I am looking at Stanford in this race. In a race that is jam packed with speed,Stanford will not be part of that scenerio as many anticipate.He has already gone the distance of ground at GP,and around 2 turns. His best races as a Sprinter are when he comes off the pace a bit. The only reason he went to the front in his last ,was the lack of another speed. He did not lose that race,he was beaten by a Superior horse. Drawing the rail,he will be closest to the pace and get first run on the far turn. I doubt that any of these can outsprint him to the wire.
Since he just took down a paycheck of over 300 grand. You eneter him and decide later on. Playing with house money now.
I think you meant 2015. But the one that is still possible,if NYRA gets brave and coughs up the big bucks. Met Mile on Belmont Stakes Day. Chrome,Bayern and Shared Belief. I believe if they make the purse 2 Million,they may have a shot. Would be ideal in that all would not be hindered by the distance.Also the race being a 1 turn mile,post position would not negatively affect any of the horses.
I think he heard information on her. Even though he was not there,i think the Proffessor or Fartin gave him the go ahead. Or maybe it was his new found pal at the DRF
To put in in perspective.A horse like Wild Cat Red is not developing. He was running faster in the Spring than he is now. Yes he is running fast now,but seriously doubt he will be getting better. Assuming everything equal and your guy comes back sharp. Red i doubt will offer serious competition.

You are correct and i somehow read it wrong. Guess i am seeing things(lol). That being said,there really is no reason to face the boys. In the race i am only using 2 horses. I will use her and i will use Just the Judge. Who in your opinion is the better horse
To the Euros,if you can answer me the real reason to the following question. I am looking at the BC Filly/Mare Turf. In looking at Dank,i am wondering why she is in this race and not running against the Boys. In her last i see that she beat Magician(logical chalk in the Turf Classic) and Treve(Arc winner) I know the race was in June and she has not been seen since. If the reason is physical issues,i can understand to a degree. For them to ship her over here for a big race,i have to assume that she is on full tilt mode. Not to undiscore the importance of a prestigious race such as the Distaff turf. But Dank won this race last year,it is almost a free pass this year. I am one that does not want to see the Girls facing the Boys. But that is on the Dirt. For some reason on the Turf,it is not as pronounced.
Goblin , your favorite sire will have a big shot of getting a BC winner from one of his prodgeny. Regardless of the long odds, this lass stands an excellent chance of getting her pic taken on Saturday.
I could not of been happier with the draw. First of all,there is a very long run to the 1rst turn. If CC wanted to,he could be on the lead in this race,but why bother. With Moreno drawing inside of Bayern,it looks as though it will be contested. SB in my opinion drew poorly,not that i think he will pose a legitimate threat to CC. Smith has a problem from this spot. Does he send and try and track the 2 horses in front of him. Tough order for a horse that has never been the distance. Plus with that trip,CC will be tracking him and wait for Smith to commit. The other alternative is that Smitty take back a bit. Then Espi just grabs theCatbird seat in tracking the pace. The difference here is that CC has already won the biggest race in the world with that trip. Either way, Team Chrome has got to be smiling Ear to Ear.
