Default Gomez & Castellano

Both going to have huge days on Travers Day. In fact I'll go out on a limb and say that the only 3 jockeys that will win a race at Saratoga on Saturday are Castellano, Gomez and Prado.

Okay maybe the lone race of the day that these 3 dont win is the 5th, where the Lukas & Bejarano horse Flashstorm will win by 10 and go off at 2/5. Thats the only exception.

Is Flashtorm a 2yo?

If so, sounds like Old Wayne might be solid for this year and maybe next...

Yes, he is a two year old. The horse has tons of potential. I was able to see the horse exercise and he is a nice looking baby. I think he could be just as good as Pegusus Wind next year.

Martin- Why would he suddenly win 4-5 races when he can barely win 1?
Call me for my play of the day.

Jockey are professional athletes. They travel for a living. Its the biggest day of the season at the premier meet in the country, believe me, Ramon Dominguez would ride a 3 legged donkey for a free trip to Saratoga on Travers Day. Where else would he rather be, Laurel? Doh!

He rides at Delaware...but that's OK. Doh!

Again, he'll win at least one, and your brave proclamation about the 3 jocks will be disproven in less than 24 hours.

Doh!

He will get Sweet Talker home but the other 2 stakes mount have no chance. I don't know what his allowance mounts are like as I don't have the form yet.
