that race is going to be a LOT harder to dissect. 11 horses, a couple coming off long layoffs or recent long layoffs. At first glance Bold Start seems to be the class, but is making his first start as a 4 y.o. and first start against older horses, could be McPeek has bigger plans for him down the road. Love his workout pattern. Bribon looks to have run some nice races and is in good current form, see if he can transfer that to GP surface having never run in Florida. I also think that Winnie's Tigger Too, who should be a long price, has run some deceptively good races against decent horses at CRC.

If someone has access to free PP's, can they post them for the 'Race of the Week" to fascilitate more discussion and analysis. This way people who might not be playing that particular card would have reference material to follow along.

ive got the top 4 as

st damon who on his best day can run with these .off the lay off he looks ready to fire..very good work patern

mr mastre had a good tune up for this and his best running has been done on the dirt

city dweller won the lost code then faded ..layed off for clemont and though shy on figs may improve

bribon the one to beat..top selection ..current form very good and his running lines are tough..that second to diamond isle is a good indicator he can press then clear..

Right, and I'm going to pass on even looking hard at this one. One of my goals when capping is to minimize the amount of inside info that I am up against. When you have possibly good horses coming off year-long layoffs, you are really up against it, IMO.

I'll wait for the next DT Race of the Week.

A return to Bushmill's Best last wins this one IMO. Retains Elvis who gave a good ride last out. Ziadie barn can never be overlooked. Elvis should have this one forwardly placed. I see it as having to hold off St. Daimon, on the cutback with a POSITIVE jock switch with Lezcano up after the 1 year layoff. St. Daimon's worktab says he's ready to fire one, possibly on/near the front. Maybe the time off gave him some fresh legs for the cutback try.

was closing out a nice P3 and was moving forward in P4 if Winnie goes by @35:1..looked like a winner at the top of the stretch.

chop chop gets his quota for the week at my expense.
