The Mile is always my fav of the BC races. It is always exciting and the field is always stacked.

Not so this year, though.
Yeah, I have to agree with that. However, last year the Classic was dreadful.

I was pumped about the F&M turf earlier this year. But with Gorella, Alexandrova out it has lost some of its luster. It is going to be my second fav race of the day because of Ouija Board and Wait A While.

Call me a yuppy, but I'm looking forward to the Classic. If Bernie wins, I'll be on the bandwagon.

for me, i go by favorite horse rather than the race. Okay, last year it had to be Saint Liam, years before were SweetCatomine, Halfbridled, Vindication, Azeri, Sightseek, so on. This year, im routing for Henny Hughes, Wait a While, Asi Siempre, Cacique, Balletto, Bernardini(obviously), Lava Man, and Perfect Drift.

The Sprint, will it be speed, speed, speed, or will they take back and let a Thunderello happen...Never know what you are going to get...I agree with CR, it might be one of the hardest races to win of the year...The last time it was at CD, Caller One ran a sub .21 opening quarter, that was amazing and one of the best sprinters in a long time Kona Gold won, with Honest Lady running second...

From a gambling point of view, I'm looking forward to the Juvenile race most. But I think the Sprint is going to be a lot of fun to watch.

From a betting perspective, I like the Juvenile Filly race. From a fan of fine horses perspective, I like the Classic where my two favorites are running, Lava Man and Bernardini.

I couldn't agree more. Just what I would say.
