Anything out of the Arnold barn is an auto toss for me. After years of seeing his horses, many of whom run up the track, the most confident tosses at Saratoga for me are Arnold horses.

He'd much rather be on the golf course.

I have just seen one after another look terrific on paper at Saratoga and run up the track. He may beat me once, but I will consistently beat his over bet horses at Saratoga. I got suckered by them a few years ago and now I have learned. Easiest decision for me to make at the meet.

I am not, I find that on these big days trying to play in a contest overwhelms me since I rarely get an opportunity to handicap the day before the card and I end up suffering in the contest and my wagering.

I agree, I have been finding that at Keeneland the same angle is pretty darn effective. It has gotten to the point that once I see the horse is trained by Arnold I just go to the next horse in the PP's and don't waste my time evaluating the horse's actual chances.

Spa 10

I am a little worried about not having covered the 1 on my ticket after his last performance which was exceptional, but I just feel that there is a lot of speed here and this race sets up on a silver platter for Wildcat Red. Will cover with a small pk3,

$20DD 2/5,6
$1pk3 1,2/5,6/5,6,7,10
