After what i saw in the dandy today, he should go favored in the travers. I wouldnt imagine 10f would be a problem.

Was the whitney a lot faster then that race with mambo in it today? I just think its neat b/c at thsi time of the year you start to see some 3yr olds that werent ready forthe derby trail come into there own. Also a good chance at a score in the graded race that they do surface in. I get so much happiness when i bet on a horse and if it wins i know that i'll never get 8-1 or higher. LIke i found something that others overlooked. Bernardini in the Preakness comes to mind.

That was the worst. It is obvious with this crop that the winner will be different in every race that doesnt have big brown. And the spectacle will be an eyesoar.

Did you have the winner in either?

I only played the Jim Dandy but I had the Eoin Harty Horse. I really was surprised Macho Again won it. I really thought DA TARRA winning the Belmont was a joke and this horse wasn't even close to him in that race. DA Tarra proved his real ability today

I was waiting on Neil Howard to run him in the Jim Dandy, ever since his last race at CD.
Since they wrote the chicken shiat race, he decided to go there.
I have very little doubt that he would have won the Jim Dandy at a very square price.

Then Idiot me decided to crush the Mambo-pyro DD instead of playing the Mambo-Mott exacta I had originally intended to play.

Mambo: 104
Macho: 101

da tara got an uncontested, easy lead in the belmont. that didn't happen here, which cost him any chance. the horse that vied with him early finished next to last. a good example of pace making the race.
