Hey Mall!
Did see Gators and Bears. He was a good bet on Saturday...just wish he had won. That exacta was the only bright spot in an otherwise down day for me. My second best race after the Commonwealth was the Blue Grass and that was only because I chose not to bet it (if I had, I would have taken a position against Bandini).
Glad to hear that the connections of Tizawinner are feeling optimistic.
As for Moscow, they no longer offer betting on American racing here, so I am stuck with the internet. They have said I can special order the Derby, but we will see. The last time I special ordered the Derby here, they had all the pre-race coverage and everything and then they shut off the signal and the betting at 12 minutes to post, so I was stuck high and dry and could not get my bets down.
Sad to hear they are not sending Blues and Royals over. It would have been nice to get the horse at a healthy price. Dettori would have really created a conundrum for me. With 20 horses, I do not even want to think about the trouble that guy could find.
