Good Luck to all those playing the Del Mar Contest.
I'm a fan of Cry and Catch Me too, although I may watch her here. I'm gonna take a shot with Look Deep, should get a nice price. Good Luck with Down, that one should run a nice one as well.:)

50WP on Stately Appeal..... since my original pick scratched. Proud Garrison was the other I considered... so the way this contest's going for me, you should hit with it.

I did notice Bejarano jumps off the 2 Perfect Cast, and ends up on Stately Appeal, so you may be on to something. I didn't like any of them enough to be honest, at not enough to put the whole $100 there. Only a race away, we'll find out soon.

I put the whole $100 on Genuwine Magic, not going to be much of a price, hope he runs well. Good Luck with your selection as well.

Well, I feel better now knowing you picked the same horse... Course it's not too late for you to change your mind seeing as how I picked it too :p

I think you're probably both golden... that was the other I was looking at.

Del Mar Contest Pick 8/6.........
 
This race is loaded with 2 year old talented fillies, many ways to look in here. I'm going with the #6 Stardom Bound, who with a better break would not be coming in to this race still a maiden. She was much the best in her debut, when losing by a nose.
Good Luck All!

swedejxn 08-07-2008 12:48 PM
Toss up Kalookan year and afleets desire... as far as I am behind.... gotta take the shot....

mclem0822 08-07-2008 04:46 PM
Taking a shot.....
 
On She Bangs 8-1 on the morning line, I could use every bit of that, or it's back in the hole!:eek:

Del Mar Contest Pick 8/9........
 
#9 Stettler

jwkniska 08-10-2008 12:38 PM
Coronet of a Baron for me today.

cowgirlintexas 08-10-2008 12:42 PM
For me it is Captain Steel to win and S.S. Stone to place. :)

Never mind.. Captain just scratched :confused:

cowgirlintexas 08-10-2008 12:47 PM
I to will go with Baron to win, Stone in 2nd and perhaps a few $$ on Charlie to place..

mclem0822 08-10-2008 01:27 PM
Del Mar Contest Pick 8/10......
 
S.S Stone closed so well up the rail no less, very impressive. Bejarano I'm sure had a choice to stay on S.S. Stone, but he lands on the #9 Azul Leon.
$100w #9 Azul Leon. I may eat chalk, wouldn't be suprised to get beat either. Tough race.
Good Luck All!

mclem0822 08-10-2008 07:55 PM
Wild race.....
 
I'll take the DQ win with Azul Leon, but I think the #10 Kelly Leak got shafted outta the win. If you guys saw the race let me know your thoughts?

I saw it online with all the replays... kinda surprised that 2 horses didn't come down. 4 horses in a line... outside came in, inside came out.... 2 in the middle were screwed and of course my pick today for 3 contests was in the middle.
