Interesting listening to Jon discuss his thinking for the lines. I could see Game Winner floating up a bit in price. Who is going to bet him at 6-1 at this point?

I probably would. I still think he’s the best 3 year old and neither of his starts this year have discouraged that thought. I think Baffert had a plan to have him peak for the Derby and even though Roadster beat him in the SA Derby, he was 4 wide for a long time and made first move, while Roadster drafted and made the last move. He’s won over the Churchill surface and while I hope you’re right that he drifts up in price, 6-1 seems fair.

Agreed. I'm on him at 6-1, so i'm definitely on him at anything higher.

I like Game Winner and think he is the most likely of the horses to hit the board. But to win? As consistent as he’s been, he hasn’t taken that next step...yet. I also suspect the California horses are a little overrated this year.

Plus, we saw his odds rise to 7-1 in Pool 4, and that was before Omaha Beach won the Arkansas Derby. So I think we see his odds end up above 6-1.

Agree, and I also would.

It figures. He is colder than Cold Rain and Snow. 9/26/91 Boston Garden. The soundboard video on YouTube tells the story the best since you can hear the beautiful long intro in its entirety. The crowd noise after the rippin Jack Straw drowns it out on the audience tapes. Jerry playing Rosebud so intricately is so nice to watch. My favorite show from 91

Can Prat file an objection from the jocks room OR is Maryland gonna let this race be run like big races are usually run?

No Prat or Court-so who is the favorite to cry about getting touched by another horse?

I know if I was one of those trainers with a TBA next to my name, I'd be giving him a call. I'm not sure there's a better jock in the country.
