I like him a lot (Street LIfe too) and would be thrilled if you were right but as far as this race I think I'm using The Lumber Guy in the top spot for an upset (and due to possible insanity. Who knows).

(Or maybe it's homage to Pavo who I would have bet my life on in the Bellamy Road Wood).


edit - I thought this was kinda fun...

Fun facts about the kids in the Wood.

I use BRIS pp's but I am interested to know what the Beyer fig was for the BroadBrush Stks at Aqu on Mar 17.
I have that race as being pretty slow, but BRIS has it rated much faster than me. Curious to see where Beyer has it rated.
At this point I can't use this colt, even if he is a very strong late runner.
Just looks too slow, esp if my number is more accurate than BRIS'.

Disregard previous post.
I had mistakenly recorded the race as being way slower than it actually was, thus the low fig.

All better now

The pace was so slow in that race, does it matter what the final speed figure was?

It matters if a horse (Street Life) came rolling home behind that slow pace, making up 5.5 lengths in the stretch and earning a decent fig while passing almost the whole field.
That field held a tactical advantage over Street Life by virtue of being in front through very slow splits, but he ran over them anyway.

Anyone have the stats for Zito first time off a throat surgery?



In all seriousness, it would be nice if information on procedures like throat surgery, etc. was made available outside of horses on the Triple Crown trail.
