In the 3rd, I have been betting (and losing) on Toppers Smiling the last 3 races. Watch them..Baze stops riding in the lane, so either they are setting this one up for a win at a price or she has some "issues" and they dont want to press it. I tend to think this one shows up big tomorrow night since Baze stays. Also have to use Excessive Tale due to T/J combo. Although a lot of speed, so it could fall apart up front. Have not figured who could come late and pick up the pieces.
The 4th...I'm on 4,5,6 and maybe the 3.
Still looking, but good luck

The 3rd race stinks.. but what do you think about Excessive Tales long vacation. Monteleone is a decent off the claim but something had to go wrong to take a 3 month break between works. Is 5 1/2 too short? Could this be a tightener for a longer race next out?
Topper's Smiling has had two races and might be setup for a better race this time as this field is weaker than either of the two he ran against over at Santa Anita.
