I say it here every year it\'s my favorite week of the year next to any in the Spa meet.
A little rain shouldn\'t hurt this play, it could get pretty wet later this afternoon there.
Race 4:
Everything Mark Casse puts out lately seems to get bet,he wins his share but not here. Ran a KO number early in his 3yr old season and has not been the same horse since, the drop and bullet work make him 6/5 in here. The 2nd choice sits squarely on the X of a classic 0-2-X and the 5 horse ran back to a number he reacted to last July taking him 9 months to get back to. We just knocked out the first 3 choices in a 7 horse field.
The 2 horse Planet is consistent dirt or turf and has a very nice sprint # on the dams side. The 3 Ulysses has had only one dirt race his first and was eased. He comes back a new gelding with 2 very nice sprint numbers from the dams side. The 4 Da Money Man, I smell a rat, eased at 3/1 in Indiana in his first dirt try now shows up here derby week. The only one I left out was the VanBerg horse who while moving in the correct direction has an OP his last 3 lines.
I\'m boxing the 2,3,4 exacta and going to include the 7 in the triple.
Good Luck and Happy Derby Week To All,
Frank D.
