Full Transcript
Going to Tropical addition to the horse-racing.
Happy hour is Nest. The real deal on the Oaks Trail.
She sure looked like it in the Suncoast this past weekend.
A salute to Classic Causeway, a runaway winner in the same at
Davis at only flatters. The for more of smile happy.
How good was that, Kentucky Jockey Club stakes and will the
likely favored in the Risen star at the fairground?
This weekend bounce or have another scintillating
performance Louise in the keys. So, is this a rum fueled happy
hour? We'll find out next
Hi, welcome to the horse racing. Happy hour Mike and awful here.
I am high and dry in my normal spot really is.
Louis is is getting got in the, in the water today because you
got in the ocean or the Pool because he's in the keys and
soak up the sun and Megan hates him right now because maybe they
didn't have a pool or natural water feature going on.
I am just yeah. Yeah.
So everything is flooded. The skies have opened and
Kentucky is under water right now and my God tottering today,
tongue Creek is in my living room.
Let's just put it that way. Now are all the animals safe.
That's, you know, first For most, what we've got to be
concerned about, right. Last time I checked, all the
animals are not under water. Just yeah, but the water is like
Six feet away. So it does have to go uphill.
So I'm optimistic, although I just started pouring.
And so everything is great which is totally fine.
And Willie, I guess we're you, you know, are all the kids
alive. Yes.
All right, we're good. Okay, I didn't just go the ocean
today. I did also going to pool and
then nice. Shut off that Dad bod.
Oh, it was obviously just gleaming.
I imagine the reflection off the whiteness of me landed somewhere
in Cuba or like the Bahamas. Yeah, it was not yet.
It's not good. Yeah, there's like there.
They thought there were some like, nuclear attack going on
right signaling. Yeah, I got you discover, by the
way, my wife, I discovered when I so I went to FIU here in
Western Miami for a summer learning Haitian Creole.
All the things you hear about on the horse racing, happy hour and
pills in which isn't a bad woman is imported by a company in
Hallandale Beach. So I would like to think this is
the official drink of Gulfstream Park and so um yeah you know,
this isn't this, where we're at is all over again mostly.
So I'm having a Columbia beer tonight.
You'll piss in service of iesus. Oh, there you go.
Cheers. All right.
I was actually expecting to be a lot more red than you are.
Like I thought I was questioning if you can then he loses SPF.
250, I use 55 today especially shifting well in celebration of
you being in Florida and also me being able to fish in my
backyard. I am Mario, my Alabama Jack's
been conserved. So yeah.
Now the real question is, does Louis come home with a tramp
stamp? That's what I want to know if
like, you know. This is so I got wildlings kids
on Tuesday. Okay, so you got it.
Kristie got a matching one right above her right knee, so you'll
be able to see that interview. Is it, our logo?
How amazing would that be? So just if our, if begging
suddenly disappears, that means like, there's some sort of flood
alarm or something like that, then went off and this is like a
real pirate, this is a real thing, like we're not joking.
Yesterday, I had baby goats, so are they there and High Ground?
They're, you know, they're in high grounds until the water
reaches far. Okay, which it's really not far
from, I mean, it's crazy, you know, being out been have been
out to Megan's place, that's the water.
Would have to go pretty far away.
It is flat. I mean, it's yeah, hundreds of
feet and then we're there. So, yeah, there it is.
So let's get on with the show so we can get as much in as we
possibly can. Let's start with Nest the
question on the show. She just how classy is Nest.
Making what do you think of Nest, super classy but that's
kind of the way that we thought it was going to go down.
I mean talking about that card last week that was one of the
horses that I think both Louis and I agreed early.
So I know that was like a single worthy horse in my opinion and
then she Class come This is what we say and that's exactly what
she did. She just did it with such ease.
It was an awesome awesome performance for her.
Do we will go ahead and watch it sure, let's pull it up.
It's Nast who comes up after the lead.
A Little Lovin lock back to Second as I turn to the top of
the stretch Nest. Now a half lengths in front, a
Little Lovin luck back to Second.
It's three and a half or four nights for back to ha'penny down
the outside with blame the champagne, but a final Furlong
to go and Nest set sail for home.
It's Nest by the 16th hole widening.
Now a 3 in front, a little oven luck, second-best to the most
facile of winners here. Nest, go on to Win It, geared
down by four and a half five of the end.
There she is. Looking impressive, you know,
125 favorite. There's a reason.
Yeah, she really liked it. I love the fact that I mean she
just looks super comfortable and I rather at ease he was coming
around the turn. He wasn't even pulling away from
those horses yet, and he just kind of looked under his arm,
he's like, oh yeah, we're good. So much left in the tank,
really. You are our resident Philly
expert? What did you think of this?
Not as fun to add to what Megan said?
I'm always hesitant early in the year.
R2 this early at least a mid-February to sort of annoyed
the top, you know a horse that's going to be there on Oaks day.
She appears to be one that's going to be running on Oaks day.
I would run lots of things that happen, but I think the horses
that we've seen, she's now gone to turns multiple times of look,
very good doing it. And so, I don't know that
there's a reason all of those connections that she shouldn't
be in the Louisville, the first Friday in May, and of course
boring. Hopefully she stays healthy.
Just final, that always happens. And and of course, we're going
to learn more Because this weekend we start 50-point races
and that's when things start getting real.
So and that's going to make it even more interesting because
well I'm almost there yet, talk about classic always Causeway
first in the same breath Davis. Let's real quick, let's go to
that one. Let's take a look at closet
Causeway, classic Causeway. Comes to the top of the stretch.
Little vic has been hounding him throughout as they spin to the
top of the lane. For the Sam F Davis, it's
classic Causeway off to turn it front.
Now by two, little vic back in the second spot.
Lugging in this. A Rum Runner, it's two more than
two volcanic ships, ational trying to run on down the crown
of the track. 16 pole, classic Causeway here sip shakes know
who burst out from the pack but it's classic Causeway.
I read Ortiz, easy as can be in the Sam Davis.
Want to buy for Another just huge win.
Favorite pulls it out. Yeah.
So thoughts on that 1 million I just I thought he was certainly
a horse to look at. We talked a little bit about his
race in the Kentucky Jockey Club which is proving to be a really
important two-year-old race coming into the three-year-old
season because we see multiple horses come back and I'm sure
we'll talk about that. But you know, the one question
was he had never won at two turns before, so it was Ken he
kind of stretch out and, you know, and get that done.
But But I thought that he had a little thing at a little trouble
at the start in the Kentucky, Jockey Club, and he just looked
like a horse that ran well enough and looked like he was
going to develop as he got older and as he had some time, that's
exactly what you saw there. They give him some time off and
he came back, you know, a more capable horse to handle a
distance and I think more mature mentally as well.
