Congratulations! Good Work.

I thought you got jobbed on Woodfield Springs. But I look for any opportunity to hate the NY stewards.

I had a win bet on that horse, thought it was a good no call.

P-Dub:

Good pick, the horse ran well and could have won. Please don\'t tell me you landed on the Pizza Man in the 7th @ AP. He\'s also on my caca list (by ruining my all euro tri box} at least until I bet him the next time he runs.

Looking forward, any thoughts about Taste Of New York in the Pacific Classic? BC bound I guess.

Thanks. I don\'t think Woodfield was bothered by the other horse. Rosie switched the whip to the other hand and the horse veered in.

Good call on HC winning the Arlington Million!  Did you play him because he paired up or did you read something else into the race?  Just curious as I was way off on my analysis of that race.  Congrats on your win!!!!  Good luck!!!

I didn\'t have the Pizza Man, but what an awesome call by John Dooley as he hits the wire.

Thanks...HC had great development at 3(worked nicely right down to the 4)then came right out at 4 and equalled his top then pairs it with short rest and trouble. He had good time coming in and I thought his overall pattern strongly suggested a huge race .
