CH--


I really liked SMOKESCREEN. I don't mind layoff horse if they are off the pace types since they don't do much running early. And his pattern indicated a healthy horse who, with slight improvement,could really make an impact in here. At 18-1, what a value play.

SUN KING was a logical use just on "class." Field was pretty weak and filled with GR 3 animals. All this knowledge and information and sheet patern reads and pace projections got me nothing but aggravation as Luzzi, who cowers when he gets bumped around, just missed second to the most overrated 3yo around (Southern Africa).

The photo cost me in the neighborhood of $5500...but hey, it's only money.



Good Luck,
Joe B.
