It is going to look like the upper deck at Comiskey in the 70's with all that smoke...

I’m actually sincerely thinking they will postpone this event. Especially with all the bad press around horse racing lately.

I'll take "The Rapist" for $200 Alex

That's "Therapist"!

It looks like it'll be a good race, a bettor's race. There's no clear cut favorite.

Forte looks strongest in the projections but I kind of like Arcangelo (and the name) as the Cinderella Story out of nowhere. He's got the late speed and won the lucky, Peter Pan.

I think this is a very weak generation of horses. I'm leaning toward one of the developing horses- Tapit Shoes or Arcangelo.

Curious of the price Hit Show will get to...but sticking to me guns here...Tapit Trice...this will be a slog at this distance with absolutely no speed

Tier One-Likely Winners
Tapit Trice (Could win the Belmont as well)

You know, Tapit Shoes (20/1 ml) is interesting in that he should handle the distance based on pedigree above and below..gets the rail and should get away easy...if you told me Sunday morning that Brad Cox and Jose Ortiz won a race it really wouldn't be a "man bites dog" story...hmmmm



You are starting to get good at this handicapping thing JORR


(still like Trice though)

I really need Zandon to beat Cody's Wish here.

My Pick 5 is alive to
1, 6, 7 / 3, 4, 8 / 1, 2, 7, 8

Rail draw and and extra weight will but pressure on 1-Cody's Wish

National Treasure at 5-1 seems worth a shot.
