Forego whatever you are doing keep doing it man.
it POURED here last night for hours. Vicious thunderstorms and lightning. Kianti barged into my room,jumped on the bed and hid next to me under the covers. poor guy had no clue what was happening.
Anyway Belmont might very well be washed out.
Next Friday Pino calls the shots.
The following weeks are open. If anyone would like to steer us on track and race who hasn't yet just post up and u got it.
safe day

Richie, your horse was the major reason why the favorite #1 did not get to run his race as Double Matrix headed him goining into the turn. That horse has not been challenged like that in his TUP races. The #1 a 9 year old was claimed by Scott Craigmyle??? The ex-trainer of #1 is actually a pretty decent trainer and he might have been trying to get rid of damaged goods. The last time this horse was claimed was back in October of 05 for ony 3200 dollars. No takers recently at TUP at a higher level, but in Hollywood you have a few guys like Scott Craigmyle willing to jump on the bandwagon. Be interesting to see what this horse does for him.
Getting back to your horse he ran quite well for being away from the races since January. Actually had the lead going into the stretch. I would put him on my horses to watch list if you do those things. For myself I am glad this is a 2 horse methodology because if someone told me I could only play one horse to win I would have used #7 over my other horse. #7 Sabalucious only beat 1 horse. Good call using the AP line for your horse. Since a mile race at AP is run out of a chute this is only a one turn race, so it is very comparable to a sprint. The horse was a contender, the paceline was correct, and he ran a very good race.
