Single the hell out of Strong Contender

as the mighty Steve Byk told us this past weekend at Gulfstream, "with Kieran, it's almost the longer they've been off the better they are coming back."

Take it to the bank. At 3/5, but still, take it.

I'd cover your value horses in the other races with Invasor and try to get back a little on the pick-X if you're wrong.

LOL!! Cover!!!!! Not covering here my friend, only cover when I am alive to the heavy chalk for big money and I spread out on the 20/1's to guarantee to a profit....

I am like Anikan Skywalker and Byk is like Obi Wan, except Anikan doesn't lose his legs in our story.....

Think about it from an owners perspective, all this race is meant for is to peak Invasor's interest again so I could show him off in my region in his next start. It just so happens to be a Grade 1 because they still get a decent paycheck to workout and run 3rd. Money is no object to them, but a free day of training for the owner (running 3rd almost equates to that amount, roughly) is better then just working in the morning
