Alright, welcome to another Edition.
A September edition of the laundry.
Happy hour. Like in Davao here with Lugar
bow and Dennis trustee, who else called trustee trustee picks.
If you're familiar handicapper, extraordinary live from the
Pacific classic of his bedroom. It's so close.
You can see the Labor Day weekend.
September 21st Equinox. Oh, I'm an equinox, man, but
you're an equinox guy. Okay, have an equinox, man.
Yes, the only thing I don't reason I don't like that is
because that means like winter doesn't start until like right
before Christmas and it's not how I feel about it.
Yeah. So you have Thanksgiving as part
of winter. I think of I think September
October November is fall, December January, February is
winner. Okay, the meteor all that's
meteorological versus astronomical Seasons.
Like this is like the kind of great stuff you get on the horse
racing, happy hour. And at the end of the day it
doesn't really matter. I just know that falls.
Like when the weather is, when you wake up, you know, that
chill in the air, and you can like wear shorts with a
sweatshirt and there's college football, and the Leisure change
like, to me, that's the best season.
Look, it's their targets down this weekend, that's when fall
starts. Essentially, I'll go with that.
I like that. And speaking of fall, what is
your favorite fall treat? You guys come and spice latte
guy, I am allergic to Pumpkin. Okay?
But I do enjoy pumpkin seeds, I can eat those.
I can't eat the gourd part. Okay, so I'll go pumpkin seeds,
your pumpkin seeds. Got you have an assault guy, not
a sugar guy. So that's that's where I'm like
you're salty. Yeah, I'm Salty's.
Well, yeah. Okay, living the Salt Life.
Yeah, right trusted. You have a favorite fall treat.
Not just I mean basically pumpkin something with that has
to be included. Okay.
Some people. I'm not a pumpkin spice guy but
I love caramel apple. So it's like that's my piano.
I'm going to go with no peanuts because God daughter has a
peanut allergy who. Oh, that's right.
So and of course now she's we had the whole thing where we
dropped her off. I've had a lot of Life happen in
the last week. We dropped off last Friday.
We dropped my daughter off at College.
It was a lot more emotional. That I anticipate it like the
ride home was a lot of tears and reminiscing, and luckily, I
didn't break down in front. ever, you know, I made it
through but and then her coach who recruiter quit on to Monday,
What. Yeah.
Oh So you're going to coach or what's happening there.
Oh no, I'm not gonna be good, she's my good friends, it'll be
fired. So he made it, he made a family,
a family decision and that's good.
You know? And then of course, like, I just
appreciating what he's listening today because it's really, today
is really the first day of college football.
That, you know, North Western Nebraska debacle and Island,
doesn't really count. The, this is really when college
football starts, so you had college football going on, you
got the horse racing, happy hour.
A lot of people are doing their face.
He'd rather have my fantasy draft last night, you know, I'm
happy with it, I got Debo. So I'm happy when I understand I
give a cheer for my team. I thought that was part of my
strategy was get a couple 49ers not enough where like, the bye
week was gonna kill me, but then make sure I didn't get other
players from the, from the west, from the, from the NFC West.
So and, and I just also, I can make you, happy trustee.
I went ahead and took Mark Ingram with my last pick of the
draft there. It was still there.
Listen, he's like he's reliable right dudes.
Gonna catch passes well into if they're at the goal line, you
know, we can get it in. That's uh, yeah points.
So, you know, I don't know. - yeah, exactly.
They told the boss one thing and I don't think we have that right
now. I don't play Fantasy Football
too much. I never really got into it.
I like the pic himself but yeah yeah.
I don't do a thing. I don't do well with To see
sports stuff. So Louis if they ask you to be
in the ESPN 680 league. So, what's funny?
No, no, I don't enjoy fantasy football.
I think it's stupid. Love it.
I think it's complied. Oh, I don't love it.
I shouldn't have loved it. I just keeps me interested in a
Phillips. Makes it fun it.
More fun to watch Iowa of the majority on that.
I don't know these people. I am very much in the minority
on that. I just I don't enjoy fantasy
sports. Sorry.
All right before we go on like the one football thing I want to
talk about right now is that I love the fact that today the
backyard bra is back. West Virginia Pittsburgh is
playing right now which is probably one of the most
underrated robberies out there and they haven't played since
2011. When when pit join the ACC and
then West Virginia, went to the Big 12.
The next year in 2012, I love that game is back.
It's fantastic for football. I also love that they're playing
at week one. So one thing that I think you
can you vote get wrong and which content removal went back to
week young week one was the best and but it is what it is.
They're back, you know their last game of season as he sees
going to go to 99 games here soon and they might not have
that game ever again. I wish you can take him, Indiana
played again because Kentucky could use that W over a Big
Tuna. You know, minor league football
at its best, baby hundred thousand people watch, Molly
football, I didn't know what till recently that IU has the
least. As the worst winning percentage
in power 5 and they are five losses from 700.
Like and no one else is closed. It is it's I love it.
Okay, let's get into some racy from last week, we're gonna Zack
which race you have pulled off first just so I make sure that I
get it. Okay, great.
So we're going to start for some reason, Louis did not put
Jackie's Warrior getting upset by coders.
Wish the show sheet, which is which is ridiculous.
It's the it's a bigger story. Presenter.
Let's watch it right here. Jackie's work.
Warrior and putting it all late. Right here is Cody's wish on the
outside. Jackie's Warrior test that here
today Cody's wish on the outside, Cody's wish with the
upset in the Fargo, Cody's waste from off the pace with great run
right there by Cody's wish. Jackie's Warrior has really, no
excuses. You know, I was shocked but if
you listen to show, we told you better show and that's one of
the reasons why your boy said he's going to be 129.
