On the other hand, Divine Park can easily cruise on the front end with WB. to answer your first question, no I don't think WB can steal it. |

![]() No Benny. And what happened to Fabulous Strike? Looks like a marquee showdown between Tasteyville & Premium Wine. Give the winner a red carpet ride to the BC Sprint and the Eclipse Award.

![]() It's a marquee showdown between two horses who got dusted by Lucky Island?
The race has no stars, but it at least looks like a good betting affair. |

I hope you're joking. |

![]() I havent seen the PPs yet but Premium Wine ran a dapper dandy up here 2 weeks ago and Tasteyville is tough on his day. Then again if Mcglaughlin can get drop downs like Caesar Beware and Stream of Gold to win like they were Lures, he can get this piece up too.

![]() LOL, nothing I bet could possibly win at any price. This is the worst meet I have ever been part of by a lot. I couldnt even get Indyanne to come close to winning. Its been pretty awful here.
Should I take one more stab or just call it quits and wait for next year? |

Sorry to say but i dont think Wanderin boy can steal it. He just isnt classy enough and it seems that extra turn and the better horses always end up getting the better of him. No knock on Wanderin Boy though. |

On another note the bigger question is why did Frankel barring a late scratch enter Out of Control? Not like him to take on an overwhelming favorite like Curlin. Makes you think. BTW to answer the topic question, anything is possible Wanderin Boy can lead this field a long way. Last edited by CSC : 08-28-2008 at 07:52 PM. |

![]() [quote=CSC]I look at things a little differently from what others have said after his Met Mile win, Divine Park is obviously a better horse as a 4 yr old and he gives himself good trips. Why knock him for that? He has won races on the lead, from just off the pace, and from off the pace. That's called versatility. I'm sure he's not going to be any great value on Saturday but he will atleast be in the 2/1 range with Curlin as the deserving heavy favorite. I know Curlin's last race was on turf and perhaps that is a reason why he only ran good/okay but I don't know I didn't really like his effort. If Curlin's 3/5 and Divine Park is 2/1 I think that's a great price differential to take Divine Park. On this track tactical speed is a major plus and right now I'm a believer in Divine Park. I don't think Mclaughlin would have bothered entering him if he didn't think he would run big Sat or get the 1 1/8.
On another note the bigger question is why did Frankel barring a late scratch enter Out of Control? Not like him to take on an overwhelming favorite like Curlin. Makes you think. Because he is training well (on dirt) and he needs to run him somewhere. Hes already here and he could easily take a big piece of this big purse. He was to run in the Sword Dancer but got sick. I dont blame him for taking a shot. I would be stunned if Wanderin Boy was not on the lead and most likely it will be all by himself. Still doesnt make me want to play him. |
