That\'s what has to happen!  Without the general public the game fails.  But until racetracks and their management feel that pain there won\'t be any changes.  I know I\'m not alone in saying I\'m playing less every year.

Courting a full brother to Clairere trained by Pletcher in the first at Big A.  I\'m really excited to see this one run, these Bernardini mares have just been crushing it!  Hoping the Chads take money but this one might be on a short list behind Englishman.

Jerry

So sorry to hear of Alan\'s passing.  I was lucky enough to sit in on a couple of Alan\'s Traver Stakes seminars and had the opportunity to ask some questions about quarter point moves and circling patterns afterwards.  Those insights have helped me cash many tickets since then.  My deepest sympathies goes out to you and any of Alan\'s close friends and family.  T.

All I saw hurt horses.  Fierceness bearing out badly and Sierra Leone again bearing in.  Weather it\'s his paddle or not it\'s really costing him lengths.  Batten Down was the only healthy horse in the race and should improve off this, just isn\'t good enough.  This race did make me a believer that Torpedo Anna will be a major contender in the Travers and that the Japanese should take another shot with Forever Young.

Irad 1-22 in two turn dirt races at Pimlico.

#3. Catching Freedom driving line but tough course to close down the stretch.

#5. Mystik Dan most likely winner.

#6. Seize the Grey with a wire job?

#7. Just Steel bounce back to Ark Derby, probably more likely than stable mate improving 3-4 lengths.

#8. Tuscan Gold needs to improve to win but it\'s Chad and the fresh horse angle has worked in the Preakness.

#9. Imagination is a toss on paper, he\'s slow!  Would you bet this horse if he was trained by another trainer?  

Raining now and going to rain on and off all day.  3,5,7 EX Box

Spiking a fever can also be a symptom of EPO treatment.

My man!  Love the action.

I\'m hoping the track changes a bit, speed favoring in my mind last night.  By the way turf looked great last night!  Can\'t wait to bet Stiched on Thursday.

No way, no how, despite the perfect draw; does Fierceness wire this field.  Also Sierra Leon off 3 point new point is not for me.  No one is talking about Mystik Dan.  Does he hate distance or was last a bounce off a big new top.  Came back with a bullet work.  Watch out for McPEEEEK!  Love his top and his odds.

Lastly, haven\'t we all seen the Japaneses invaders enough now to know.  I won\'t steal Jerry\'s thunder but on numbers he\'s the one.

Best of luck to all you degenerates!

Why do we keep talking about this when EPO is so rampant!  How is anyone surprised.

Fairmount

Get ready for the price increase on Derby and Oaks this coming year.  Not only does CD want to be paid by Oct. 31st but they just dropped a 12% price increase on season box holders.  Think the time has finally come to give up my box.

Ask the Experts / Belmont Day June 10th 2017
« on: June 09, 2023, 07:56:19 AM »
June 10th 2017 is the day horse racing died in my mind.  Sure I have played since like the addict I am but that was the day I knew that the sport could not and would not police it\'s self.

Thebigfundamental - Pletcher
West Coast - Baffert
War Story - Navarro
Abel Tasman - Baffert
Songbird - Hollendorfer
Disco Partner - Clement
American Anthem - Baffert
Antonoe - Chad Brown
Mor Spirit - Baffert
Ascend - Motion
Tapwrit - Pletcher

Wow, what was on display that day?  Quality horse racing or drugs?  Call me naive but I\'m hoping that HISA forces racing to clean up it\'s act.  Sadly I feel like the Jamie Ness, the Engleharts, the Diodoros, the Jacobsons, the Bafferts are again going to rule the day.

Best of luck.  Tom.
