Phenomenal fields. 5-1 on Lucky Page in the St. Leger looks a steal. Aussie Brenton Avdulla is in to ride the new Oz Syndicate runner in the Secretariat. Beverly D wide, wide open. Big field of 13 in the Million. Really looking forward to it.

Euros look more powerful then usual to me. I think they sweep the 3 G1.

I think the overseas contingent in the Million looks pretty poor compared to years past actually.

They are obviously weakest in the Million, but there is strength in numbers. 5 Euro's vs no great American turf horses. I'll take one of the Euro's.

I suggest taking a look at the Euros during the post parade because the projected high is 93 on Saturday. Great stakes card as usual. PK5 should draw plenty of interest.

High humidity levels won't help either.......supposed to be 60+..........been brutal here in MSP the last couple days.

chance of rain today, but it's been mid 70's and the breeze here all week has been much welcomed
Euros look the strongest in the Secretariat
trying to make a case to toss stephanie's kitten and slumber....

Gus is the Pizza Man going to give the million a go?

-bt-

He had a terrible trip last out.

I noticed that as well, I think he will run better than Big Blue Kitten, but not sure if that will be good enough.

Yes..he is
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/2...rts/150819601/

i read the line, he's logical 2nd choice....trying to make a case for up with the birds and legendary.....who i'm not sure why is entered, which has be both intrigued and confused.

-bt-

FAHK!! (thanks bob)

the horse is steadily regressing, but there's NO chance i leave him off the ticket, as if Saturday wasn't already expensive.

-bt-

Euros dancing as about to get smoked with a summer storm, coming from the north, but it hasnt really rained in probably 6 weeks so could be a perfect course tomorrow

hyper is going to run big,,got a total wank ride last out

I like Slumber

Good Choice

last horse i tossed in my 2x3x5x5 sequence.... only cost me $1500 not using him and $630 getting beat by him...... i love this game!!!!!!!!
