Best Part about the International is if a European Horse wins we get to actually see him in BC Turf

Chincon and Redwood are already going to the BC Turf with Al Khali a possible with a big race


Champions Day at Newmarket is the 16th with the Emirates Champion Stakes as another Win and U are in for the BC Turf

Fatal Bullet is an interesting entrant. Connections seeing how he looks on the grass and maybe taking a shot at the BC Turf Sprint?
5f at Churchill might be right up his alley if he doesn't hate the weeds.

Can't wait. Really nice fields.

Woodbine always does a great job with this kinda stuff...

http://www.woodbineentertainment.com...l/Default.aspx

It's interesting that Soumillon is coming out for Reggane... I guess Mosse will be in Melbourne with Mr. Medici (?). Some great jockeys here.

No picks yet. My sentimental favorites (Balthazaar's Gift, Chinchon, Mores Wells and Fatal Bullet) will probably remain just that.

I'm thinking Woodbourne in the Neartic and a repeat for Lahaleeb but it's still early and havent begun to look at pps for the International.

Why would Woodbine make the 4th race of their 'Guaranteed P4' a $12.5k MDN CLM? Bizarre, amazing, ridiculous.. They have a 13 horse ALW as the 7th, before the stakes, which could either have been used as the nightcap or started the P4 so that ended with the International. I just don't get it. 3 races worth $3.5 million and then bottom level maidens that are a combined 0 for 109..

I concur, I was hoping they made a mistake. I guess not. Brutal way to finish a nice sequence.

Slow? He could compete for 3YOOY if he ran in America.

I think Grand Adventure is a lot of value at those odds.

Most likely winner of that race. Doubt he'll be 10-1.

I'm sorry but why exactly is Bridgetown the favorite?

Woodbourne all the way and playing a small tri with him, Balthazaar, Serious Attitude and Fatal Bullet.

Miss Keller, Gallic Star, Lahaleeb and Patchattack in a tri box.

Looking at Simmard...huge fan of a few here but I don't see any of them winning.

Possibly Fifty Proof...

Anyway Woodbourne is my big play of the day (so youve been warned cause i jinxed him).

Nice win.
