Thank you for noting these, as neither have races over the poly or turf. This is a paramount issue working on Turfway's card.

Sports Town at 15-1 M/L He's shown he can sit just off the pace and if
Bridge keeps him calmed down he's got a shot against all the early speed.

For You Reppo is another strong longshot who has good late pace figures. He's already gone the distance three times, won once and got a second. He gets the 11 post but has shown he can handle the wide breek at Gulfstream.

Twilight Meteor looks awfully tough to beat switching from turf to Polytrack but everyoone will be all over him and Hard Spun, who will be really tested today. I'm not using either

Have a little side bet going: Which Kend D. horse will get the mistimed move?

There's no telling, its a toss, but it'll happen. Hope not for Pitts sake. It ain't a lock though.

Please tell me Bullara is nowhere near the finish in this thing. Cost me so much money last year on a daily double that I don't even like thinking about it. Lost by a nose and refused to go by a horse.

I agree with you Randall. To me Bullara has very little chance.

Last night at 12:30 I'm looking very interestingly at Approval Rating, I learn during the show that Steve has him on top. Oh my goodness!

This is the one that he and Andy are arguing pedigree and pps about.

I still like this horse. And Hard Spun has 2 nice works over the poly.