Yeah. Megan, if people don't know what
Megan's referring to, we saw the Holy Bull winner with white, a
Barrio last week. This week with the same update
is classic Causeway, then coming up upcoming in the Risen star.
Small happy will be in that race.
So Louis, which is the top three finishers of the Kentucky?
It reverse order. Yeah, right.
Yeah. Let's pause, we actually looked
like what a barrio in this race, which is interesting.
And so he looked a little Greener switching leads coming
in like that. After that second turn that
doesn't bother me in February. He looked really great.
It's something that he can figure out as he goes forward.
And so it is This is usually the time of year.
Oh gosh, I've got to make sure I got this right.
Mike is this usually when you tell us that the three year old
crop sucks and then you like it at Derby time and then you hate
it, I'm not on the three-year-old, crops sucks just
yet. I think there's a lot of there's
not a lot to number one because I'm a huge.
Like, like I love Messier and weariness again, in the in the
Risen star, there's a horse that freaking beat messy.
That's so yeah. And then we got, I mean, this
it's it might be shaping up to be a little bit more competitive
and I'm just totally intrigued by what happens what the baffert
owners I think you use the right word by the way, I think
appetitive is the right word. I don't know if it's how great
it is or anything like that. That was the Grand jury's going
to be but I do think there's a lot of competitiveness.
I think there are a lot of Capable horses in this crop at
least. This wasn't star was brutal to
handicap and I'm so glad I got it before any of the odds were
out because I think it would have swayed how I felt about the
raise. And I think I lined up
reasonably close on that race, but I'm not exactly sure.
And so it just, it is the Risen star kind of shows.
I mean, I kept looking at him like that he can win.
Oh yeah, you can have a chance. And so I'll have to go back and
listen to episodes from this time of year.
If I always do this or if just seems more open than usual this
year and this isn't on the show sheet but you know have off and
I just follow the show sheet but after one another Derby prep
with the El Camino Royale. So real.
So there it is Black. Adder, took that one?
And yeah we just mentioned that race.
Also sure. Because Works front of the show
I feel like at Golden Gate Fields And I mean, maybe it's
just every time that I watched, but I feel like they come off
the rail so much when they come around that turn, everybody just
hope fans out and it was just the perfect ride by Edwin
Maldonado. Yes, angry.
He was brother horse your memory.
Just he was like, okay, thank you very much, like straight.
Could everybody just comes, Nobody Rides the rail there, I
feel like, and so it just Yeah, I didn't have a horse.
I besmirched him, hashtag this, Merchant drink, but, but yeah, I
just it just seemed like a classic Golden Gate and classic
for the show. If we besmirch a horse really
hardcore that horse will ya absolutely 100%.
I had him in my second spot it happens but I do agree with
Megan if that Cutters in Black letters in that spot where
MacKinnon was I think we can win the race.
Coming up the rail, I agree with Megan on that.
So it's not, you know, trip matters and those sorts of
things. But I think that MacKinnon goes
back to Turf and I think that's where that horse is.
Blackout or feels like they'll try them on the Preakness.
That's what it feels like to me. Well me that he got the
automatic bid to the well and he definitely can run there right?
I mean making can I just say that?
It looks like I am having a fantastic hair day.
Yeah, so okay, great. That's another reason to tune in
to Spotify, make sure that you could watch the show not just
listen and see my fantastic hair day, you know listen if you're
in your mid 40s and you got this kind of cabbage going on.
This is this is legit right here.
Yeah. All right.
So shredded a lot. All right, so before we get to
baby Yoda, not showing up in camo, not showing up.
I know, very upsetting, here's the deal.
And I want to, I want to talk to everybody about King Guillermo.
What do we want? Most from our forces we want
consistency and no one is more consistent than the cake.
You want a horse that runs dead? Last, that's our guy can gear.
When you watch your mouth, watch your mouth, because we've
mentioned so many times. This was a pretty, I guess it
was a big weekend. We don't, we don't really know
much. I mean, he had his hearings and
naira and Kentucky and you know ironically enough.
I just I just Happened to run in to some of our Starlight racing
connections at the tiger Tech High School there.
Because that's where all the great leaders move.
Kentucky, you go to high school and and yeah.
So we were there and I was just kind of.
Hey what's what happened today? What's going on, nobody knows
anything like it like well the people at Starlight like I
totally like don't think that they were feeding me lines like
Like they legit didn't know anything.
Well, it's really interesting with what happened in New York
because the judge ended up saying that he wasn't baffert
wasn't given due process and dismissed the lawsuit.
So that is really interesting because you know, naira acted
very quickly and didn't give him a hearing in a timely manner and
then, you know, certainly didn't give him due process and and
it's kind of a same argument here.
I don't know if that's what Craig Robinson.
Say, if a lawyer, but, you know, Churchill was very quick to be
like, nope, but we gotta be well, hold on.
There's the Churchill, there's the Kentucky Horse Racing
commission and there's naira and just clear.
Naira is a state ran an organization that has to follow
the process. Churchill Downs.
It not to do any of that. No.
No. There are private company agree.
Yeah. But that there were horses
through this. Right.
Exactly. So I curious to see if, You
know, if that's going to carry over Lily, do you have anything
to add about the bathroom situation?
Paul. You're so Janet patent is a good
follow online. She works for the Herald-Leader
in Lexington. She covers horse racing, and she
doesn't just look for reasons for horse racing to go out of
business. She actually does, it does a
good job? She's at Janet, Patton.
PA tto NHL on Twitter. If you want to go find her, she
was following these hearings. Really closely did a really nice
job, and she tweeted something like they went into closed
session. About this.
So I quote treated reminder, this is a publicly funded
organization that shouldn't be debating, this race behind the
scenes and she responded. Those are the rules and I said,
appreciate your work. The present rule is stupid,
right? It's gonna grab your fault,
Janet. But the rule is really stupid.
And so, I don't know. I like what they do up at
Hoosier Indianapolis Indiana Grand with the with the steward
came and they you get to see them making decisions about
races. I would appreciate some kind of
transparency where the cake HRC is talking about this in an open
Forum. I'm actually turns they said
that there's not after maximum-security.
They come down and they tell us they're going to give us this
press conference. And then they sit down, they
make a statement and then they get up and walk away and how we
were. So madly because we were sitting
in that press I sat around was my first derby covering it for
the part of the show and I just I just remember thinking I can't
imagine getting a paycheck from the people in front of me and
going. Oh, what's that?