He was 19. She'll get your nickel walk
away. That's what ended up hitting.
Cody's wish, story though is very cool.
I don't know if you know the backstory on that, but with the
Make-A-Wish, literally named after Cody, who was the
Make-A-Wish kid and was a cool picture of him watching that
race. And amen.
Grade one is a great one, and if you beat Jack, he's worried.
That's a great one Victory. That's her grade one.
David. A great walking.
That's right. Trustee any thoughts on that on,
Jackie's? Warrior getting upset?
I don't know. I find it that some of these
horses, can't be 100% every time.
Especially the more you run them and Jackie's Warriors.
Been raining a lot this year compared to a lot of other his
competitors. So I don't know, I think that he
got paste pressure from pipeline, Chad, Brown Source.
I mean, I know it's no excuse but I just don't think he was
fully 100%. I think they might go on a
little bit of a break. You know.
You got to get a break in there somewhere I think and just go
right into the Breeders Cup with him.
I won't even running another race.
Just go right in. Yeah, the way.
They did the if it's anything like two years ago, the way they
set up that dirt track for Breeders Cup at Keeneland.
It's a parking lot, he'll love it.
So you know it's a he should be a factor in the front this year.
Yeah, 100% with a green and I don't think yeah, they're
probably not going to race him again.
He's young Orion jet Sprint. Be ready to go and and there it
is. So, all right.
Well then, let's talk about the next.
Biggest story of the day and epicenter finally, get something
down when it is not a bad take episode, that's a bad Jackie's.
Warrior is much better. Is now three-year-old male of
the year and you're making it out that it's not a big deal.
I'm not saying it's not a big deal.
Jackie's Warrior getting beat to me is a bigger deal than
epicenter winning this race. It's It's losing Saratoga,
that's what happened. That happened, some absent in
one, got the great win, great one win.
So let's take a look real quick at epicenter in the Traverse
Zach's, not ready for us. All right, so it's okay Zack.
You know, exact actually just ran and hid.
I don't even know where he's at. You all can't see him.
I can see him. Yeah, I don't know where he is.
All right, so what happened, what happened in the epicenter?
I mean, epicenter was fantastic, right?
But who are you talking to me? Like, either one of y'all just
go. Somebody stole my saying, I'll
talk twice as great. All right.
So I guess I'll go. Um, you know, he won
impressively like you should have before and therefore
there's a race right here. We can see that.
Final turn cyber nice and control right here.
Which I needed to win. I had a lot of my all my bets at
CyberKnife point in CyberKnife is data.
It is epicenter in front and he is at the top of it.
Freeroll class office out there one the jim-dandy and he fucks
it up with a very top notch. All right, so as much as in
loses one wins one loses with Jackie's Warrior wins one with
epicenter trustee. What were you going to say here
about epicenters run here? Well, I was just going to say a
couple things I ever saw. Her will compress everyone.
Like you should have worn a couple times before.
The other thing is I think the ride Badger.
Ooh. Entire life was perfect because
if he was gonna run S, no matter what.
So he just went out there and went for it.
I don't blame for that. And lastly, being one of the few
people that actually did have Rich strike actually in the
derby. So, you did, yes.
Yeah. I did it cost me a Lonely by
legitimately are. Did you just like, have them
just because, hey, I'm gonna take a shot in the 50s on the 81
shot. No, I'm betting.
My turf voice. I was like, you know, I'll come
back and bite him again. Okay.
Okay, so I might be one of the few actually betting that Turf
way too, but that sounds wrong. So I built him.
A pill Tara, it was awesome. I'm still, you know, once they
get into his four-year-old campaign, if they run them and
they should. Yeah.
If they're if they're well, wouldn't you right?
I don't know if they get an offer whatever for breeding, I
don't know. They're not getting that.
I agree with you. But, um, you know, he could
become a mile-and-a-half specialist.
That horse loves to run, he's a doll called my plotter because
he does, he does, well, the ends of races, but he's plotter.
So if they get them in that vial and a half kind of class, I
think that he could actually pick off some more berries.
He could turn into a lone rock type, and have a derby on his
resume. I mean, that's, that's the kind
of work. You can turn out to be and I
hope they want them epicenter with the slowest.
Echo base speed figure in the last three years, and we'll
just, I just I'm gonna go back. I'm not sure how good this real
classes. So Erica is Mike, never likes
the three-year-old class so they think it's probably true.
Yeah. You love the 30 Philly class.
All right, we will go the race that I called it.
You know, we had gufo oh, what? We're gonna go we're gonna go
look Just come out that and okay, we'll do that.
That's how here's map. That win the personal inside.
And on the outside here is malafaia the as they come down
for the 16 pole, it is search results challenge here by
malathion on the outside, Malik got grabs the lead and deep
stretch and Malikov has won the person alone since takes search
results was second, let's ruska fated that the really important
things happen this week. As far as the Breeders Cup is
concerned, the class is unpredictable, and He's going to
be a very unpredictable race at Keeneland.
Second thing that happened is they've announced that by eat is
not going to run in the Breeders Cup and he's the best horse
going right now. He would have been probably the
easiest single in the history of the turf, more than bricks and
mortar. Wow.
The Breeders Cup and he's going to run on the arc and then he's
done and I don't like whatever. I get it.
I understand the scheduling and all that stuff.
That's fine. But that opened up that sequence
In an unbelievable way. Because the distaff now is if
not at all race, you're going to have to play four five.
