You might have me confused with Big Ant,but I am the guy who was real high on Scrappy T.
BTW-Scrappy T is fully recovered from the Preakness smashup and is preparing for the Super Derby on Oct 1.He had a couple of works at Saratoga and is doing fine.Seems he never healed until he was worked on at the Spa by deep tissue massage specialist-Steve Allday.I never knew Bailes went that way,but when you get your hands on an animal with this kind of potential for the first time in your career-you do what you have to.
As for Sun King-two nice efforts in a row after being blinkered off the bench,but I think he goes back into the toilet like he did last spring.He's just a one paced horse with no move.He won't get the lead off of United and Tani MAru,and then he's going to have to pass them at least 3 wide while giving weight,and hold off what's coming from behind him.I think he's in trouble here.If he beats me-no sweat.Gotta take a stand here.I'd bet against him from any post position-Phila Park is a weird track-some horses won't pick their feet up-and Zito other than a handful of races,has been in the toilet all spring and summer.Short priced toss out.If I have the winner and Sun King runs second-I'll have the exacta a couple of times,but only because I made an exacta wheel.I think he's an awful bet here,and will never see the lead at any point in the race.