He want, he wants to get out of here bleep off and that's
essentially what they did and I just there's a level of
arrogance with the k-chart. Okay, HRC because I don't think
they do a poor job race to race. Like that's not the issue here,
right? As far as stewards and things
like that, it's stuff like this be more way, more transparent
like does it matter to you? That this is an ointment or if
it's an injection, like, do you care?
Do you care that in the UC Davis?
Sexy that he's got joint that is droids are worn down.
And this is what people say about betamethasone is that it
helps with joint inflammation. If they're overworking the way
by using this letter to you doesn't, if it doesn't, if
people are way off on that, but say it out loud.
That's fine. To be fair though, they're, I
don't think they said that his joints were necessarily like
significantly worse than your average score horse.
Because I mean most horses would have joint issues.
Just like if you were a An athlete, especially if you're
played Sports really young and you started young, you know,
you're going to have some degeneration on those joints.
That's just an automatic. So I don't know that that
boredom say this matters as much, so if you are on the case
first it wouldn't matter to you, right?
I would love it if you were to public forum about it, that's my
point, right? And so that's all I'm getting at
is like, do stuff like that matter to, you know, we don't
care about that. That's not what we're talking
about. If you were hardly G taken
Throwing Shade and Louis, listen, do you know how good of
a hockey player Louis rubella? Us.
All right. Come up now.
Love to Yeah, maybe I will we can watch you.
Play hockey highlight reel. I'll give you some problems for
that. If you should drink dad week, I
would totally come to this. I'll Bundy talking about his
high school days. Here we go.
Talked about this before on the show and I may give you know who
Al Bundy is. No that's not the 1090 guy who
like murdered everybody? No no you know this you know has
J Pritchard from Modern Family. That's Al Bundy.
So that's not that's Ed. Ed O'Neill.
Ed O'Neill. Yes.
His name on Modern family's Jay Pritchard.
Yeah. But where does other name come
from? Al Bundy?
Was married with Children like through the show.
That made him famous. I got it following that Sherwood
Roseanne changed sickhouse driver.
Anyways. You know, I would never play
hockey again in my life, because I discovered a couple of years
ago, from a doctor that I had bruises on my brain that will
never heal. Playing ice hockey.
And and it affected the chemistry of my body in a way
that was overwhelming and put me in therapy.
So, I stopped playing ice hockey for those reasons.
A, my kids will never play Ice Hockey, so there you go.
So there you go. Okay.
So just just video highlights or much safer.
I didn't play for into college and I have nine documented
concussion just from hockey right now I have three
Documented ones from outside of hockey, suggestion to the kids
out there, don't have a dozen concussions just for local
honey. Just a small gate.
He's ready to get onto the baby Yoda highlights.
But, you know, here we are in the 50-point races.
So it is, we are on battered trainer, wash to see what
happens if these owners, you know, start to shift these
horses to other trainers or not and if a decision is made.
So I, I think things get very interesting over the next four
weeks, but let's move on to Ooh, watch baby Yoda, get beat, go
ahead and play it back on Shay they go to the front up on the
outside. Baby Yoda going to try to come
after that one is they turn to the top of the stretch Bank on
shape. A biota putting swings into
action on the outside also trying to run on Cajun Casa
Nova, a final Furlong left to go, Bank on Shay, here's baby
Yoda on the outside. These two, at the 16th hole,
putting just in behind it with Cajun Casa Nova, baby Yoda, with
a fight on his hands down toward the inside Bank on shape.
Maybe Yoda Bank, on Shay, they come to the wire pink on Shea
came back. Man, what a battle down the
stretch. I mean that was pretty
impressive. So Bank on shave pulls it, out
by the nose. What do you think about baby?
Yoda said, you know, obviously it's a gelding, right?
So that's the kind of horses we like around here.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just run forever.
Since I told you that I had been ground cherry on top.
I told you Belmont will never win if I am watching the race.
So So I told you. Yeah I mean it was a better
performance than I then, you know, then some of his other
races here recently. So that was good at least for
back in winning ways here. So the fact that he was able to
win a Stakes race to is appreciated because he only one
allowance races and it he was starting to feel a little who
was that horse hidden hidden connection with our the nude.
America's that that's kind of what this was starting to feel
like and maybe is also. So like is he as good as we
thought he was from that one time?
I don't know. Yeah, I mean to be fair baby
Yoda's last win was in September and only on Trace.
Right. So right?
All right. Huge number connection had that
huge number and the Flop. And this guy did it on the fast
track. But regardless, from the Belmont
campus, he feels like the new hidden connection to me.
All right, so Louis anything to add on baby yoga, consistent
Guillermo, dude, every year that we do the this show, Have at
least one or two horses that have a Star Wars reference, and
to do better, like, decent horses that are running, steaks
level. So, kudos to those owners out
there. Keep the Star Wars reference is
coming like these race cars. Now, something Star Wars related
and then we had Gladys and that allowance race.
The full sister to Rachel Alexandra.
Ran like it. Rough what you like with the
Rachel Alexandra States? Is today are this?
We're going to talk about today. It's not actually today, right?
Is that it Everyone to know that that race is named after a
former Philly named Rachel Alexandra.
You're so good with those that I know, I know I just I had to
pull it out. Let's don't pull it out.
So what we're going to do today, what we're going to do today is
Louise going to give us a quick just update on or not a preview
of world. So just kind of a rundown and
then we're going to do some handicapping on the pick-6.
Actually, not the pick-6, I apologize.
But there are six races that we're going.
Talk about out at the fairgrounds and 44 reason
started a so Louis, why don't you go with your moral preview
here? Yeah, it's just right.
It's General. George de Laurel Park, it's
actually a cool Stakes day. I think they have either seven
or eight steaks on the card. There's two great trees to close
at the end of the card which is nice.
They're making the horrific decision to run a five thousand
dollar claim were at the end of the card.
Shame on you Maryland Jockey Club.
This is not how you should be doing things.
Look at how the fairgrounds is running their leg pick five
which I could. I'm with John Dooley does start.
There is actually pick five. It's just not in the form
earlier forms. I'm sure it shows up now but
like an actual answer from someone as to why they do that.
Because the only answer I've ever heard was that it allows
for traffic but like no one's at the racetrack.
Like let's be real with ourselves, you know?
Yeah. Is that really a thing or I
don't know. Yeah, we did it once and so
we're always going to do it forever which seems very
on-brand for horse racing. Yeah.
So like but I got a nice reply from John Dooley on Twitter.
That? Yes, there is a like big five.
He kind of it was a little like yes.
