Pletcher runs 1-2-3 in here, just spin the dial or guess on which one finishes where. Its that wide open between his 3 fillies.

summerly, classy charm are scratches. apparently todd is going for the tri now--might as well!

bhorse article said pletcher was waiting to see how the race shaped up to decide which of the three would sit...change of plans apparently.

I liked Oonagh a lot more before Summerly and Classy Charm scratched. Not sure if Pool Land will push Take D'Tour or not but 2 of the 4 expected pace are now gone. I'm liking Take D'Tour a lot more and Balletto a lot less now.

1. Oonagh Maccool
2. Take D'Tour
3. Spun Sugar

1. Oonagh Maccool

3. Spun Sugar

I agree a lot with this assessment. I think Oonagh Mccool is still the best in this race... I'm hoping Pool Land pushes Take D'Tour up front... if not it could be a problem for the rest of the field. If that pace scenario takes place, the only horse OM has the worry about is Spun Sugar in my opinion....

Zippy, I'm banking on the idea (who knows if its good or not) that Pletcher entered Pool Land as more or less a rabbit to help out Spun Sugar and Oonagh. Did he? Who knows and thats the problem. If she is only entered for her speed, she is a very classy rabbit and much more talented than the allowance horses that we usually see as rabbits. If thats the case then Oonagh has no problem here - like sumitas said shes looking like a top is coming and if thats the case she is arguably the best Distaffer in the land. If Pool Land doesnt sit back, then there is a problem for the Pletcher trio as Take D'Tour will run away from them. Just dry capping the card (saving money for next weekend) plus my confidence is shot after yesterday and thus far today at Toga.
