I kinda like Madeo here, even though Smith is up...:D

Madeo / Sky Cape

Madeo made me look bad, and now he wakes up. In n' outer (like some of this barn's others are.) That effort in the Swaps was puke. I thought they were gunna have to go back to 7f. Pretty weird one here.

Congrats Miss Storm Cat
 

Nice call. Mike Smith is usually enough to scare me away but you got the win...

PSH

:D

Thanks. :)

Good call!
I went with Sky Cape who fizzled.

why sky cape, who barely beat madeo with a perfect trip last time while Madeo had a horrid trip, and he and was half the price today of Madeo?

funny, the ride was the difference between winning and getting beat by an odds on favorite.

Sky Cape came up as a play on my turf model which has about a 70% roi this year, so I played him at what looked like 10-12 to 1 at around 3 minutes to post. what a shock when it dropped to 5:1 as the race went off. big late odds move on that guy.

It didnt get its own mention but that was a nice race by Stardom Bound and that trash rider of hers.