No it's I was actually looking at Louis is now it's wide open
because they got really interesting this week for very
different reasons. I looked at the that distaff
field though earlier today, like the contenders and every single
one of You can make a case could win that race and that was in
that field. There's no question.
And, you know, we always talk about how it's always one of the
best races but this might be one of the best dis tasks of recent
history. And I thought what you're going
to say is that this was your favorite that you were against
on the Green Sheet and you retrieve three baby.
You are your favorite, the most likely winner.
The favorite you were against and then you hit your hit your
sequence. You know, luckily didn't have
the Jackie's Warrior Race in there, your dark, right?
So, because gonna get more Not the big five and yeah.
Yeah, I love it. So that was it Louie.
Louie, getting it done. And we, we talked about his
mouth that last week about it. You know, that this was the
horse that you couldn't leave off your ticket and was prop was
mouth at the fifth choice in this race forth forth.
Yeah, the cool part about that for sequence was that the two
obvious favorites Jack? Christopher at epicenter come in
Koufos, the pretty obvious second or third favorite in that
race, and then mail that comes in as the fourth base.
So, even in a very Essentially a double.
If you think about it that way, it's still paid, like three and
a half to one. So that's that's a pretty good
pat on the back for that. Yeah, I mean what do you think
about it mouth? That's run here.
I mean or that or that disapp class trustee.
It's just like you all said, it's just wide open.
I don't really have any faith in anybody.
I think the past two races and can I see her coming back?
One insurer? I mean it's just and she's
eyeing. My pic.
It's just this is just how bad they are.
I mean even their bed You need to Phillies are bad.
Okay? All right.
Drop off from the male's, the females this year, like the
males are stars and you know, who they are, it's obvious.
I'm but I'm totally on the opposite of this Iger.
Dennis, you don't think this female class is a good class?
I think it's a good class but I think we have an exceptional
dirt male class for the first time in a while.
Okay, well I agree with that. I agree that third or fourth
best horse and that horse is just picking races off as 11
off. That he comes back, he's too.
One on Saturday, in the Gold Cup.
I mean, no, this is a loaded field.
I mean, okay, absolutely loaded field for both races that's what
that's why this is a great sequence.
What come Breeders Cup time, but Nest, she tears, the devil mouth
that secret oath Cleary are blue.
Stripe, Inlet ruska are your 7 contenders right now?
For that distaff. I mean, that's class.
I don't know. So, do you have Zenyatta in
there? No, I'm here, maybe that's no,
but we're talking about, like, if flight line, especially if he
does something tomorrow on Saturday, we'll talk about those
- when we get there but like your would your like fourth best
horse in the in the the older males is like Country Grammar
who's a grade one winner and is going to show up I think on
Saturday in a serious way you know Olympiad etc etc.
It's a really impressive group going to the bus and sure.
Well we also just don't, you know how that those horses are
going to disperse, most the classic in the mile, you know.
Because most of them could go and either one, you know, the
mile in the class are give you really good.
At Keeneland to. So yeah, it's going to be
attracted some of these guys, for sure.
Yeah. But that's another reason why
this flight line race to me so important, right?
I mean because he won the Met mile but that's a one-term.
I'll and so now we're, he's got to go to turns the first time.
Look, that this is this is the most important to turn debut in
the Pacific classic in recent memory.
I mean not even close because usually horses, don't make their
freakin debut over two-thirds of grade, whatever it is, this
level, and they just don't. All right, let's see what race
week. Exactly.
I pull up next, he's keeping me on my toes.
I can't even read that. It's so blurry.
Okay, here's Koopa. On the outside is Soldier
Rising. Here comes to follow up to
challenge. Me, remission for the lead, and
to follow has got it goof. Oh by a half-length me remission
was second dolls. UFO does is Win Mana half races.
We said it last week, we pointed this one out.
You know how important it was that?
This is a specialist in Through gufo, it doesn't.
If it's a mile in, you know, 33 mile and a quarter.
Yeah, yeah. Right right.
Wow. 3/8. It doesn't matter.
Its Mana have gufo gets it done. Yeah.
You know I had tribute band and I had gufo but I didn't have the
other two there and man I was sweating that fit so I felt
really good if I got through that one, you know, I got
epicenter, I got CyberKnife, I feel good in the last there.
And so, but yeah, it was a, those down the wire, Google's
cool. Iceman won a bunch of money.
He'll probably go to study this year, but that's another one, I
think in that in that brings Comfort because by eat isn't
making the trip man. It sets up a really cool race
and frankly, there's a bunch of horses, have finished right
behind him, that that are going to be a problem to.
So when the truth of ends of the world, the try to think of well,
that feels that feels letter to for sure.
That's a loaded. That's a load of class which is
yeah, better better Turf racing in North America right now than
usual because usually we don't have horses that call.
Yeah or we have a bricks and mortar and no one.
Right, that's exactly right. Trustee.
I'm going to slightly kind of disagree and look at it as a
different way at kind of. I know gu phone obviously needs
this since I think he also needs her toga a little bit.
Hmm horse, for course, that, you know, he's done really well free
time. These are in there.
So I'm not going to say that. He doesn't need the distance as
well as he needs a little bit of Saratoga.
I think it's a little bit of both, but he's definitely kind
of impressive enough to He's got a shot in them, you know, the
turf in the rear speak up and I honestly, I wouldn't even be
surprised if the 10 years Mission.
Yeah, that's that was a pretty strong run out of that horse as
well. That's the kind of horse fills
out the trifecta superfecta, at the Breeders Cup.
And suddenly, you're talking about, 201 on a trifecta, that
kind of thing. Totally.
Yep. All right, then we'll the last
race. We're going to look at is Jack
Christopher in the Jerkins Jack in the jerky and 44 to 50
seconds. It is Con occur.
