Hope it is permissible to retract my previous post believing that Travis Stone would improve his m/l skills. I even exchanged messages with him about his m/l making and he explained how solid he was doing with the job. Let me quote actually so as not to mis-state his high opinion: [i]Honestly, I've been more than pleased with my lines so far.[/i]
Well Mr. Stone, I'm predicting you get an "F" in Race 7 tomorrow at the Spa. As readers here probably know, I follow Ingrid Mason horses very closely. She has a firster in with works of: 1:12 3/5, 59 3/5, 33 flat, 33 4/5, and 23 showing on the page. Sire is Tiz Wonderful who is 20% with firsters. Regardless of whether you believe the horse wins or not, I'll hereby declare it as we do at Fairmount Park---If this horse is 20-1 or higher, I'll walk home the 20 plus miles from Fairmount tomorrow after racing. This is an obvious miss. Further, if the 2 goes off half the price of 747 as Stone predicts, I'll buy richiebee's airfare, hotel, and and tickets to Del Mar for next year's Pacific Classic that pits Exaggerator against Nyquist and Songbird.
Mike Beer picks 747 on top, Kenny Peck picks him 3rd, and Chuck Kuehhas has him also on top. And I've received 3 texts from friends that they are playing this one. I predict he opens as 2nd choice and drifts as high as 7-1 at most but I'm calling 5-1 at the bell. Best of luck. For the record, I will not be playing this horse to win and not in horizontals.
