That is why you win pik 6's and I stick with bets like the grand slam. I hope Tagg wins with that horse but still think Rumspringa is his winner tomorrow. Maybe he wins all three.

Well I like dave better than Rumspringa. In Rum's last Jerkens had a horse whgo was favored named Bernie White Shoes who just never ran a step and who was supposed to at least press the pace a little. When Bernie didn't fire, Rumspringa was loose and gone. I realize that the third place finisher came back on won on saturday(Satsoof) but I don't like Rum being rushed back so quickly off a huge effort and could easily see him regressing.That race is so very hard.

I thought Bernie White Shoes was going to be a star when he beat Barclays other gelding named Polished Arrow. Rumspringa is the real deal. BC Sprint in his future.

Was he a first time gelding last out Bold? I cant find my DRF from October 29th of last year to look it up.

I think so. I know he was off for a long time and I think that he was gelded during his time away from the races.

That would be quite good info to have. I remember his win teh day after the BC at delaware because I played his race. He shocked me by showing guts and not hanging. I keep my DRF's to look up such things and don't have that day's DRF. he wasn't announced last time but they dont have to announce it as long as the DRF and program have it correct. It would be quite good info to know. It may change my opinion on him. I still have him labled as the hanging slug he used to be and they may not be accurate if he has had the ultimate equipment change.

I would check anything I say. I know he is a gelding but maybe he was last year too.

I just want to give my two cents worth.... and you guys are much better cappers than me. With that said,
In the 8th, Frank L puts in Red Crusader. You can say I'm crazy but I think he's an overlooked trainer. In the right spot, he's very dangerous.
In the 9th, Carlos M enters Mister Zee for Flying Zee. Looks likely to me.
