Race 8: #7 Half Moon Street M/L 15/1

With the rail out 18 ft, speed should have an advantage and this one has been sprinting against the likes of Megapixel and Tincupchallace (sp?) who are monsters compared to these.

The trainer shows positive ROI off layoffs, dirt to turf, and turf starts.

He was alot closer in last race until Hill knew he didn't have a chance and let the horse gallop home.

If the horse is turf meant I think she's got a chance to wire the field.

I think the 2 Alexandros has a better shot of wiring the field, just my opinion. Looks like a race that a bomb will come in, possibly even Chasing the Crown.

Yea, but after seeing the 6th, speed does not appear to be holding as the 4 & 6 had every chance with slow fractions.

Still may but a little bit on her.

Actually, given the way speed absolutely didn't hold on yesterday's turf (as expected), and the fact that they went 1-2 until very late in the 6th, it doesn't seem that speed is at a pronounced disadvantage today. The courses are clearly in a state of transition.

I am not sure if this horse is bred for turf. Looks like the the trainer is going for the Turf to Dirt angle next out. I am going to put this one on the watch list for next time. I will sit out on this one this time.

Well, you were right about the 2 and the 7 had nothing, absoluetly nothing...oh well

If this horse had a chance then he should have taken him to the lead but winner was way too good

Alexandros is completely useless. What a waste of horse flesh.

Nice contrast in riding styles on horses that won for fun:

Dominguez never touches Stepaside while

Coa beats up Summer Patriot --- hit him again