Dumbass of course you have a late pick five but it's not of
the form so wasn't trying to be a smart or dumb ass in that
case. There's in the form there's the
listed in all steak steak for but the second leg of that is a
low-interest the like it's fine. These are things I'm against so
anyways, but at Laurel started the late pick, five starts with
Race Six, like think it does. Does the Nellie Morse and that's
the first single the day. The six Miss Leslie is in that
race, Maryland royalty their Angel Cruz and Claudio Gonzalez.
She's by far the best horse in that race.
So you could go from playing that pick for which has think
the takeout rate is 11% higher. The pick out the takeout rakes
and pick five on the Maryland, circuit are super low, I either
12 or 14 percent, I want to lean toward 12, very, very low.
And then in re7 I spread a little bit there. 1 3 4 & 5
that's in. The John be Campbell for
four-year-olds -16 going around the track, all the way and 1345
there that does include the nine to five favorite in the one,
which is working on a dream, but I do think you do need to spread
a little bit more here because I do think alario.
For example, the Maryland bread has a serious shot there and I
really do like Treasure Trove of 5 in that race.
Moving on the next race is race 8, which is the grade 3 Barbara
fritchie. So, this is for failures and
mayor's 74 a long. So back-to-back grade threes at
7:00 for a long as they're in Maryland.
I do spread this race as well. The two, three, four and eight.
Saint taken half the horses here, including glass ceiling,
Kev Kev Allosaurus, and who else are they Regal retort in?
Then, of course, the eighth is belt of the north.
I did all of these before the numbers were out.
So I do have a 75 favorite in that race.
If you wanted to shorten up and try to use that sort of find,
that's fine. I don't think you should do that
because in the next race is a horse named cord maker.
He does is run in Maryland and win.
He's the to erase 9 in the great three, General George.
He is shortening up to seven furlongs.
You'll notice his numbers at 7:00 for loans are not great,
but he has tempered 26 lifetime at at Laurel has won his last
three at Laurel at a mile and an eighth of a mile.
It is 16th and at a mile. So the horse seems to not care
how far he's going at Laurel. He just wins again.
This is Carrasco. And it actually in this case
with Ronnie Jenkins they hit 13 percent together at Laurel
limited sample size can vary. Very good.
And then in the last, I'm actually going to Shorter in
that. 5,000 claimer, that has 75 letters after a qualifying, you
for the race with the five and the six.
What are the odds in their 05-22 and 825?
Look at me, agreeing with the Maryland morning, winemaker.
There you go. Danny deep Cuts is a New York
bread and then Congress Hall will be my two in the last race
my initial ticket. If you'll put that up, JD is 16
bucks, you can build off of that but it's a very playable leg
pick five. I would prefer to play that like
I said, because I do think Miss Leslie comes through in that
Like, it makes that pick five with that lower.
Take out much more plentiful than the pit for of course, the
General George always run on President's Day weekend and is
named after General George Washington and Nelly Morse.
By the way, very interesting fetch testing fact about Millie
more. Signaling Wars was a champion
Philly and Maryland won the Preakness as a filly in 1924 but
also won the Pimlico Oaks which later became the black-eyed,
Susan, obviously I'm assuming, they weren't ran, you know, back
the same day or back-to-back days, so but yeah.
So, there you go. I'm guessing.
I don't know for sure, but that Nellie Morse is probably the
only horse. That is either won the Preakness
and the Pinnacle of / black-eyed Susans.
So, it would be great if she wanted it like that, like 12:35
post time and they came back and ran in the practice at 4:30 like
just the same day. Let me using old-school Horse.
Let's go. Yeah.
And so, it's kind of fitting that you have an ally Morse,
affiliate won the Preakness. And we got the Rachel, Alexander
who, which is another filial. One pig is, kind of, kind of a
big day, that way. So, all right, let's go on to
Fair, Rounds and we are going to start with race seven.
It is a fuck about this. What this is about five and half
for a long time. The turf.
I love that the foot that they put.
It's about five natural enzyme cannot get enough of that.
It's a lot of those. Yeah, it's very, I understand
that. It's very Norland.
Yeah, you know, the colonel power is what we're going with
this 100,000 are raised for four year, olds and up Megan, you
wanna go first? Sure.
So I have a to her It's just might on top big big fan of
Michelle level and I think she's an excellent conditioner and
this horse is super exciting. Does that the really good horses
change of control, being one of them but just might is a horse
that she actually bred herself part of.
And so she's pretty much got to make most of the decisions for
this horse. And he just seems to be a bit of
a wind machine in this particular race.
He actually looks like he could have he could be the speediest
of the bunch. You seems like Where's that go
to the front and be happy saying there, where there's a lot of
kind of late, closing sprinters in this particular field.
So I actually think the race shape sets up very well.
And, you know, this is a horseshoe that seems like you
can run on any kind of surface which I really appreciate
because he's got actually quite a few wins and stakes races on
the dirt. In fact, the one at Colonial in
the Chesapeake, you lost a shoe somewhere in the race.
I'm still ran like lights out that day but they a big fan of
that horse. I definitely have that one on
there. R.
I also put the eight horse and my top picks trained by eduard
Von who recently started training horses here in the u.s.
He's from England. He's he's I guess he's, I think
he's been here for maybe a year or so but this is a horse who
comes from off the pace. He's going to need something to
run at with the exception. If you throw out the race on the
synthetic last time at Sherwood Park was you clearly hated.
It brings you to an allowance race where he had a hop start.
So we didn't have any luck there and then one more line down, It
was in the wood bird at the moment where he ran against
golden, pal, extravagant kid, who of course, one in Dubai and
County final who will talk about or I'm sorry who came back to
win his next race there. So that was a pretty stacked
field of horses and I don't know what the odds are there.
To be fair. I had to have this well before
the odds were out, but I think inhalation with Adam biscuits, I
could come back here off the layoff hopefully and show us
something pretty exciting. So I have the the 28 and then
possibly the one cow and And of course you've asked me said
who's burned me so many times. I just don't know what to do
with that one. Blue, by the way, your
inhalation is 22, 1. That is a Megan special right
there. That's right.
Megan's long shot. Just myself in this race.
Only lost in the last eight races. 123456789 Thrace is
either. Disqualification or at
Keeneland. And so I'm not holding out
against the horse. I think this is a pretty obvious
single. If you're using this in some
kind of sequence, actually a coward in the second spot, I
think that a 2-1 finish is pretty likely here.
I am, very intrigued by Megan's inhalation pick, which I do not
agree with. However, now that doesn't
Because in order to find a horse, a lot of the time, you
know, not all the time, don't at me but like add a big price like
that, especially when you have a heavy favorite, one of two
things needs to happen. Either the horse, had some
significant legitimate trouble that you can read in the running
lines and just cross off those performances and then he's able
to step up or something's going to happen in the race.
