English Channel 4-1 Lava Man 5-1
 

This is a nice race. I couldnt imagine Lava Man going down in odds.

I saw those...and Miesques Approval is 6-1. I just don't see him getting the :45-:46 and the 1:09-1:10 that he needs to run at.

I would say that is about right. I would def. put EC over Lava Man.

They are just awful estimated odds..really really awful..

EC 11-1 and Lava Man 7-1 here.. its such a competitive field and no horse deserves to be under 6-1 here!

In these types of races the morning line odds are seldom real good over here.
I largely ignore it.

I think English Channel should be 20-1 in this type of company. Whoever has the winner will most likely get at least 5 points higher on it due to the American pools likely favoring Lava Man and EC with dumb money.

Great race to find the winner.

Irridesence is the overlay of the day.

When just comparing those two EC is a gift at 11-1. Lava Man at 7-1 or less is horrible. But like above I think Irridesence is the bet

Why do you say that? To me she hasn't looked the same this year. The last was better but she was still behind two that are in this race, along with many others.

One horse I'm giving a good look at is Linngari. Think he might be getting strong at just the right time.

Always beware of Mike de Kock in Dubai and he has an up and comer named Kapil in here. Ran decent again Linngari and course specialist Seihali in his first off the 6 month layoff, then won for fun. A Southern Hemisphere 4yo, G1 placed in South Africa. And Pompeii Ruler is a genuine (that's a pun, look at his pedigree) G1 horse at 7-10f. Been knocking heads with the best in Australia - El Segundo, Aqua d'Amore, et. al. - and has never been better. Remember Elvis (Elvstroem) in this one a couple of yearts ago?
