Good luck!
Steve

Good luck Steve. I’ve fallen in love with a longshot in the Black Eyed Susan. Miss Yearwood. She should get pace to run at and I think may be a very good horse. I guess we’ll see.

Great betting race.

I like a different longshot, Divine Huntress. Was 3-4 wide throughout last time on a day I think inside was much better than outside. Gigantic rider switch and I think if Prat lets her drop back behind the pace, could be dangerous late.

Bottom hoss only finished a length and a half behind the one hoss. I like top and bottom, but got to watch replays on the 4 and 7.

This is a really good betting race. Leaning on Beguine who seems to be sitting on a big one. This is race to take shot on a tri which looks to pay really nice.

Steve,
I'm also interested in Princess Kokachin in The Very One.
No turf experience but she looks like she may be able to run these gals off their feet.
She is fast and loves to win.
Recent turf work says they are serious.
Major question for me is that this Md bred usually comes up short vs Stakes foes, having only won a restricted Stake in November.

I’ll take a closer look at her. I don’t totally dislike the favorite but also don’t have interest in betting her. I think there are some improving fillies in this one and it’s worth taking a shot. Especially with a possible hot pace.