Like somebody misses the start or something like that, may
falls off, whatever. But that's where I think you
find kind of those big bombs in these types of spot.
So, a day like this, nice cat. Thank you.
I think look at my pink Post-It note.
It's reminding me what to do for the goat that just gave birth
yesterday. That's good.
So anyways, don't let million babies are the kids.
Hey, speaking of which? So let's talk a little bit
because, you know, we talk all the time about Classic on class
and just might to Louise point, you know, is One all kinds of
lists stakes races really the once that horse steps up in a
graded Stakes company, the horse struggles a little bit.
I mean, it's a great example of, you know, just why we say class
gone class in my estimation, we this is a listed Stakes horse
forms very well to listed six horse and there's nothing wrong
with. Its had a great career and it's
made a lot of money but that's just what it is.
But yeah, absolutely. Force has been in graded stakes
races. There's been a lot of speed.
Sure, spots horse who doesn't festering on the front end.
We see that time and time again. I think about the race with
skansen and are no, no one's gone.
Someone at Churchill Downs, right?
You had those two speed horses that were each other down.
And so I think that can happen with this type of a horse and
did in the three greatest takes that I can see on the form and
the horses that were in, those races were Bound for nowhere
imprimis or super super. Oh no, huge Fields.
Yeah, you know. Federal Reserve like these are,
these are huge names. What's the Dominique's and
striving cave winsterhammerman? Yeah, I d-- is incapable of
getting a graded Stakes when I just think the particular grade
stakes races at the source of Benin have been pretty
challenging. Yeah, yeah.
Also, actually, because magic Megan mentioned speed Cowan is
not a go to the league kind of horse.
So just my doesn't have a horse to its inside.
That's going to want to go to the Lis.
Just B. Going to be able to get that.
He has, he's one on the front end before but They get it says
preferred reptiles before. Yeah, yeah and he does break
from the rail here so maybe that's what they decide to do.
Especially if he's gonna have to use and try to win.
I agree. Yeah.
A lack of speed in here, but but I think just might as a little
bit more comfortable doing that. All right, let's move on now to
race 9 which is the Albert install Memorial hundred
thousand are raised for Phillies and Mayors four-year-olds up.
This is about amount of 16th and we have the Catholic Choice with
the one hoarsely Pass the Plate. So is that who you're going
with? So one of my favorite 2021
moments, excuse me, was actually a household jr.
Winning this race last year. It's not a handicapping.
Note is just nice to see ya cheap things and to do it.
It's positive. Personal to them is really cool.
So I just remember the interview after the race and his obvious
legitimate emotion about it. And it was one of my favorite
moments last year and help other people haven't forgotten it, but
Pass the Plate. Does get first those here and
I'm gonna chronologically apparently, but don't take it.
Take up this mirror 16 races. Not at this track, she has two
institutions and five races. One last time I've listed steaks
at this distance, she hits the board two-thirds of the time
over her career. Regardless of track, should a
great Runner obviously. Include the eight is a meat.
I don't actually know the numbers on.
This will be fried Hernandez. Junior Sarita, vo their General
numbers are good, but SRI is yet to really fight her footing at
the stakes level. And so this could be a nice
break through runner for her ran second last time in listed
company at a mile previously, one.
At a mile and a sixteenth. She gets a 22% office shortly
off. So this is probably an include
as well. I'm 18 in a shorter ticket in
the stall, May? Yeah.
No, I am fine. Brothers, I have the three on
top abscond for a connealy and Adam.
That's because I think the script might have needed that
last race she was in against Pass the Plate.
In fact, she was favored over her but she lacked a bit of room
and I think that this is a horse that probably needed that start
in order to get back to her best running.
And she did that too. In May of last year, she came
back off a little bit of a layoff.
She had it, okay. Third of the janitor, really
close fourth place, like, showing off by 3/4 of a length.
So, it was a blanket finish integrated Stakes race.
So, I think this is a horse that prefers s up as we would say,
went crazy and Australian other places.
I think this is her comeback race here and she's able to get
back to her winning ways I like, The fact that Adam dusk has been
on her a couple of times, so hopefully, they've kind of
created a bit of a report I agree with you on a Miche.
I give her a little bit of an excuse.
I think that she she started off her career on the dirt.
They tried her sprinting then they try to get him on the 16th
at Keeneland excuse me and she didn't like the dirt at also,
like, okay fine. She means the Air Force since
then, she's only had one bad effort and it was at Keeneland
over the good listed good at Keeneland, which we know is
wetter than most. Two other extract listed good
because Keeneland firm already has a little bit of moisture to
it. So, when Gail listen, as a good
track, curve course, it's it's got some rain but I did look at
the weather forecast for Saturday, in New Orleans and it
is supposed to be sunny and beautiful.
And so I think it should be firms.
I actually think the conditions look like they're going to set
up perfectly for a mission. I'm willing to forgive any off
performances that she's had because again, I think they're
pretty legitimate excuses. So I really like a mission here
as well. I thought about possibly the
nine horse, I hear you or Brandon Walsh and Tyler Gaffney
own. This one, one last time out here
at Fairgrounds, It Was a Race that was over, the sloppy
racetrack was taken off of the turquoise but has plenty of
experience on the grass. She races background Turfway
Park, sad. Some do an okay performance over
the synthetic. So, since Brennan has got a
picked up the training on this horse, the numbers have improved
on average, with previously, trained by Michael said.
Um, but And took over here. And I just think he's kind of
figured her out pretty well. So I'm curious to see as Tyler
gets aboard for the first time since Brendan is trained.
The horse. He did Rider to a couple of nice
finishes one Juice drink by Mike siddim.
I'm hoping is that we see another another gear come out of
this one. I will say I wanted to go back
to abscond real quick the to I hear every excuse me if Scott I
hear everything Megan is saying I think eventually a horse that
hasn't That one I think it's going on three years.
It just gets used to being in second and third.
It's just it's just what they get used to even if it's better
company. And I know we're dropping into
lower company than what she's been running it for sure.
That's not, that's not even a debate.
And I understand why Megan likes the horse second off.
The layoff 5% with Eddie connealy stakes races 6% with
Eddie connealy. That's why I left him scarred
off of my tickets. I just wanted people to
understand that. Yeah, I just think I hear you on
that. I just think that the minor
placing Just that she has run at all those that were clearly
above where she needed doesn't run.
I think those third by half a length, s by 3/4 length, by 3/4
length, I think those performances in those graded.
