The Saranac ROTW

[nyc1347]

Turf Melody -  from top to top on dirt this horse has been gappy.  set a new top on turf last out but is 3 points faster on dirt.  would need a new top here to compete and im not too sure that will happen given the history.

Fantastico Roberto -  nothing wrong here except this horse bounced slightly last out.  underlay with odds but is right there.. should run good w no issues but will most likely be too short to win here.

Lethal combination -  should bounce here.  bore in last time out and this horses previous top was 4 months ago.  should need some more time to get back to a new top effort.

mystic -  consistent but leveled off. i can see another 7 but dont think that would win in this field.


devon rock -  well heres the one i like.  top last out but is forward moving within means on the turf.  plenty of rest and out of this group hes the one imo that i can picture with the best chance of running a new top effort

citrus kid -  needs a multiple point new top here and il pass.

1. devon rock
2. fantastico roberto
3. mystic

good luck

NYC:

Good analysis.  Hopefully DEVON ROCK can relax early and stalk.  Bred to handle the distance and tracking trip should be helped by the extreme bias.

Castellano and Johnny V battle for this one and the riding title.  I\'ll go with JJ at 5-1.


Good Luck,
Joe B.

Where\'s Cove with the \"skinny\" on CK?

Any thoughts today Jim?

Sorry guys, I was up at the spa and wasn\'t checking the board.

Good thing I didn\'t post because I would have told you we had a very live horse at a big price.

We will never know since my man Channing tried to run him through the bushes.

Saved ground all the way around which was great but he took the ground saving thing very literally by trying to run through the hedge instead of up the hedge.

Frustrating, I think we win if he has room but that may be a biased opinion.

Cov:

It would have made my pick-3 a winner!  I don\'t know if the horse had enough, frankly, but it\'s nice to think it would have been close.

Leamas,

Would have been a really nice pick 3, sorry about that.

We will get \'em next time!