And here's Jack Christopher now to move, right along side,
running, son of a gun is down at the raladin.
Third guide is next in Forth as they come down for the Furlong
marker and it is Jack. Christopher who now gets away
from the field that is Jack Christopher in front.
Goodnight moves into second running son of a gun down at the
rail and third it is Jack Christopher back to sprinting
today back to win. Today, the grade 1 H Allen
Jerkins Memorial, handicap Jack, Christopher getting it.
Done really loves that horse. I'm gonna start crusty.
What do you think about Jack Nicklaus the race?
Because Lily loves horse cast on the, I understand.
Well, I will say you look, good, you look really good.
He's a sprinter or at least a mile or something like that and
I think gunite was really Kind of prove that he Longs in some
kind of conversation not that he's I don't think he's better
than that. Christopher.
I think he was just, you know, he might close out something.
Again, a pretty horse I don't think that really benefits him
in the Sprint but I think you can close out something.
So All right, so so what I'm getting from trustee is he's he
learned a lot of the horses that finish, you know, second third,
and fourth more so than even some of these winners.
I mean, I would you say I mean, I think there's a lot there to
look. We're talking about grade ones,
and that's an important thing to worry about, you know?
So the fall meet for example, I'm trying to find three and up
going a mile over the dirt. So it's a great three.
I mean, a horse like gun, I could run into Saluki, for
example, at Churchill Downs. That's the one turn mild.
That could be a really Spot for him.
I think any race where you're getting into that seven,
furlongs a mile. One turn sort of set up for him
sets up really. Well I don't know if their
connections want to run them in a Grade 3 luckily it's Churchill
Downs was three hundred thousand dollars, you can take them 180
thousand dollar check that kind of thing so you know that might
be a spot you know getting into November if they don't want to
run him before that. But you know even at you know
that I mean Christ, there's so many races where, you know, he
can be he could be in that are listed Stakes that are like 85
and 300,000 at Churchill Downs. He wants to pick one of those
out, you know, it would be a really good spot for him.
Is the ack-ack. October 1st, Churchill Downs,
one mile, it's 300,000. It is a great three, but you
could do that one. Then you could aim for the
Saluki later. I mean, do those back-to-back
run that mile run? That one turn mile.
So you see unlike you should shy away from being a short Sprint,
I would not read. Yeah, I'm kind of thinking.
Now, looking at that horse, go to tires.
If so I mean ass. You some, you know, Oklahoma
Derby, that could be another golf, some some way.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what?
Actually he's three, isn't it? Gosh, I'm doing this wrong.
You know, for three-year-olds, I mean the the yeah, we don't want
to run them on the turf here she Jus.
So I'm watching it a darrenrodgers email.
I only ask questions put them in the Sprint.
Okay. I mean, I mean trustee, do you
think Jack Christopher's? Would he have beaten Jackie's
Warrior on Saturday? No Jack.
What are you doing? Jack, Chris for a gunite, check
restaurant, okay, beaten. How good was that performance?
That's what I'm getting at. What do you think?
Jackie is wearing on Saturday? I was looking at gunite.
I wasn't what I was just talking about gonna die.
Yeah, what I'm getting at. Is he finished a length behind
that horse, right whatever. No question was that run.
Because if he was better than Jackie's Warrior on Saturday,
then, yeah, you said you send both of those guys to the I get
it but I don't I don't know. The Jack Christopher was better.
The jacket Warrior he was running against three months.
I think that point and I would agree with that Jack Christopher
to to me is also probably better off.
I don't know. I mean, because Jack Christopher
could go to Sprinter on the mile and the Breeders Cup but you
don't think Jackson scored two goals in the Breeders Cup at
all? I don't think, no, I think he
does. I think it goes in the Sprint.
He's not doing it to turn Mi that would be a bad job, okay?
All right, racing, man, that day always Traverse a is always.
Also they do the job. It's really, yes, it's okay.
Jack's of all miles. I thought you liked my Jack in
the Jerkins piece there. Zach, I was a little upset that
you didn't like that, you know, I'm going with the masturbation
humor touch that but you know, whatever.
All right, hey, let's talk real quick.
We're gonna go talk about our green, sheets handicapping
segment. Now make sure you're going In
street racing.com and getting your pics.
And let's see if we can do it two weeks in a row where he gets
his. Most likely winner is favorite
he's against and his seek. Are you going to pick for?
You're gonna pick five on this one, right?
Doing a pick five baby didn't like the class.
Absolutely. So we're going to give you for
the force takes race is we're going to talk about those.
There's the fifth race has an optional claimer that we're not
going to talk about, so you have to go to Green Sheet racing.com
and get that pic to get the whole sequence from Louis, which
Usually means you bet $84 to win ninety six dollars.
And by the way, our guy Dennis our guy Dennis, I don't want to
do this since like making cakes and joke for the 78 is trust
your heart trust. He's got his own picks, man.
Go find trustee as well. Our advice is always get as much
information as you can get to the get, you know, get to the
PPS. Look at them, get your own
opinion, grab a Green Sheet, look at it, get get trustee
stuff. You don't put it all together,
make your best, most informed. Spend the time don't just don't
just tap on your phone, don't do that, you know, be better with
all the information that you can get.
Dennis is a great resource for that and of course we're going
to. We're going to point you toward
the green shoes and that's what trust me.
It's like they didn't owe you 5 bucks and some pics.
Is that what it is basically basically?
Yeah I do that a lot sometimes I do free.
So I mean it just depends and I'll say this too sometimes you
want to take the green sheet and then take mine and throw them
onto the ground and use the Green Sheet.