Stakes races are good enough to beat this building a list of
sanctuary. All right, so we're going to
move on to The Mineshaft named after 2003 horse of the year who
ironically did not win a Breeders Cup race finished.
Second in the Stephen Foster I think he even finished second in
this state race when it was the world away.
But this is. So this is named after March.
After the 2003 horse the Year, this is a mile in a 16th.
This one's not about. I think they've got this one
down pat that it is a amount of 16 is great.
Three 250,000 are purse for four year, olds and up and who do you
like in this one? Make I have the five Mi d as my
top pick. This is one for Chad Brown
coming. Lay off hasn't raised since
November of last year and that was a win in a list of stakes
race Chad Brown with that. Kind of layoffs.
Comes back to win at 25% horses that of on their last start 26 %
j''r races, 25% route races 26% graded, stakes races a, measly
18%. So, you know, if you want to
talk about the trader percentages there, Lois, this
one certainly is an obvious choice in that regard.
You know, the again, the one kind of off performance for this
source of view. Are willing to cross something
out or two, rather was a seven for a long Sprint race and the
grade one Travers, but this horse ran up against essential
quality. Who was just named three world
champion, male horse slots, we get the eclipse award.
So I think that this is certainly a field that this
horse as long as he comes back, getting ready to go which the
statistics say he will from the barn of Chad Brown.
I think that's absolutely your horse to beat in here.
I thought about the 10 untreated as well for Todd Pletcher, kind
of the same thing. You know, had that race in The
grass and just ran nowhere. And then came back and had I do
two wins at Aqueduct, which is good.
But I think some of the races that some other horses or that
the whores, I just mentioned, ran and before are a bit more
impressive to me, but still one that I thought about and then
the for is Olympiad. But again, Belmont doesn't win
when I watch. So Megan, who won this race last
year? I do remember.
Maxfield Maxfield? Yeah, good old Max.
Hey, Megan turn your computer off.
It's been fun. If you can't get a Max, real
question, right? You should probably just go to
bed. That's right.
That's right. Yeah, you're done.
So, you didn't mention, I have on top.
I don't love this race. I For every way to afford to,
press all in this race because I do think a tunnel horses can win
here, really? I went ahead.
I put a base on top because I think he's a horse for the
course. All of his best run.
He's been at Fairgrounds, the Foley numbers are not
overwhelming but he and Brian Hernandez, Junior hitting it,
32% a limited sample size of Fairgrounds obeys.
This is just the type of horse, to keep that number up, I'll
include him, I then have. And then I talked about the ten
untreated. He's an interesting shipper for
Todd Pletcher, went Two terms to break is made didn't do well in
the Bluegrass. They do right by the horse to
give them the time off, seven months comes back he's back to
himself to turn winds at Aqueduct.
Two of them should like the surface at Fairgrounds compared
to those deep goes and you know in Queens wait hold on a second.
Isn't that isn't Aqueduct? The mile of one turn yes but the
he Wente a twice? He went there.
Okay? Nevermind.
Yes. Oh he's only gone wrong turn.
So excuse me and in my life. A, you're totally right.
My notes, say to one turn, Mi wins at Aqueduct and I made it.
I apologize for my little, my notes are right.
And so he should like to service the fairgrounds compared to the
Deep, go and queens, Bluest Eyes, the board, he's an include
for me. The horse between them is the
nine. Happy American, who's over five
at Fairgrounds, but should have one last time out the listed
steaks over the distance over the same course Superfast 143
over. That course, I think you should
be an include here as well first time booking for this horse, for
all Drew is on midcourt. Much more favorable company than
what? That horse has been running.
It much more favorable, I think he's capable of a huge number,
and then I wrote last the best, New York shipper is MI e the
five Jose Ortiz. And Chad Brown beat speakers,
corner. And dad are the last two times
out. Excuse me, one of which was a
mile and an eighth Aqueduct, which is two turns.
What if one by a bunch, if they were at the distance that the
running on Saturday, he actually slow down at the end of that
race. I think you can include.
So I went 8510 N 9 and 7. I see what you're saying about
abscond, but I'm going to apply that to midcourt.
Because midcourt, I'd suggest I can't with this horse races
back, your wasn't allowed to race again, at Santa Anita,
which basically was like a claiming race, and then it's
some of those Santa Anita like graded stakes races that we
classify here on the horizon, happy hours, like not really
like graded Stakes light, you know, the truck.
So is this a great? Great, the wind before that was
in 2024. That horse Olympiad is the
favorite in this race. I'm just saying.
Anywhere near 722. So I'm here that this is not a
great three. It's like a good.
I mean, grade 3, minus FS, right?
Okay. Yeah.
Let's there's some horses that are I think if either Olympiad
or Mi D wins in this race and then goes on to do something
else, they could actually become a great three, okay?
But at the current time is great for you guys, there's a great
there. - yeah, let's move on to to race 11, which is the
fairgrounds at Fairgrounds. This is a great 350-thousand
dollar purse for four year, olds and up.
And we're going to How to see a repeat winner here potentially
for captivating Moon, who tries to, who did win this race last
year, but is coming in here, 20 to 1.
So the horse who won this race last year, is in this race at
12:40 make. And what do you think about what
you think about this? I had the three horse as 12:48,
as they're signing - races and here, I mean, maybe, yeah, I
there's a couple things I like about this horse.
I mean, you are Are getting a technical drop down in class
because this horse was in the grade 1 Hollywood Derby.
This is a Grade Three, when a mile and an eighth last time and
we're going about a mile and a. So those two things, light up,
Louisville work out. Yeah.
Love the workout reports for this horse, in the past couple
of drills, I just think he comes into the bullet work over there
on the turf course. He works really fast over the
main track as well. You know, the one maybe
vulnerability for this one is that it does seem like he's a
closing. So he's going to need a little
bit of speed to run at but I think that Brendon Walsh can
certainly bring horses back off of a bit of a layoff and I'm
really curious to see what Tyler aboard again, you know, if we
can get another another gear out of this one.
So I really like Santa and at 12:48 I like it even more.
This was the race Louis that I thought all right this would be
my spread race so I have the three six, seven ten, possibly
the nine. So the six is ever run in the US
before. Chad Brown trains.
Who are they? Ortiz rides first time.
Lasix again, all the things that I said before which had brought
him, his great percentages apply here.
So I'm going to include that one.
The seven Halo again for, right? Come on, we're going for Steve
asmussen. I thought about withdrawal
Rosario who wrote this horse through a really good sign I'm
only I'm never gonna get it right.
