For the Early Birds

[Tavasco]

Ryan Moore aboard #4 DIEGO VELAZQUEZ (IRE) has morning line odds of 14/1. My memory is not what it used to be and I don\'t recall ever seeing jockey R.L. Moore at double digit odds anywhere ever. So I bet him?

OK so the tote becomes active and the first refresh and the horse is 7/1 and my bet didn\'t cause that.

I loved the winner , and over slept.

Bummer!!

Just sharing my thoughts for any watching the UK spectacle.

In the second the crowd\'s betting continues to follow jockey Moore on #10 Shackleton. But I\'m on #13 Too Soon who\'s currently sitting at 60/1 twice his morning line prior to CAW moves? maybe not!  Win and Place with quinella with Ryan in case his mount pairs his last.

At ascot on 6/19/2025, first race, like Exclamation a bit in the Norfolk Stakes, will use him w/ the Appleby horse Wise Approach.

Race 5 has 31 runners @ 1 mile on the turf.    WOW, got to watch that!

Hawthorne runs 31 on an entire card.

Careful, friend.

While I do not think Mr Carey reads this bb, there are several nefarious characters who might. If they put their heads together, they might figure out who you are. You will certainly lose your rewards card. Groan....

Mediocrity hates criticism. Beware.

Say hello to Skip at the program stand for me. I\'m the guy who gave him all my horsey books before departing last year.

Will do. Heard they might be canceling Sunday due to the heat & humidity that are expected.

Was just kidding. I love the place , even though they tore it down!

About 30 years ago I saw a 6f stakes race (no turns) at The Curragh in Ireland that had 28 horses in it.  The winner won by 8 lengths.  That has to be some sort of record.
