wow, a couple of really good races.
can't wait to see how giant oak and summer's empire fare here -- loved the former's two wins at AP and think the latter's going to turn out okay after all. and good old Sidcup shows up. love that guy.

Well I know where I will be Saturday! I have been waiting for this race. Hopefully I will be able to get up close and get some good pics. I will be pulling for My Pal Charlie and Indygo Mountian. I know Indygo Mountian hasnt really shown much but I really like him.

A$$ switches Bridge off Uno Mas to Dumar. Hernandez picks up the mount on Uno Mas. And we all know A$$ only uses Bridge for his very best stock (which is confussing anyways), interesting.
giving giant oak a long look, even though i hate the layoff -bt-

Another fine day of racing at the Fairgrounds. What was looking like mid size fields explodes to full or fuller fields, particularly pleased the filly race is now up to 8.
Weather is going to be chilly this week, with NO RAIN  , then warms up for Saturday to the low 70's, sunny and breezy.Freisan Fire I think will still be tough in here, and hopefully Indygo Mountain can move forward, he has had a tough go of it this year. Hernandez and Assmussen have had quite a successful pairing here this season, although I agree the move with Bridgomahan to Dumar is suspect. Really interested with Giant Oak also that Prado comes in to ride, even with the long lay off, supposedly he has been working well here. And Julien comes into ride Au Moon once again. Turf should be very nice, had alot of rain yesterday. Small group of DT'ers meeting up at the paddock bar and sharing my box, 1 is even flying in for a little vacay. Going to be a fun filled day!!!

I haven't watched the LeCompte on the DVR yet, I need to watch it, such a different perspective when you are actually at the track being a railbird...  That first clubhouse turn is going to be a bit tricky with that size of a field, it could either put a horse in the race or decidely put them at a huge disadvantage. Prado has ridden here a few times, but the rest are regular riders, even Julien even though he's at GP this year, but spent 3/4 of the season here last year.

6 stakes ---4 graded.... too bad I have to work or else I would come on down and join y'all....
Early thoughts..... Race 4 Pan Zaretta Secret Gypsey chalk..... Shilla could pull the upset Race 5 Colonel Power... Match race between Chamb-Bridge and Storm Treasure???? not so fast... plenty of speed including a girl.. Treasure at the rail might find traffic... don't leave out Rouse the Cat Race 6 Mineshaft... I see Honest Man over Grasshopper... but My Pal Charlie could have a say-so Race 7 FG Cap-- Questionable affair.... I see Corrupt edging the upset minded Windward Island Race 8.. Silverbulletday.... Just Jenda is just fine with me as a single... Race 9 Risen Star.... Giant Oak stakes claim as the early Derby choice Indygo fares better but not good enough Soul Warrior shows some heart filling out the tri.... Just some thoughts.... enjoy your week pondering a big week in the big easy... Mardi Gras parades have started so it's a great time to visit...

CONFIRMED that this is the long stretch, normal finish line, but remember it is short going into that first clubhouse turn, comes up very quickly.