Only only two races on the turf course but that includes a first
and a second and it's had plenty of races over the Woodbine
track. So It certainly seems like he's
built for this type of race. And then sorry the ten horse the
margin for Todd Pletcher was really intriguing because I
think we're getting back to a bit more of a manageable level
and spot for this one. Yeah, that's right.
And I really didn't know what to do with the nine-point by me.
You know, the one kind of big win for this horse.
Technically, this is a grade one winner but it was in the first D
and formerly known as the Arlington million, right?
And at a mile and I just didn't think that was a Rate field.
So I mean bikers on. So that's Megan.
Do you know who Steve Largent is?
There's no way, no way receiver for the Seattle Seahawks as he
and daddy says he's a senator. Now what I did can we just point
out that I was on the Bobby V show and talked about football
and chose the Rams to win and they want.
So like I am currently one for one with you had a 50/50 shot.
We're buying drinks, everybody that humblebrag.
Okay. I am undefeated curly with my
other sports beside horse racing.
What do you guys say about the fair girl?
Undefeated never lost. I um Island out three horses
here. Three, all three of them are in
Megan, stop for cool. Actually landed on, Adamo 26,
Chad Brown hits at 39% with horses running for the first
time in North America. That's stupid.
And Lasix for the first time 36%
and then I large it in the second spot, second off.
The layoffs training, very nicely, plenty size, all the
numbers make sense. I think this, excuse me, this
horse gets a chance to get back into a more normal routine here.
We're on a second timeout. I have the three Santa's.
Well, super lightly really, what is done something?
I really love. Of braces magnet in the
integrand wins. It allowed to Keeneland and
loses. The Hollywood Derby by a neck in
an absolute charge. And so, a recent 57 s 54 a
longer workout had. I gone first, I would have said,
Megan will tell you the horse wasted all its energy in that
workout but Megan apparently doesn't agree that it's okay.
That you think sometimes horses get too Keen for work out and
they run their race in the work out rather than physically.
If you see it I haven't seen this work out but I don't think
Brenda Walsh would let He has that, he's an excellent writer
himself. And I've mentioned, many times,
you know, is staff that I some of which I rode with and had,
no, are very excellent up. Pull it up to anybody.
Anybody can get taken off. Whereas on a horse certainly,
but I don't think that was the case.
I think he is like, to me the workout pattern dreams that this
horse is sitting on a huge race. They have him heat up and ready
to go. Because look, I mean, he's race
or freezers want to run and he's off since November of last year.
I mean this force is Like tearing down the walls of the
stall to run and that's what I interpret that as, but to be
fair, I didn't see the workout with my own eyes Katie points
out the very obvious here. We besmirched almost by not
mentioning them two Emmys, the 11 is the favorite here.
We did not mention that for so that means either one way to win
by Evan please. And also, we've mentioned any
Grant a couple times and we got to give a shout out to our girl
for ya. Burping, the baby new bowl.
Yeah. So and I sent her Her a text and
Rachel text and said, hey, good job.
Mama and like, she Stills, like connected to her phone.
I got like a risky enough for seconds.
Absolutely. She's probably listening right
now. I mean, lets, you know,
breastfeeding breastfeeding and listening at the same time.
Yeah, get a life. Rachel.
So let's move on to speaking of Rachel, to the Rachel Alexandra
stakes, and listen, I mean, this whore, this race never produces
any good horses, you know. Last year we had this horse
named Clara are be travel column.
I don't know who those two horses.
I never finished third in this race to the idiom and finite
source and guinea are priests who won this race, ma knowing
who's bottomley girl and her that that you know.
So this is a, this is obviously like this is, this is the
coming-out party for Phillies all the time.
Any horse that wins this race. You've got to take serious as a
not only just for the Oaks, but just one of those fillies, you
becomes. A mayor who's just going to be a
dominant force in the sport. So and of course if you've
listened to us at all we love the Phillies because they race
longer, right? So we like to see horses that
you can get behind a really follow.
So Louis, who's that horse going to be this year.
In the Rachel Alexander loaded field here wanted to point out,
shout out to the folks at the fairgrounds 300,000 dollar per
year. You want to get more secure
races, that's what is really good.
I'm very excited for this hard. I agree with you, I'll go ahead,
I'll take the BC juvenal alumna, the 11 hidden connection.
I think she ended up the favor three, two, one Calhoun
Gutierrez connection, 37% sizable sample at Fairgrounds
Works have been good and consistent at Fairgrounds more
than a hunch than anything, but she's already won over two turns
in his bio Curlin stallion out of an awesome again, mayor, I
think she's in include, obviously Trader robertinho
Roberts, you know. Diadora has the Before dream
list, who is apparently a six to one give her some time off.
After winning the to turn grade to Goldenrod at Churchill Downs.
He and Ramona baskets hit 34 percent in a huge sample, has a
ton of experience in high-level steak, so I think she's an
include as well. And then another six gosh yes,
six to eight 1821 horse in the one lakh Reet I think she's a
likely winner. This is a Steve asmussen.
Joel Rosario combination, all the numbers make sense for her.
I think she's likely part of the equation.
I don't think spreading more than that is silly at all.
I think it's wide open but those are my top three at least eleven
four and one. I'm very excited that you didn't
mention one of my favorite horses in here and possibly my
top, pick at 8 to 1 and that is North County and North County.
And I remember seeing her in the paddock, she first of all is
such Athletic Cisco feed bills. I didn't know who she was or
whatever and it's me, honestly, I do.
Well, it was just an allowance race.
I guess I wasn't looking like a big race that I was paying
attention to and try and look for work but it was just one of
those sources that caught my eye and I turned around.
I was like, who is that? And then she immediately
proceeded to rear and was like giving her two handlers he was
trapped on either side like seriously hard time for Paul
Madden was doing everything. This isn't for Brendan was doing
everything he could to just keep her from just Hissing.
She's just fly off the ground and leave feeling like leaving
from the Blue Grass Airport. And she I remember that
everything up to her and I thought, man, she looks so
Sophie, this is probably an excellent turf turf course
rather. And she was, I think pretty good
price at a, she's like 12 to 1. So I put a couple bucks down on
her anyways, and she won by two lengths that day, but it was one
of those that she, when she finished, she had so much left
in the tank and you can see it from her.
And then, so she comes. Back and she shows up in a dirt
race. And again, I'm kind of surprised
by this because I thought this was like, super scope eater
Force, you know, long distance, whatever.
And I think that applies as far as the distance is concerned,
but the fact that she was able to prove herself on the dirt
surface here at Fairgrounds to me is really exciting.
So she is super athletic and I think she's definitely one to
watch here. So I'm I have her date someone.
I had the nine awake at midnight as a possible intercept here.
Doug, O'Neill coming from the West Coast.
