I dont get the allure of that horse, his one fast race looks like it was not as good as the rating, nothing he beat has done much, and his SA race was very average.

10 pnt, not that anyone here would ever read, care or remember my writings, but I almost always handicap and bet the Triple Crown races differently that I do any others during the year.

Truly, I play 'em more like a lottery and toss my normally accepted race betting logic aside. Not advocating the approach, but at least I truly always enjoy the Triple Crown race finishes, regardless of the winner.


I just really believe that Prado is going to have some way to hit the board with Take the Points tomorrow.

If the filly wins and Prado's not there, I'll be happy just the same.

Take The Points ran maybe his biggest race in the Sham. He made a couple runs at the Pamplemousse and held off the suck-up trips.

he could the hit the board.

this race is full of options
