Post by: TGJB on March 27, 2008, 04:22:05 PM: Because the races go off in the middle of the night California time. You gotta be a farmer to watch them out there.

Post by: girly on March 27, 2008, 04:29:56 PM: I didn\'t think about that- I\'m gonna be up early on Sat. to see all the action!
I\'m sure whatever you decide will be an interesting handicapping race.

Post by: firmturf on March 27, 2008, 05:20:36 PM: I can\'t get excited about him.

His trainers stats tell me to not use him. The trainer has 5 wins in the last year:

Mcl 10,000 at Ind
4000clm @ Elp
5000clm @ RD
Alw race at Mnr
Maiden race at Mnr

The last Group I winner he had from Peru ran up the track in a non graded event. His Group 3 Peru winner ran up the track at Lone Star.

Now this guy gets the keys to the \"Peru Woner Horse\"?

No thanks!

Title: Re: ROTW? - which one
Post by: fkach on March 27, 2008, 08:36:37 PM: Majestic Warrior got hurt last year. IMO, he was rushed into a pretty tough spot for his 3YO debut coming off an inury, but he ran a lot better than it looks. Watch the race. He was very wide most of the race but made a move past horses like a very superior animal before he tired badly. He was probably very short. I think he either moves forward a lot or the wheels fall off. The outside post is not going to help.

Post by: Silver Charm on March 27, 2008, 09:46:06 PM: I think the problem with this horse is his wheels are coming off.

Literally

Taggs horse might be tough in here

Post by: RICH on March 28, 2008, 08:11:09 AM: Taggs horse has a big 4 pt top last out, You have the big number horses at 8,9,12 and you got the inside, a tad slower Smooth Air, working very well over that deep calder track, with this race in mind. I like the pattern, the post and the plan.
Title: Re: ROTW? - which one
Post by: jbelfior on March 28, 2008, 08:17:13 AM: Tagg\'s horse will be tough. One has to assume he won\'t bounce considering the spacing and solid workout pattern.

Would not put a dime on FIERCE WIND. That\'s 2 drifts in a row. Was lucky to win last since BIG TRUCK has no turn move. The other colt out of that race may improve tomorrow at a price. Nice inside post, stamina building works. SMOOTH AIR had to alter course when Zito\'s colt bore out @ Tampa. Not a bad use in the exotics.

Good Luck,
Joe B.

You reading my mind??

Connections had this race circled since November. Florida bred and owned. Would make a nice trophy in their Florida home.

Good Luck,
Joe B.

Post by: hossgnat on March 28, 2008, 02:09:05 PM: I think Majestic Warrior is very likely to run in the money with a decent ground-saving trip. Not impossible for the win.
