Fact Finding is jumping off the page Triple Beyer plus the same connections as last years Destin Pletcher and Johnny V lookout

I think Tapwrit has a big chance in that race. There should be a decent pace in there with him sitting right behind it. He's gonna have to get the jump on McCracken and hold him off, but I think he can. Also, if for some reason Wild Shot gets left alone on the front, he could be hard to beat.

I like two horses at GP on Saturday too. Almanaar exists to win that race. A lot of nice horses in there including his stablemate, but I think Brown has been pointing this one to this exact spot.

And Donwell should break his maiden going seven on the turf. I'd prefer if the race were a little longer, but it is what it is.

Candid today @ Aqueduct. WWN, thoughts?

Also, JORR, EQB loves Donwell in R8 at GP. 5-1 odds currently. I'd watch for Beach Patrol in the 10th...never count out Hulk Hogan's Wrestlin Boot Travelin Band.

Elate in R8 at Tampa Bay is shitty odds, but probably the winner.

as well she should! very nice race!

Prediction: McCraken will never beat Tapwrit again.

What did they do to my horse? Something was terribly wrong.

Either the jockey wasn't trying or the horse was drugged or both.

I would still take the horse if they ran that race again, because he was better than McCracken.

King and his Court ran the same 1 1/16 mi. distance in his last race, showing incredible late speed to finish around 1:45 flat. And he would have been even more dominant, had he not got bumped out of the gate. But he doesn't try in this race, because he was 45-1??

He was 45-1 because it was a much tougher field. He was going to have to come from way out of it and there were better closers in the race than him.

I know spmack follows this guy Derbyologist on Twitter. I don't know what fucking race that goof was watching. Tapwrit was down behind horses on the fence when McCraken made his big move. Ortiz had Tapwrit in full gear and he got shut off cold, running right into Wild Shot's ass. The horse gathered himself under urging and came back on again. He was flying at the end and Pletcher must have ordered Ortiz to gallop the horse out strong beyond the distance. This is clearly a horse that is looking for more ground. Keep talking about glorified sprinter Irish War Cry, Craig J. Clown show. @sigimendoza

Called the trainer in Florida of King and His Court, Mark Casse, to find out what happened.

The answer was, "He hates the dirt."

How can a horse hate the dirt that much? Would have been nice to know that before I dropped $50.

He took your call? That's actually pretty awesome.

DR is off his rocker. i looked at the field, and there was absolutely no reason to think King had a chance. usually in a field like that, it's safe to say the front runner is going to win.

Tapwrit was very strong in that race. i was disappointed in Fact Finding.
