Little Distorted isn't listed on there --- he's a very talented horse with a ton of route breeding on the bottom.
Long River is owned by Darley, right???? If yes, who trains?

I don't see that outfit winning the Derby anytime soon, unless they dramatically change their ways. Also, if it's trained by Harty, yuck.

Just watched Long River, he looked ok to me. I thought the heavy favorite that ran behind him in his debut looked interesting. Nevada.

McLaughlin.

It's the same connections as Alpha. They aren't shipping these types to Dubai to try and ruin them any more.

Yeah Sheikh Mo is rational and has proved so in the past. Go all in on that horse.

Yeah but that's home. He'll sacrifice any horse for ego.

Perhaps, but this horse hasn't even broke its maiden yet.

Still a maiden after two starts.

Have you watched his other races? He's not much.

He's more likely to be claimed by David Jacobson this winter than being in the gate the first Saturday in May.

Yeah, I watched them after posting that.

Perhaps long on turf will work for that one.

Nevada is pretty bad. He just bombed at Keeneland at 3-5.

Yeah, he ain't much, though like I just said, maybe going long on turf will be his game.
