![]() Does anybody else find it comical that she is 5/2 on the ML?
What do you all think she will go off at? |

![]() Here's the scoop -- read all the way down:
http://www.drf.com/news/article/84695.html Now tell me that Pletcher doesn't think that maybe he should have run her in the Derby. He may not admit it publicly . . . Yeah, I know . . . Beyer 110 for Street Sense and 104 for Rags. Tell me when you can make money betting 6 point Beyer differences Or betting Beyer figures at all. Bet any Beyer figure you want . . . last highest . . . highest lifetime . . . you name it and it is a sure way to the soup line. Rags cooked a 1:49 and change in serious slop. Finished in 12.19. Didn't have a dream rail trip on a fast track. That's a running machine. I hope she runs in the Belmont. |

![]() I hope she does too and unless something happens in a workout between now and then, we get our wish in 5 weeks. Todd and Mike are playing it coy, this horse is shipping to Belmont Sunday to begin preparation.

Belmont a bad place to run a filly first time against the boys...in the entire history of the race, only two fillies have won...Ruthless in the very first running at Jerome Park in 1867 and Tanya in 1905 when the race was run at 10 furlongs! Strange place to try her...is Pletcher getting desperate?

![]() Coolmore doesn't need Street Cry getting a Triple Crown winner in his first crop.
Spoiler time. I wouldn't be surprised if the entire American arm of Coolmore shows up. I am repeating this information, by the way. Heard it somewhere else |

![]() The last filly I remember in the Belmont was Shug sending out My Flag to finish third to Editor's Note and Skip Away.

![]() I don't know if anyone has posted this but Rags is the half sister to Belmont winner Jazil (who can be traced back to Colin)
Maybe they will run her in the Belmont it probabl depends on whether or not Street Sense can get it done in Baltimore

![]() I believe that while Rags is a half to Jazil, Jazil was bred a bit better to go the Belmont distance... JMO.

Come on Cajun, A.P. Indy might go down in history as the best high-profile distance stallion in a long time. Bernardini, who had never ran beyond a mile in his career, and was making his two-turn debut in the '06 Preakness...improved his form markedly in that race, and in all distance races from that point forward. A.P. Indy has been bred to many distance challenged dams, and those matings have produced foals who've thrived routing. The stats I have are one year old, but I have an average winning distance of 8.3 furlongs for offspring of A.P Indy. Compared to 7.3 furlongs with Seeking the Gold. A. P. Indy is always the first stallion that comes to mind when you think of a sire that produces high quality, late developing routers. Horses like Mineshaft, Bernardini, Aptitude, Golden Missile, Master Command, etc. As a racehorse, A.P. Indy was also a true distance horse, winning the Belmont himself. Seeking the Gold, while an EXCELLENT race horse, never won beyond 9 furlongs. |

![]() You know, are her speed figures really that good? This field looks more competitive than I initially thought...

She will not be a single on my P4 ticket. |

![]() Rags To Riches is no lock. This is a very good field with very competitive speed figures. I think that 5/2 in a 14 hore field is about right. I really like Octave in here.
