I'm done. Red Rocks was one of the three I picked out on my first go through, but I didn't take him in the contest. Sigh.

Don't worry Ann, you're not the only one "done" - I think Pletcher may be feeling a little like that since he hasn't won today and all he has left is Flower Alley and Lawyer Ron (although I have a funny feeling about this horse - too bad he's not the 1 post )

Thanks for the kind words. I usually shoot myself in the foot in thses contests. I pay attention to the wrong things and overlook my own insights written in my notes. Like '2nd to Rail Link (Arc winner) G1 12f RH, two good LH races.'

I have always liked Ronny because he comes to run; can't understand his peculiar race last time, since he has rated in the past. He'd had a lot of really fast works, maybe he was feeling speed crazy? Needs a finesse rider, I think; does that describe PVal?

Red Rocks to me was a given. He's got a double RF to bluehens Fairy Bridge and Natalma and from the good family of Take a Stand. He's a very inbred horse but through all top individuals.

Well, I suppose for a jock from SoCal (speed city) he has some finesse... he is one of the best there but there are definately better jocks for finesse I believe... I do have a feeling LR will be in the money - especially the way today has been.
