I'm going to be strongly against Sharp Azteca as the chalk. Tons of other speed. Real California speed in Americanize. Summer Revolution has speed and I gotta think the plan is to send Seymourdini off of his odd last.
I like Tom's Ready and for the 1st time this year Practical Joke.

Always been a Tom's Ready fan as I think he's a poor man's Caleb's Posse, but I think this is Practical Joke's time...easily.

I don't see you why you would bet Tom's Ready vs. Beasley when Beasley will be twice the price. Didn't he run at least as well in the last race? Both could win for sure I think I want the later if I am going to take a closer.
Practical Joke who I bet particularly every race is best, I just don't want a short priced horse in this field.

I don't trust Beasley at all. Good luck though he will be 25-1.

Do you really think Toms Ready ran MUCH better than Beasley? I believe he ran at least as well. What's not to trust? Comes back from layoff with minor injury wins at 6f against a salty group of older completely against the track, Comes back again and wins well, than tries G3 and runs well again.. What's not to trust? perhaps he isn't good enough that's entirely possible but how is Tom's Ready who I bet at SPA 2 back SO much better? Certainly NOT off the last race.

Practical Joke is the right horse but IF you like Tom you have to like Beasley WAY more IMO

Damn, dont shoot me but I actaully agree with Freddy here. More upside with Beasley and we know Tom's Ready is not really a grade 1 horse at this point, I Beasley arguably ran better numbers in his last race (i will have to watch the race)

If I get the 6-1 on Seymourdini that will be my play. I think he sits just behind the early pace and will get first run.

All over this horse with you TK. Interested in the 7 horse here also. Pace could get hot and that horse is improving and will be a big number.

How can the 7 even run 5th?

like I said pace could get really going here and improving horse could pass tired horses. Doubt he can win but interesting exacta/tri play. I've bet worse 20-1 shots

I think Practical Joke gets the ideal setup but since Andy is going to hammer him to 2/1 I probably will make a small play around Beasley who will also get a good setup and will be at least 5x the odds.
