I liked Ketchican A LOT more than Circular Quay in the LA Derby---but, because of the styles of the two horses, I went with the tact of using CQ and not Ketchican---and making Al Stall my secondary trainer. However, I think it might have been a moot point, as Ketchican might not have been available. Anyway, it worked out for me.

In the 3-year-old contest, I had an excellent start---the only two horses I used last week were Scat Daddy and Notional---and I used Street Magician's trainer as my secondary trainer.

Hopefully I can win them both.
Thats great! Jambalaya did move me up to 17th. I know I am too far behind to win, but if I finish in the top 10, Ill be thrilled.

In the 3 yr old contest, I think I already made a mistake with my stable and have to decide to burn an "add" for a horse I want for this weekend. Its a challenge to be thinking about conserving the "adds" you can make until June 9th!
