Alydar,
I wish they paid at the windows based on figures, my POP would have at least cashed
his wins bet each time. He doubled his bet each successive time & got beat again & again.
I took a wack with War Emblem at
20-1, if Perfect Drift would have
gotten 2nd, I'd just be getting back
from the Bahamas about now! I just read that WE has chips in both ankles, hard to beleive they haven't moved into a spot to make him go
lame. Booklet will make WE either rate
a little or cause him to run eyeball to eyeball for a while. Medaglia d'Ora
ran credibly but the switch to Bailey
will ruin the price. They might leave
HH alone but a really good trainer
I know told me he saw HH train in FLA
and he was a push button horse who did everything easy & when he was actually
asked down the lane in his final prep at CD,
he felt the horse was spent. He said if he were his horse, he'd hardly see the track before the Preakness. HH may have very well
been squeezed dry. USS Tinossa has been
lighting up the worktab in KY, he will need to improve but he will be a price.
Good Luck.
