War of Will

The only horse I can think of that ran well coming off of an X is Invisible Ink. I just can’t see this horse putting up a good number with this pattern.

Thunder Gulch.

[Molesap]

With the scratch of Haikal, he moves one post to the right. It is probably still not he place to be, but the inside is not quite as bad.

Bravazzo ran pretty well in derby last year off X. Ran 6th but did run well.

Rail may turn out to be place to be after all the rain tomorrow, have to see. Lots of golden rails at CD in the slop.

I love WOW tomorrow. I believe he moves forward  off  his competitive numbers in Louisiana prior the La Derby debacle. He has never been better, loves the surface, if it rains all the better. He gets sent from rail, hopefully clears and get\'s the ground saving trip. I don\'t think the 10f is an issue as his brother, the ill-fated TACTICUS was a stakes winning  dirt marathoner.

I watched all his workouts, and he couldn\'t be doing any better. He\'s set for a top effort for sure. The rail is a huge issue for me though, rain or shine, and I\'ve not determined how strong the Louisiana prep races are, but I\'m thinking they may be better than usual this year. The inexperienced jockey doesn\'t excite me, but the price is right enough to allow for the downsides. So I can see the upside.

It is when they get to the first turn. He’s not the best breaker. He better like a mud bath and carrying another pound in weight.

[jerry]

Very true. I’m now rethinking this horse

[sekrah]

I REALLY want to like this horse because it looks like he\'s ready to fire. Can a fan of his convince me that he\'s going to handle mud getting kicked in his face after Max Security or Vekoma come down on top of him? Because all signs point to no in my eyes.

[big18741]

I\'ll use him a little just in case but maybe Baltimore is where he fires.

He might need this and the setup seems bad.
Preferred trip looks like outside stalking.
No indication that he can relax eating dirt/slop behind horses.
They might want the lead but is he quick enough to get it?
If he\'s on the front end isn\'t he gonna pay the price late?

Casse stats for tops/pairs bouncing back off an X kinda weak.

[P-Dub]

At 16/1 I\'ll pay to find out.

He\'s won over an off CD track before. If he can break sharp enough to get some type of position, maybe he can work out a trip.

There are a lot of horses that can potentially have rough trips, so why not take one of the fast ones at a price??

[P-Dub]

Would love to have seen what would have happened if WOW doesn\'t have to check

[P-Dub]

They won\'t have the balls to do it, but the winner should be taken down

[ajkreider]

But country house put up?  That\'s tough
