Default Honu-Boboman

How is he looking? Does he like Hollywood Park's surface?

(Not that I won't be rooting for Drifty. You have to understand my love for him.)

I was just looking at the PPs of Boboman and wondering if he likes the surface will he be a factor?

He likes the surface , the jerk took off with me in a work out and went 58 and change when i was supposed to go 101 LOL. Only one thing he seems to have gotten in a habit of sucking himself back out of the race ( thus blinkers on) , now in the mornings all i have to do is just flag him with the whip and he goes, but i dont know if that will work in the afternoon. I galloped him this morning and he felt smooth as silk and was bucking the whole way around so it will all be up to him now, he looks really healthy , dapples and a shiny coat now I just hope he doesnt drop so far back , I told him not to do that but he told me to STFU LOL.

I like Boboman tomorrow. I think he has a big shot to take it.

You got to like Boboman today. We all know this horse is working well on cushion track, has the class and will get 1 1/8.

Kip Deville is most likely on the down side of his form cycle and the way he has worked are suspect too.


Buzz Bay is the other part of my exacta.

The only issue is that Buzzard looks to be lone speed, alot of closers in the race.....

Sheet wise, Boboman is in a great spot

Ron Ellis has been sending live horses to the races for a good month now.

Alex Solis has also come to life since his agent took Mig's book along with his.

The local clockers dont like Kip and AP Xcellents recent works.

We know that BB can run it on the front end and that was how Ron got him to come back to life after he got him fit.

Good Luck in with your pick.

Buzards Bay doesn't want the lead today , but he will be near the front. He could have the lead at the top of the stretch. The question is who will kick late and how much...
