JV does not take. Did not know the 6 scratched, thanks for the info. Wish the 4 had a better jockey than Hill, I would like her even more, but might toss her in a pick 4 for value.

I know the owners of Honey Rider. They prefer Gomez. Their choice not JV's.

Good to know if that is the case. From the program it looks like JV had his choice. Do they think she is ready to roll?

Hostess ran extremely well today and if she continues to improve she will be very competitive going long with these types this year. What Channing Hill was thinking during the stretch, assuming he was actually thinking, I have no idea.

Agree, BTW, Hill was the biggest problem I had with her today. He is terrible.
