Blackberry Road-anyone see him??
 
the first time i have ever cashed a tix on one of my horsewatch horses today at CD. I was really impressed w this one after 1st race didnt jump good from gate and didnt give up got 3rd. today blew by 1-2 fav and rider stiopped riding him at wire. I really like the look of this one for the future. My ? is if you have a really good looking 2yr old how hard do you lean on him at this point? I really like the breeding on this one and think he may be heard from down the road. what do you all think?

What's the breeding?

Isn't he the 1/2 to Vindication? I think Dogwood has him.

I tried to talk my uncle into buying a share of him but, he never listens.

vol jack are you serious?? Man that would be so exciting to have a part of a horse with breeding like that but im sure they wanted big money. He is half to vindication just liked the way the horse ran in first race and today just looked good coming out of turn 4.

I bet him both times. Really Really wish he would have got there the first time

I don't know why but I really like Strawberry Road anything

Yeah...

dogwood had him on their websites under offerings, they also had the a.p. indy colt that won Sun. for Pletcher on the turf @ belmont. "Big Wig".
I really liked the name "blackberry Road" since I live in blackberry country. The breeding didn't hurt either. The horse has a stallions pedigree.
I wasn't overjoyed that they gave him to D. Carroll, no offense, since they usually give the cream of the crop to T. Pletcher.
