hmmmm...
take d'tour has come into her own lately, but her previous experiences at two turns would tell me to look elsewhere--as if her odds wouldn't be enough to do so anyway. and then there's the fact she's never run this far. absolutely a bet against. i'd use her in tris, not sure i'd put her in an exacta, but some might disagree. but could she steal it on the front end? i think her winning streak ends today. so, who to go with? a tough spot for summerly to come back in. i think i'd go with pool land, as i think pletcher will run her and probably oonagh. depends on the tote tho, pletchers may be bet down as well. he's certainly cleaning up on stakes so far. also like balletto here.

Spun Sugar, I have liked this horse for well over a year.

Pletcher runs 1-2-3 in here, just spin the dial or guess on which one finishes where. Its that wide open between his 3 fillies.

supposedly only two TAP horses will run.

summerly, classy charm are scratches. apparently todd is going for the tri now--might as well!
bhorse article said pletcher was waiting to see how the race shaped up to decide which of the three would sit...change of plans apparently.

I liked Oonagh a lot more before Summerly and Classy Charm scratched. Not sure if Pool Land will push Take D'Tour or not but 2 of the 4 expected pace are now gone. I'm liking Take D'Tour a lot more and Balletto a lot less now.
1. Oonagh Maccool 2. Take D'Tour 3. Spun Sugar

I agree a lot with this assessment. I think Oonagh Mccool is still the best in this race... I'm hoping Pool Land pushes Take D'Tour up front... if not it could be a problem for the rest of the field. If that pace scenario takes place, the only horse OM has the worry about is Spun Sugar in my opinion....

Zippy, I'm banking on the idea (who knows if its good or not) that Pletcher entered Pool Land as more or less a rabbit to help out Spun Sugar and Oonagh. Did he? Who knows and thats the problem. If she is only entered for her speed, she is a very classy rabbit and much more talented than the allowance horses that we usually see as rabbits. If thats the case then Oonagh has no problem here - like sumitas said shes looking like a top is coming and if thats the case she is arguably the best Distaffer in the land. If Pool Land doesnt sit back, then there is a problem for the Pletcher trio as Take D'Tour will run away from them. Just dry capping the card (saving money for next weekend) plus my confidence is shot after yesterday and thus far today at Toga.

I read an article (can't remember if it was DRF or Bloodhorse) where Pletcher was quoted as as saying "he's not going to use one of his horses as a rabbit because they're all quality mares"... but I don't buy it. Pletcher also went on to say Take D'Tour got an easy lead in her last two races and that it wouldn't happen this time. I think Pool Land will be sent!!

Oonagh Macool is the the best mare in this group around two-turns, but I really believe Balletto will improve around two turns and is "the bet"' in this race at around 10-1.

For the record though, going into the weekend Lael had 69 starters and had earned about 3.5M, Darley had 162 starters and had earned about 2.5M. Lael has made more money on nearly 100 less starts. |
