I don't understand why people think we should talk about a race like the Del Mar Futurity.I agree it's P.R.,or H.G.,and I would not single either one.Some of these races are not difficult enough to warrant writing about.

Scuds I appreciate really good horses and if Prime was trained by a big name trainer his debut would be widely known and written about.
Because Paasch trains him, he has flown to some extent under the radar.
His debut was absolutely awesome, and I expect everyone to know who he is after the race today. Hes the goods.

Yea,it appeared to be a special horse.I just am not sure that H Greely is not also very good.In that 1st race(With Victor)this horse had a slow start,and was way wide the whole turn.Still came better than most horses would.Then he got tired,but still tried(and got 2nd to P Secret.)

Paasch is a good trainer, an even better story.. and, as Oracle said, this horse really is the goods.. not sure if he's as good as Pletcher's duo, or even TizWonderful.. but he should handle these pretty easily.

He was a price the first time he won. I've been watching PR since his workout at the two-year-olds in training sale at Barretts in May. He is an Orientate who is HIP #103 if anyone wants to check him out. Orientate is going to be a major sire. See the thread titled Circular Quay if you want to check out some of the other Orientate's that I like.

I can't single Prime Ruler.He was forced to take up,and was left a long way back off a pace that appeared to be too fast (or the track wasn't friendly to the front.)So,I do not know his preferred style yet.I would guess he will rate about 3-5 lengths off.I would guess he will come flying again,but not putting all the eggs there.

Scuds he didnt break bad, he was wiped out. Big difference there.
WIth that speed he displayed once on track, don't expect him to be so far off today. Quite frankly if he displays the talent he displayed in his debut, and has matured even a tad in the past month physically and mentally, he should put on quite a nice show today.

Horrible betting race like Scuds eluded to. Like 2, maybe 3 possible contenders. One will be 4/5 the other 2 will be 3/1. Just a watch race. I hate 2 year old racing, I really do. Prime Ruler is no secret, everybody knows about him as his price will indicate.
