was just thinking the same thing 2hot....but if honey ryder can be the int'l fave, why not lava man?!
i told kev i'd pull for english channel, and feel he has a good shot here-sentimentally, i'd like to see lava man win it-but history tells us he won't show.....so why all the betting on him? hope over experience i guess.

admire moon is going to be tough.

My picks were Daiwa Major, Admire Moon, and Pompeii Ruler. I love the Lava Dude and have always thought the adulation of English Channel overdone. The truth is that US turf form has fallen off big-time since the days of Manila and Theatrical.

Should have boxed the exacta. Of course, I put my $2 place on the only one who didn't hit the board.

Actually, this exacta wouldn't have done me any good. Should have put my place bet on one of those two, instead of the one of the 3 I picked who didn't hit the board. (This is, by the way, a typical thing for me - narrow it down, then pick the only one that tanks.)
