Theverythoughtof U was blocked the entire way!!! Go back to high school Talamo!!

I would plan on a monster carryover tomorrow folks, about 350k I guesstimate

I wouldn't mind being at HOL tonight. Big Head Todd and the Monsters!

She would've lost if I bet her. That's how jinxed I am.

Not sure we're there yet. Probably need one more non-favorite in the last two.

was getting $1034 for a $9 investment :(

Alright people. History repeats itself. Talamo is in a funk, lay off him. I know the #1 is off a big lay-off, but Stute is 25% at that and the works are sharp. What is Gomez doing on a horse that has been at New Mexico and Arizona? Ron Ellis is hot and the 8 looks the best. 1-2-8 ex and tri box.

I think the 2 could win if the 8 doesn't fire. Also the 4 could make the exotics interesting.

Big layoff horse in the finale also. Gonna toss him and play a $10 DD

1 / 4,5,7

Because tonight is whacky

1/5,6,7/5,6,7,8 Tri

1/8 late DD

Edit: 3 was scratched, put the 5 instead

Shows they are TRYING to save me money :)

Pillow, we must have pissed Victor off, TWO IN A ROW!!

Baze had the favorite too close to the pace. Just a horrible jockey colony at Hollywood.

Ellis should have won the A Gleam tonight with Theverythoughtof U if it wasn't for Talamo's terrible ride.

They all think sitting 3w on a 44.6 clip is a good thing...

Right, as soon as you curse these guys they burn you.

I just think the guy competes when he wants to. He's burned me plenty with uninspired rides this meet.

Good Luck in the finale guys, 1:55 A.M. here in the east, sleep time :o

Just what we need, another feel good guy....Like Nakatini. I swear, when he is feeling good, best jock out there, but when his feeling are down, no effort

To add another post from me on this thread

I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THIS P6 IS PAYING TO EVERYONE BUT THE BOMBS. I think I have 1 winner of the sequence. Shocking, I thought for sure this was going to carry

I think we can all agree on one thing tonight, that Talamo has discovered a hot chick in L.A. this is screwing with his head. At least we have that going into tomorrow. Be sure to check out the 2 yr old Stakes at Churchill tomorrow, Asmussen has like 3 entries and Pletcher has 1. Good-night all.

I know it's Steve Knapp but the betting public is crazy to let Milady's Pride go off at such high odds in this crap field.

Alright the only reason I'm still up is because the Marlins can't close the door on the freaking Dodgers!

Yeah that was a Steve Knapp performance. Just horrible. I don't know why this guy has a license.

I don't know if I trust Talamo on Nashoba's Key tommorow anymore.

But here is a classic example of why I don't totally blast the riders for what trouble happens during these races.
Some years back, on FOX, the Whitney at Saratoga was covered and Ron Ellis was one of the analysts. As soon as the race was over he wasted zero time raggin' on Jorge Chavez for moving 5 wide on the turn in a race Behrens lost narrowly to Victory Gallop ( correct me if I have the race and either runner's name wrong, this had to be more than 7 years ago now ).
Chavez's only other option was to try to find room between or inside a bunch of longshots everyone knew were going to stop running way before midstretch. One of the other analysts instantly corrected him.
I bring this up because I've noticed on more than one occassion, recently on TVG, the paddock microphone has picked up Ellis giving instructions to his riders.
The common theme among every one of the sessions is Ellis has a huge problem with the idea of being any further than 2 wide on the turns. And a lot of those times he has horses with no post on the inner half of the field and come from no closer than mid pack.
Sometimes, that's just not realistic. A rider with far more years in the game might just go ahead and let the horse do their best running, if he thinks the trainers instructions won't work. Talamo probably won't try that yet, working for a client who has helped him succeed first season on a new circuit.
I think if she was 3-4 wide thru out, I had a better shot of cashing my win ticket. So I was biting my bottom lip thruout that final 1/2 mile too.
The warning is out: know this everytime we bet on an Ellis trainee.

We'll get'em again :D

Frankel is another that hates when his riders go wide.

seems like he was able to handle the pressure. won not only on NK but also on Bilo. Two GR1's ont he same card.
the kid is good.

Real good, and Bilo really had no business winning

Frogman strikes again

Just read in todays DRF (hard copy) that Bianconne was fined $1500 for not notifying the stewards that Lady of Venice was racing with Lasix.

-bt-

I wonder if Lasix masks cobra venom :rolleyes:

i'm starting to really dislike all the shenanigans with this guy.
