I was impressed with Going Wild....I'm not certain how fast they ran early yet, but I always take note when a lead horse is collared and then draws out again. At 9 marks theres danger a "Comeonmom" and a "Holybull" were at their distance limitation, but to my eye this is another good Golden Missile and I like that Strawberry Road on the back side. He looks tough. Tgraph prolly has a better feel for the race than I do. I don't even know the final time yet.

Typical Lukas MO...go, go, go........His "Distinctive Speaker?" in the Strub tried to run the same race. Burned himself to a crisp, but did in Love of Money with the lead at all costs Lukas strategy.

I miss the Wood Man. I had a few drinks with him in Miami. Not a real acquaintance, just had the chance to buy him a drink. 1985, that would be the year Spend a Buck skipped the Preakness for a Garden State Bonus correct? I think he missed the Belmont too. Creme Fraiche and Stephans Odyssey?
