Appreciate your quick response but must note the positives. STEPPENWOLFER is certainly is bred to get better with age and in an interesting dichotomy; each race as a 3yo he has faced tougher, and, improved in each. In Bossier City, in his first race of the year he gamely got up after a :49 half. Then he went to Oaklawn and destroyed 2x foes. As you know this track is deep and "first time OP" this meet is a bet against, but he won smartly. True, he could not gain in the Southwest, but "Lawyer" cruised in :23..:25...25 and remember the mile heats here end early. Then the wide Rebel when bet down to 5-2. The two best works of his career ensue, with the last quarter of his last work in :23 flat under control last Staurday.
Agree JB and his boys are big on weight and ground loss, but I can bed down with that, and accuracy of info, their trademark. Aptitude colt due a "good" trip. "Ron" more than a bit rank in last and making his 14th start for young talented boy carrying big time pressure and throughout race bullseye.
Personally, I am a top shelf pick 4 player and almost always go there. I did hammera runaway $47 winner at OP after a first leg mistake, a week ago, but think I have a single in the Bluegrass and am struggling with minor stakes. Any help? bbb
