Considering how they were bet, I don't think Uncle Mo and Alexandra Rylee were track assisted.

Well the first race winner drew off like he was miles the best.. While I agree the mdn's were best certainly the track amplified the situation. I am starting to think a Lil Warm is looking VERY tough.

They aren't back on the dirt for 2 hours...Baffert/Rapport are hoping the track stays put

Litigation Risk must have been thought of as an ok horse before today considering the spots they put him in, Cocalero kissed the dirt and still ran well, Maximus Ruler did nothing, I've never liked Aspire.

I don't like that horse at all. Bet heavy.

Nice win by Mo, but I'd have to guess those runners behind him were pretty sucky.

I thought that Congie horse was running a nice race, but basically while Uncle Mo ran that insane last 1/4, everyone else was also running like they were going uphill.

And who are these Repole people??

I don't know who else this guy owns, but he owns another Pletcher horse, Stay Thirsty, who Uncle Mo worked with (this is why I asked the question).

14 juvenile winners for Todd at the meet - that's amazing.

Thanks...

Unfortunately it killed my double with Dynaslew. I didn't like her because of the way the horses who beat her ran last, but I did use her defensively in the exacta (didn't have the 2, so I don't think it counts as the terrible sin of redboarding ) and the double with the Ballerina.

No, but it sucks if the track is completely biased.....

Question: If two horses work in company and one horse blows his field apart, does it say something about the other horse or are workouts/races completely unrelated?

Sorry, it's not really a clear answer, but depends on what the trainer is looking for in the work.

That's a good answer - thanks!