Without information style, Dennis caps more of a value
style. So if you could put those
together in a ticket actually there's a lot of value there.
So it's just that value twice. But there's a lot of we have
different opinions is what I should say.
And I that's why I like dust Dennis why.
I like this because it is a it's a different style.
All right, so let's head out to Del Mar and talk about the, the
four stakes races. All there's actually five steaks
racing car. We're gonna talk about four of
them and we're going to start with the gray to Del Mar mile.
Now, Louis, we talked about the horse racing happy hour class
system. And to me, this is not a great
to even though we have the last winner of the Pacific classic.
And the last winter of the Del Mar handicap, and after they won
both, those races have not done jack shit and By the way, that's
a, that's a trend right now in the Pacific class.
If you win the Pacific classic and then don't do anything
afterwards. So, four out of five.
Last of the last specific classic winners have never won a
race after that. How many weights are the
breeding said like, no? No, no.
I mean, you're seeing like horses that have, right?
I mean maximum-security ran two more times and that was it.
But never won again and that, that was the fewest amount of
times after that. So Maxwell the cigar mild a year
before he won the The Pacific has got it.
Okay, I'm just trying to get my chronology in order there.
Okay. So Tripoli is not won since I
mean, this is not a great to to B.
This is a, this is a great three probably.
So, what do we think about this races?
I mean, there's Tripoli break that streak and actually become
get a win after the Pacific classic whom.
And by the way, I am such a fan of Dennis's.
I want Dennis to go first on these.
I want people to hear Dennis because this guy doesn't get air
time. I get air time because of this
silly podcast. So let's have data scope
personal. Well, I will say this, the six
last time, R and blistering. Fractions, this is sawed off.
And if, if that horse runs that race, which I don't think that
he will Goliad. Good luck, everybody else in the
field. I just want to point that out.
First and foremost totally wrap the nine.
I mean, I just don't like the nine, I don't know what, they
even know what to do. At this horse, what I mean by
that is the horse was on Turf and he's on dirt and he's back
home turf then he's back on dirt and you don't know you don't
know. So I don't think that that horse
is very good. I think the horse actually might
want to retire sometime soon and lastly I'll talk about the five
who I would consider. Probably my top pick in the race
Hong Kong Harry. I consider this horse undefeated
why. If you look at the comment
lines, pinball check early last timeout.
Finished second. So ran a good race could have
pulled up. And then every other race in
that was a win and stocking off the pace.
You know, not crazy too far behind but not, you know, on the
lead. So I think that that horse is
probably going to be the force. That is the one to watch out for
in this Delmar Delmar mouth. And I think you're totally right
plus, he plucks. He picks up Flavia and right and
that's a to be a big positive. We watched earlier this year
done, just that. Remember what I read went out
and rode for a day and he picked off both grade 1 Ins and did all
that actually Flavia to do a little bit of that this weekend.
And so I think he's getting a jockey upgrade from Ramon
Vasquez. Last time you rode the horse was
in an optional claimer over a mile, and an eighth, and a buck
forty eight, really impressive time, first time in North
America and so, it makes sense that he would be the favorite
here. The only horse, I think that you
didn't mention is the three irid AO the Argentine bread.
One Last Time Out, has back-to-back 90 to 95 Beyer
speed figures, did win in a in a restricted Stakes.
Tell Mark over this course right and I always look at that, it
was a little bit slower that horse did get the lead very,
very late in the race, which is interesting because usually the
horse is a front-runner. I like it with horses can do
multiple things. He seems to be one of those
horses, one win in four runs though.
This year, I do like his form at Del Mar, so that's kind of where
I'm going with that. You mentioned a horse.
For course, earlier it at Saratoga with gufo I kind of
feel that way about him here. I'm going to include Tripoli in
my ticket because it Feels like the kind of horse that's going
to go off at 12 or 13 to 1. And if it's the one day that the
bleep and thing actually works out, I'm gonna feel stupid if I
leave them off. And so I'm actually using I'm
even five horses here at the pick five Hong Kong, Harry lost
a masterpiece who will also see later on in that in the
handicap. So yeah, alright the the next
race that we're going to talk about because we're going to
skip the optional claiming race and go straight to the Del Mar
Derby at great too. By the way, random It's not
random reason to buy the form. I'm against the favorite in that
race and I'll tell you why and race hsn.com.
Yes. Alright.
So, there you go. That's the favorite.
You're against his and race eight.
So I make sure you get that formed Grace and so am I
underneath for the seizure Sportsbook Delmar Derby?
This is a great to Turf course. They use.
That kind of funky shoot going through the cuts through the
infield to our. Yeah.
Yeah. Two and a half turn right.
Who do we like in this race? You want?
That trust you go first. Well, I guess I kind of like a
little bit on the rail. I think the horse is going to
get us a nice setup. Honestly, I'm more of a negative
person. I like being honest, this is, I
don't really love this field because I'd probably, yeah, I
think everybody looks the same besides that to, I think the two
is just going kinda running contr.
The first time it's a dark horse.
I don't really like that horse ever.
We lost trustee there may be temporarily, so he's freezing
honest. But a little you want to want to
come back. Okay.
Sorry. Um, I'll just was saying that.
I think everybody looks the same besides the to in the forever.
You can talk me on to anybody in this race and I don't know.
This is a handicap and show but take them all in all.
I'm punching. All of the odd horses.
In this race one, three, five, seven eightt, so I'm going to
have some coverage I'm with you man.
It's a bit of like okay, well he did that but this other horses
down that so like for example the three Wards see three
straight wins Dennis I'm sure you like a horse that just wins
right, you know a horse that wants to be out front.
