Shes All Eltish....very impressive first run on turf....5:1 is a great price..hopefully can control the pace and hold off the pletcher runner late

She looked good breaking mdn but facing winners first time is tall task and may have company on the chooch. I think #7 Irish Bride (10-1) rates a look.

These MLs at Gulfstream have been very poor. Wasn't Commentator like 8:5 the other day?

She's All Eltish is less likely to be 5:1 today than I am to do a 360 tomahawk dunk at the basketball court in the park today.

Irish Bride's last race was dreadful. I suggest you watch the replay.

Can't quibble with you there. I was on her that day. Considering betting her back today given she will catch a firm course vs the bog upon which she made her turf debut and may not have liked.

I don't think she'll be 5-1. Definitely looks like the one to beat. Freakstein could give her some trouble on the lead, however.

Castro kind of sucks. He pressed the pace too early in a turf race yesterday and gave Lezcano the win.

I know Lezcano riding at Tampa is completely different from riding at Gulf, but I have watched him for years and always felt he a very good sense of timing on the grass.

He's an underrated grass rider. He's having a solid meet so far.

Eddie Castro may get lucky occasionally and ride a good horse but he has clearly demonstrated he's a minor league rider.

maybe some of it could have been the hype surrounding Miesques Approval and his 2 wins at boxcar odds aboard him. Breeders Cup and SUnshine Millions..right?

I particularly enjoyed his PERSONAL battle with Sharp Susan: choke her down no matter what.

Totally agree. We don't see him in NY at BEL or STGA during the summer for good reason.
