Keenland opening day...

i think garret gomez will be leading rider.

That is some spot Tagg found for Funny Cide's return. It would be nice to at least occasionally see this poor horse in a spot where his best efforts would make him at least competitive. He's still a pretty good horse, even off last year, and making his debut in this spot is baffling to say the least. I'm sure they would have written a race for him in NY.

It's hard for me to blame Tagg for the foolish spots this horse continually races in, as he's just too good a trainer to be this consistently wrong, but whomever is to blame should be ashamed of themselves. How about a confidence booster?

Sorry, to change the topic here, briefly . . . I'll be brief, promise. Have you learned anymore, while you were away, whether or not your show will be available to non-wagering customers of YouBet, or as you indicated possibly at DRF?

[blackthroatedwind]

I'll find out Thursday.

Thank you.

Hopefully, many will be able to listen, an added benefit to DRFPlus would be nice.

And good luck with the show and the contest!

not to step on Andy's toes but when I looked at the DRF online this morning they have an advertisement for the show...says coming friday morning...so it would appear that it will be available to DRF plus members....at least that is how I read it.

I hope so Pais, he said he would find out on Thursday. It would be a shame to limit the show only to YouBet customers.

well by reading your post im thinking you think he cant win here, i think he can win if he likes the poly but this is a grade 3 type group and i agree with you very hard spot to return in, off funny cide, i just noticed that time squared is also running on the card, i like this ny bred alot and i think he has to break his maiden in this spot

Have you looked at the field the odds on Time Squared is running in or are you just picking the favorite off the cuff? Personally, I can't imagine why ANYBODY would take another short price on this horse, especially with the Polytrack variable thrown in, and surely there are more inviting places for one to invest their money.

I just called Youbet and will either have an answer for you later or tomorrow. I will find out DRF specifics tomorrow as well.

no no i dident mean it like that, i just like him and i mean i hope he breaks his maiden in this spot, not from a betting standpoint, i would never bet him at the price he will be, but you would have to say he's the one to beat, wouldnt you ?

[POINTGIVEN1985]

when i said i like this ny bred alot i meant i like him alot, not i like him alot to win, even though you'd have to think he will

[blackthroatedwind]

I'm not sold on Time Squared at all and he may be one of those money burner types. What excuse did he have in his second start? Didn't the post-DQ winner take a tour of the grandstand in midstretch?

yes he will get his wins, but i like Julian Leparoux and i think biancone will have a big meet so i guess that means Julian Leparoux will to.