Stay out front that kind of thing overtake horses.
You get Mike Smith has hit the board.
All five runs this year, you get Dandy Warhols.
Again I think there's a chance Lobby and Pratt goes out there.
And just has a day horses, run twice in North America.
First time running doesn't doesn't doesn't run to, well
comes back. When's it Dundalk for the maiden
race, they bring them over Stateside runs in an optional
claimer last time out ads. Elmar over this course and wins
charging at the end. So if there is a pace battle up
front, that could be your winner.
Here McKinnon is a is a really interesting horse and this is a
Doug O'Neill special. Good luck figuring out what his
plan was with this horse horse went up and ran in the El Camino
Real derby with a hole with the hope of being on the Triple.
Crown Trail was the favorite in that race, big-time Blackadder
jumps up and wins that race. The synthetic there.
Do they decide not to run the horse in any of the races out
east comes back and then runs a very disappointing fourth in the
ocean side but that horse is really talented.
Was really good before those two races they gave me a little bit
of time off. He's frankly second off the
layoff here. That's actually really good
angle with Doug O'Neill and then ball knock off the u9.
Get some bear. Do you have to trust you Peridot
on the turf in Southern California, teams up with Phil
D'Amato, they're hitting it. 29% at Del Mar.
Right now. So I'm all the odds here, in, in
the derby. Excuse me, and so 1357 night.
I don't think I've ever said that I'll just show.
How about that? We're coming up on our third
year, a three-year anniversary. I've never said that before.
You're unbelievable. I just think you know I'm just
so impressed. All right, so we're going to
move on to tomorrow. You don't okay like your
daughter going to college. I'm actually I'm not feeling
okay Maalik order. Is the Pacific class if the TVG
pursuit of classic. Like, like I said, there's been
so impressive winners of this race, but they just never gone
on to do anything outside of that after they won this race.
Last Philly to win this race, by the way.
Oh, I don't know the answer to this.
It's in Beholder. Say this Beholder.
Oh yeah it all I love it. Now we got horses here.
We're obviously we got the lightly race flight line that
everyone swears the best horse in trains going to turn to the
first time against three horses that go against each other, all
the time, really? For the classic distance from
the first time, right? And going to classes for the
first time against for really good horses.
Royal ship look great last timeout but has never won
back-to-back races. Country Grammar is Country
Grammar. He's a great horse and you know,
we got Express trains to little boy Royal.
So, you know what happens here, trustee it again, see
Flightline. Why don't we do our normal thing
where we go to the big race, and we decide if they were Contender
or not a contender, all right, we'll start with extra hoped in
his extra, hope a contender or Pretender.
Yeah, I don't want that horse today.
Okay. All surprise under hungry for
Country, Grammar Contender. Yeah, big time.
Yes. A Kyle of his effort last time.
He just needed an extra for a long and he's getting it here.
Yes I loved Royal ship and San Diego handicapped but I'm going
to say he's a pretender in this race.
Whoo I'm going to go down with Titanic.
I mean the Royal Chef I'm take out that actually is the horse I
like but I know we'll get to that in a second.
I don't know now is the time do house, not go.
Okay. Well yeah I've got all this trip
I'm going with I'm gonna be drowning.
So that's your that's your guy. Here's here's the deal.
Here's the deal and I want to point this out.
Again, Dennis is the value handicapper, he sees this horse
that 821. He sees the PPS.
He sees this horse having done well, over two turns at delbar,
right? And recently frequently with a
102 buyer, he sees this, he sees Mike Smith and this is where
dentist is is unique and is handicapping and I appreciate it
horses working. Well right now, by the way, all
everything adds up that this horse is going to run a good
race, you just have to believe on this day that he's going to
be better than the other horses in this race.
I would take Country, Grammar ahead.
Royal ship if we're doing that right now.
I love Country Grammar after his last run I said to Mike man he
might be a single the Pacific classic and then they mentioned
that flight line was coming so and I agree with what Louis just
said, I love Royal ship in the handicap.
That's true. Do not you know like I said he's
never won back-to-back races and he's never won at him on a
quarter. He's you know, he's more on the
mound of 16th kind of modern eight actually - 16th a mile and
a molony. Those are his wins.
So That's that's kind of why I'm against him on here, but I can't
fault you for like I said, he has look really good lately, so
I've but I would lean on Country Grammar.
All right, Express train Contender are Pretender.
I mean, it's a 50/50, I mean, the horse runs good, but I would
say, for tender against this field, I think Contender, he's
345 lifetime at Del Mar crippled buyers peapickers last three
times out of you care about those, but two losses in that
time, he's been the favorite. The last three times.
He's running. He's lost his two, little boy,
turns me off a bit. That's the problem.
And by open mics frankly. And so I think he's a kid, never
mind pretending. I'm torn on this one though to
Louis because the speed figures are really good.
Yep. Ain't he he's one of them on a
quarter before. He's three, four, five of Delmar
i-i'm. I'm gonna go kid.
Yeah, 20% Which off Sheriff's do, all of if you want.
Look, this is the race. You're gonna have to make a
decision in sequence. You use Flightline.
Do you go against? That's a decision in this
sequence. If you're if you're Dennis,
you're gonna go against it, I get it.
I understand the gambling aspect of taking the horses that are
going to have longer odds in the spot Express train though, to
me, if you're going to go against has to be an inquiry.
Okay, so I'm going to say contender on, I'll go container
on the express train and then we're at Flightline.
