Smooth Air

[ELA]

A friend of mine owns him. We spoke a couple of weeks ago, nothing specific though on yes, no, go, don't go, etc. He and his family have been in the game a long time (in various ways) and they play the game at a pretty good level. Not that any of that means anything though, LOL.

I actually have some ongoing business with him and will probably be talking to him in the next few days (if he's back). I hate being one of the "what are you going to do" people as there are tons of them. But, I am sure the topic will come up.

he is a nice horse. He wouldn't be completely misplaced in a race like the Derby. There are also some races that he could be out winning right now. Not really similar horses, but Imawildandcrazyguy was a bit like that last year, in the respect that he could have been winning some races but he danced a few big dances. Even got a 4th in the Derby. Who can argue? The Florida Derby worked out well for Smooth Air. A 2nd in the FL derby is better than probably all the races he could have won.

Tell them congrats on the FL Derby placing, they have a terrific horse, and this fan hopes they run in the Derby and have a ball doing it! I think the horse could earn some money there.

Wing, you can watch the replay on Bloodhorse TCM page - he made a long, sweeping, steady move around nearly all the turn, and closed pretty strongly against the winner. He did look to me like he had his eyes on the winner and wanted to run him down. Owners should be awfully proud.

i bet him today . thought 18-1 was a steal. but i was too stupid to use big brown. paid dearly for missing exacta. the horse can run but that favorite was a freak today.
