Obviously Eightyfiveinafifty may just run away from all of them, but I feel like I almost have to play this race and bet against him.
An odds-on horse routing for the first time, stretching out 2.5f in the process, with Chop Chop up? I don't know if I can resist going against that....no matter how fast the horse might be.

I don't typically pay much attention to the jocks, but Chavez is a big negative in my book....especially in longer races.

I didn't realize that nice horses have career top beyers of 74. With other figures of 69, 74, 71, and 52. This horse will be in for 35K at Saratoga this summer.

That horse never goes near Saratoga if he isnt sold.. He isnt horrible and they certainly made a good call buying him. He may get a little better
