Bobby Frankel has been shrewdly winding his barn up for a massive fall victory assault unlike anything Horse Racing has ever seen before.

That\'s what I\'m thinking, too.  That\'s why I think War Zone is a good future book opportunity.  He has already won on turf at Santa Anita, albiet down the hill.  His pedigree screams \"mile on grass\".

War Zone has moved west...worked at 4f at Hollywood Park today.  He should get one prep race, and then the BC Mile on Oct 25th.

Aceriley63--

One thing in your favor is the quirky turf course at Santa Anita. Of all the major turf courses in this country, I would say that experience over the SA course is as big an edge as you can get. Unless one is talking about a LURE or MIESQUE, my opinion would be to downgrade the chances of any horse who has not raced over that course.


Good Luck to ALL at the Windows,

I guess I should have played War Zone at 70-1 in Pool 3.  I only got 50-1 on him at the casino.  This is a case where the parimutuel pool was a better deal.  First, let\'s hope he makes it to the race.
