One of my favorite days of the year. Never been to the Travers as I'm not into crowds but I've been to many a Bama day.

Optimizer?
Did I hear some talk that Optimizer might not be going in the Sword Dancer this Saturday?

Thanks Danzig!
The old memory needs to be defragged... |
It's never totally safe to say it, but surely the Alabama is close to a one-horse race.

Tell A Great Story is scratched from the Alabama. She broke out in hives this morning.
|
I little surprised the field is not deeper for the Alabama, no one else in the Country has a 3yo filly program really competing with that race.
|
I'm watching the toteboard for the Alabama, and with 14 MTP, someone just popped about $35K on Galloping Giraffe to show.

It was cute watching Mary Lou and the woman who got to place the 15K wager. :tro:

GG was clearly ridden to suck up for 3rd, but she just isn't much horse. |