Obviously mean, they'll hang on, don't say obvious, okay, that is
futile. Say obvious I'll say, flight
line is a very good horse, he's improving knowledge, it's kind
of like it. Look if you really like, flight
line, Just stay out of this race in my opinion, if you like him
as a horse, stay out of the race because this is really
everything you need to know. Because as a bedding
perspective, you have no reason to be betting him at 125 in the
spot, but them to show was what? Yeah.
Bring the show. Yeah, I think he's seriously,
but then, there's that part of me that saying he's never done
it before, and obviously he's a good company.
Yeah, and he's facing good company wants.
What makes it tougher, because he's facing good company.
So, I'll say contender, but obviously, But bad you think
he's you vulnerable vulnerable Contender.
Yeah. Yeah, you're not bad.
Enough to win it. You know, 125 dead is shrouded,
by the way, I put on our on our Twitter feed that the pole.
Are you okay with flight line at 125 80% of people were okay with
the 20%? We're not.
Dennis is in that second Camp, right?
No, way 125 is okay. I'm actually the second Camp.
I don't think 125 is. Okay.
Honestly, if you can get Country, Grammar for 21.
That makes this race playable to me because I think he's the best
of the to turn proven horses in this race.
He thinks it's Royal ship. That's way better value than
what I've been talking about. I think flight line is going to
show up in a serious way. I trust Bobby and practice, slow
him down and not run, 22, who in 45 over the first turn and try
to figure it out. I think he's look tap it on top
of any Charlie on bottom. I really trust him to be to be
to be built for this. I don't love that he runs every
Three years or whatever. His this is the second race in
2020, but, but all of those things said, I think he's the
class the race, for sure. What we're gonna find out which
race, he's going to go to in the previous game after this.
Oh no. Oh yeah, that's that's the whole
point here. Is he gonna do the classes?
You go on the mile and it's going to come down to or and or
the Sprint frame for the Sprint on all three laughing.
Yeah. So I'm contender in this race.
I mean there's Their horse racing, people who fails, if he
fails on Saturday, he makes the Sprint a lot less interesting at
the Breeders Cup pregnant. Yeah, we talked about, we talked
about two classes being more interesting.
With the distaff. It with the turf, he could make
it a lot less interesting. If he runs really, if he was
really poorly on that honestly, Fe runs so bad that he does run
a Sprint. I wouldn't even mind seeing
Jackie's, Warrior Jack, Christopher.
Go to the mall to say, uh, I can't beat him.
I would. All right stiletto, boy, I'm
going to go for tender over three of domar.
And, oh, Three of the distance does have that one recent win
over Express train at Santa Anita, but I'm going to go
pretend neurons to little boy. I think that was just as
one-time shot right there. Yeah, he's a little boy to be a
contender for the first half of the race and then nothing to the
last half of Love, is probably right.
That's right. He's gonna be the one that would
push flight line on the front. I am also Contender still a
little boy, I guess if some for some odd reason, they got a
whole bunch of rain at Del Mar, I guess that would make emic
potentially a contender right in San Diego, right?
Right? In San Diego.
Exactly. I we're going to go back to the
turf Mile and 38. so just to recap on that one, Hoosier your
absolute pick in the handicap, Are not in the handicap, but in
the end, the Pacific classy. Go ahead, Lily, fine.
Line here, I'm trusting the form.
I'm trusting the breeding I think lately, okay?
Trust, if you want to sorry I had something that what what
happened? Who is your, who is your pick in
the Pacific? Classic are you know, Country
Grammar? I mean that's a good chance.
So I don't hate either one of them to horses.
I was gonna say if you're going against Flightline, the two and
the three of the horses to use. I all right, let's move on to
the Del Mar handicap. It is small and three eighths on
the turf and we get it. We get a son of a great are
here, which I mean, look, look, I mean, if you want a single in
this sequence, his name is Greg daughter.
He's a son of great are A favorite on this show bread for
four thousand dollars. Obviously your winner in a Grade
to trustee. I hope you understand that.
That's a very very loud joke that we have on the show.
Go ahead give us. He is too poor to do more
though. You know I like him dude.
Earth. All right.
So who's our who's our? Pick in this race?
I guess, starting off with me I would say probably the 10.
I like the 10. Well it's goes back to the Hong
Kong hairy thing. If Hong Kong Harry wins and I
got I like the horse even more. If that horse loses.
Well then you know I kind of don't like him as much
obviously. Ah, and then the horse had beat
Hong Kong Harry and the pin as well Master Roxanna.
Yeah, it's a masterpiece. Right.
So that's right. Yeah, I don't hate that horse
either. I just think that was kind of
flu he last time out at 16 1. But yeah, I think I think the
race goes through the Eddie read.
Okay, so those two horses, essentially 8:50 for you, okay
man this is where I'm going to get daring on this.
I'm gonna single Masterpiece in the last okay I don't think it
was a fluke at all I think I love Abel cedillo you get you
know second off that layoffs 21% with Mike McCarthy and when they
win the last start it's 15%. So I'm going to lean on that
horse. That's my value play of the day
frankly is to single in this last race because Generally
speaking a mile and three Aces kind of a strange strange bird
itself. He's finished second one time at
97 speed figure. He's a win.
And a second at Del Mar seems to like the course finished second
in this race last year. Yeah, I remember that correctly,
Delmar handicap, a ran second last year behind astronaut who's
a significantly better horse than anyone in this field.
So to me Masterpiece is your is your finisher here.
So I'm going single single to end the sequence here.
Okay. So at the same time even though
it's on the show sheet, we have two other Breeders Cup challenge
race is going on at Saratoga. One is also for the classic that
has Olympiad in it. Do you see anybody threatening
Olympiad in that race because I don't?