I don't know. You know, I'm kind of hesitant
to take some of those, but why not us horse?
You didn't mention Louis was the seven turn her loose?
And this is the one that's moving over from Turf to jerk.
So kind of something similar, but we haven't seen her prove
herself on dirt. Yet, that being said, Brad Cox
wins at 33% wooden horses from those services.
So that's certainly something to take note of and then I, I agree
with you, possibly look at Hidden connection and then,
look, Crete, who I think is an up-and-coming star.
I'd probably put, like, went ahead of hidden connection, but
I maybe it's just a hunch thing for me and because I physically
saw this or some was so taken by her, but I'm probably gonna bet
a nice would bet on North County, and, and hope for the
best. Yes.
All right, we're gonna move on to the Risen star Stakes of this
is where the first 50 point, Kentucky Derby prep race is.
And it Is in the fairgrounds risen Star, by the way, probably
the most accomplished of Secretariat's.
Offsprings. Yep.
And was one of those horses that getting him to the Kentucky
Derby as the favor in 1988, lost a winning colors, but went on to
win the Preakness and Belmont. And and when after the Belmont
got hurt in the Belmont, never race again.
So this is the Risen star to, you know, two legs of the Triple
Crown for Risen star and we got another really good field here.
I'm sure including like we Drive, slow down, Andy, who
knocked off Messy, as a two-year-old, and Louis, and
small Happy who we talked about earlier as well, mandolin won
this last year, obviously didn't pretty good, the Kentucky Derby
himself. Who do we like in this one,
Megan? Oh me, I first of all, we have
to mention the eight horse smile, happy obviously 722.
Plenty of people like this one trained by Kenny Peak.
I've been pointing for this race for quite awhile corollaries,
going to retain them out there that Kentucky Jockey Club.
We mentioned this earlier has turned out to be such a
productive, race smile. Happy want it by I think pretty
decent. Yeah three and a quarter length
so a decent margin there just game running from out of it but
able to just pass I think tired horses but certainly some
talented horses as we have seen across the causeway who we
mentioned. One the same F Davis finished
second and the white everio who was What do you mean in Florida?
Was the quite a bit, and I certainly think that he is a
reasonable favorite in here, but I think I might try maybe to
beat him with Papa cat. Who I have recently become a fan
of. That's a good one.
There with Tyler Gap. Lyon in the irons for the very
first time. He rides extremely well for Mark
hasse, we've seen them team up. Tyler fan on the show
apparently, but but see them team up many times on many good
horses. I watched the last couple of
races and you know, this works finished behind Corniche in the
American pharoah, the grade One race at Santa Anita, the
Breeders Cup juvenile finished. Second there to for nice as well
and as already done quite a bit of shipping in his career to so
you know, he basically 31 on debut, goes to Del Mar and
immediately in the best pal, he wins there then in a Del Mar
Futurity, he Was for that day. And I think maybe he just needed
that, that seven furlongs is a little top, and obviously a
grade 1, but then he performs so well, me other great ones after
that, in the lecompt, I thought that he fought on actually
pretty well. He finished third in that race,
but he really battled for quite a while and I don't think the
writer switch sticks on them very much in that stretch.
And so, I'm curious. Two things.
One with a different writer here if we're going to see an
improvement but also just the fact that this horse is going to
run second off the layoffs and we talked about that quite a bit
and I think that could be especially as he's a
three-year-old now, you know, in his second race as a
three-year-old. I think this is probably horse
that's matured and the best way. So I I've kind of talked myself
into really liking Papa Cap and then the only other one.
I'll mention is the five epicenter for Steve asmussen.
We just see him ask me how he I'm never gonna it's not going
to happen. I'm still gonna scratch
everything run. So many of his good horses.
He brings his a string down to county fairgrounds, and this
seems like a logical, you know, next big star for him.
He really hasn't done much wrong.
His only bad effort came when he was sprinting, but since this
horse has been in drought in route races rather he's done
very well. And by the way, shout out to not
this time who has like an unbelievable amount of very
talented horses, very talented three-year-olds and others that
we have seen, Here recently, I feel like every time I'm talking
about horse that I really like, especially on the Derby and Oaks
trailer at graded stakes races, it's about this time.
So well done for tailor-made that Giant's causway line.
Could be a problem. It's legit.
There's a lot of good reading in there for sure it is easy to
look at what of REO. Classic cosmetic.
Go oh wow, smile. Happy won that race.
He should be on top. Yeah, I think the choice for the
better here is you either include a more.
You try to take a stand Megan didn't match it, a horse who
shipping and the old, why not us opportunity here in the 10, slow
down. Andy the Cal bread, who beat
Messier by overtaking him in the stress, the stretch, excuse me,
hello Sal look messy. A doesn't love Lo Sal, but any
horse who beats Messier is good by me.
And so I've actually got slow down Andy in my top spot,
epicenters of my second spot, a decent second in the Lo comp.
So he's already got the The form there.
I think he's getting a better Works.
Makes sense to connections. Make sense.
That's an include for me, hiya pop a cap in the third because I
like Tyler getting them out there, a bunch of hitting the
board, just not quite there. Tyler's the kind of jock that
gets horses over the top and so that to me is an obvious
include. So those are my four.
If you're going to play this race the said 51 and then the
eight. But to me you either play the
eight. Or do you play?
Not the 84 for many purposes. All right, so sorry on Andy
making just out of curiosity. I mean definitely doesn't have
the speed figures at some of the other horses, anything else that
you would knock on slow down? Andy Oh, I mean we've seen some
nice horses. Come out of, the Los Alamitos
Futurity so I don't want to necessarily.
Yeah, message me, yeah no I'm beside her nice words, but like,
yeah, right. But oftentimes, yeah, those low
salaries is just don't compute Turf, you know, a lot of jockeys
will take off that meat. That's kind of the like vacation
time. A lot of trainers will like rest
their horses because you're getting Ready for opening day,
Saint Anita whatever. So I'm always kind of leery of
putting a lot of weight on that particular meat, but you know,
why not us? Okay, well Lois, I hope you have
a great trip when you come home. Did Lily freeze, I think Louis
did freeze. He's like a really serious.
Yeah, I just thought that was his face.
Yeah. Megan.
I'm glad the siren go off. I hope you.
I hope you all have an uneventful evening, thank you.
Well, I think my husband is feeding the horses but I already
fed them again earlier so they should still be happy for sure.
All right, take care of that. and, and Louis bad happens.
I hope you have a great trip. I don't know if we can hear me
or not. All right.
Let's to pay the tab and get out of here.
We are the horse racing. Happy hour.
We'll talk to you next time.
