Not sure how Calvin gets left in the showers with his record/reputation in big dirt route races at CD.

Because he is the most overrated jockey on the planet?

I hope you played this horse despite lacking Bo-rail.

Synopsis:
I hope horses like Blind Luck and HDG consider running in the Classic, because the older male division is not so hot. Heck, a euro could come over and would be better than have of these.

As of this point, it will be very disappointing if there aren't more than 14 entries for the BC Classic come Nov. 1st.

Someone from Ascot today is supposedly coming over. When they announced it, I didn't even think twice about it... I immediately thought anyone from the outside has a chance given the group we're looking at. And then the Clark runs, and wow.

Pool Play never ran on dirt before and wins the Foster.

I think Banned is my favorite horse in training. I hope he's able to get a Grade 1 soon.

Indeed. I corrected myself. :D

That's what I get for asking a legitimate question to a board full of cynics. :p

randallscott35 06-18-2011 07:15 PM

Regal Ransom last.

randallscott35 06-18-2011 07:16 PM

Full disclosure, didn't bet it...would have bet Giant Oak.

He might be the best turfer in the country.

Pool Play was a big price but far from impossible against this group. I bet MI, which pretty much guaranteed him running 2nd in a photo, but had PP in my busted P4 (didn't like the 1 in the 11th at all.) Never tried dirt but had run well at the distance on synth and had a reasonably good dirt pedigree and a potentially good pace setup.

Yeah the thing about Pool Play is simply why wouldn't he have tried dirt after all those years, it wasn't so much a belief that this was a heavy hitters Grade 1.