Oh, yeah. Okay, I'm kind of figuring that.
I think he is really good. I saw him, love it, Turtle
through both. You did as well.
Yeah. And that was pretty impressive.
And again, these horses can't be 100% every time.
So, I went and it was against life is good.
I think this is actually one of the real test that he needs to
pass an order. Say, he's truly a contender and
yeah, I really don't think there's anybody else in the
race. Now I know they're doing
Evolution baby. Yeah I don't like American
Revolution. I think he's I think that cigar
mile puts people into a class that they're not it's a 1 turn
mile, I think Dynamic one is the horse here that's that if
someone's going to catch him is going to be him.
It is a at a mile and a quarter at Belmont.
That's one turn buddy wins at Churchill Downs in the blame
over two turns. I think if anyone's going to
catch him, it would be dynamic when the eighth in that race.
And so I went pretty straightforward.
Me, I went to Libya had the two and then the eight Dynamic.
One on top, I had to do that for the AVR picks this weekend.
Okay. Did you also have to be the
flower bowl? I did not have to do the flower
bowl. Okay.
The Fireballs, the other one that's, that's Korea to.
Yeah, that's another British do challenge race.
Capital structure, Flanagan's kovrigin, enjoy warlike goddess.
Kostina Temple. City Terror in The Marvelous
mod. This is a loaded field.
This is a legit great to. Yes.
Absolutely. If not, if not a great 2 plus, I
mean, it's yeah, it is, it should be.
I mean, right. I mean, absolutely.
Yeah. But, you know, I will say too, I
guess I'll take myself on this. I believe it or not, I was on
more like goddess. I said this is probably one of
the best top ten horses I've ever seen back in October at
Churchill, and she won with October meaning, like 2020.
Yeah. When Rain was riding her, and I
was like, oh my God, she is huge.
And then she turned out to be really good.
And I was like, oh, so I was right about one pilot but now,
so I gotta love for that horse, so I guess that's the one I
gotta pick. Right?
Why me, she's coming to 25 in this race is what?
Her morning line is an active. What's that saying of or
singular? All right, I love it.
I mean the odds say yes on that. I can't believe it Denizen.
I agree. There you go.
Alright, go at it. If anyone picks it off its
Virginia Joy, just because you got I read and he's gonna, there
are no rules in New York for him.
He can do whatever the hell we want.
And so, so that would be the other horse.
You can just knock knock people over, you know, all he ran into
the rail, we don't care, you know, whatever.
So yeah, if anything happens, it would be for you to join.
But last time out, she finished third behind more like goddess
and Temple City. Terrorism is race Temple, City
tears. An underrated horse, man.
She's really great. Yeah.
And you know six-year-old still running five wins 26 times
running but she's hit the board 15 times and 26 runs is she's
just a gamer expect her with Lee with Louis eyes to be part of
the, I don't know. Probably the trifecta, I would
guess. And so but I'm with I'm with
Dennis on this one more like goddess is the class of the
stretcher. Louis what are your kids doing
right now? Since they're home alone and
you're outside smoking, cigars, and talk about their I guess
they're watching a movie on Netflix.
Netflix since I had to not, let them watch YouTube anymore
because I learned the horrible truth about YouTube children.
So I figured the teach you something.
They did, I they were watching videos about Peppa Pig dentist,
you know what Peppa Pig is. Very little.
Okay, that's good. Your life is better for it.
So the popped up a video where the pigs were murdered in the
video? And I had to deal with.
I had to deal with kids who couldn't fall asleep and
nightmares for a week because of some bleep in YouTube video
about murdering Peppa Pig family and making bacon.
So, that's my life. This is the modern Digital Life.
It's not worth it. It's not worth it.
Don't live podcast. Don't do any of these things.
It's terrible right away. What do you got?
A Green Sheet racing. That cam Green Sheet.
We can have a lot of That's right.
And you get your trusty pics. Also, make sure you're looking
at Dennis underscore, trustee on Twitter and then just send them
Cinema venmo and he'll send you some pics.
That's that's all you got to do. Look.
I honestly, you know, there are and Dennis and I have talked
about this, it is very hard to be in horse racing with a last
name. Like Robo or last name, like
trustee or last name. Like Adolfo.
We're doing it. We're out there.
And it's it is, it is cool that Dennis is involved in the The
Zeitgeist of horse racing that he's involved in the
conversation, the national conversation.
Dennis gave me a really, really cool complement earlier today.
And I won't share that publicly, but like it is it is hard to
break into the sport. If your dad's not a trainer, if
you're whatever, you know. And so it's fun to be on with
the three of us doing this thing because we just love the sport,
you know? We again, we part the horse
part, the, the whatever. And so, you know, coach Come
out, Dennis other sport, Rusty on Twitter and go get his picks.
Because like I said, get all the information you can get all of
it because he thinks differently he caps differently than I do.
And that's a cool opportunity and so keep it up man.
You're doing a great job. Thank you.
Thank you. I appreciate that.
By the way, if you're ever at Churchill Downs and you're
around me. Dennis will eventually find me?
It's amazing. Like, I feel like every time I
think, I just get it. but yes, I would say yeah,
because we are So amazing. I mean, it's definitely true and
true. And again, like you said, not a
trainer not no hot water. Well then, I guess you don't.
But now, it's really, it's really cool.
And even to seeing all these great horses, even the ones that
my dad worked with it shipped elsewhere.
And one of the stakes race at Pimlico Preakness weekend and
well, we won. The would buy notes to with a
horse that he's worked with. So, So it's really cool.
But then the very next day you got to get up and go at it and
keep hustling. And that's kind of what horse
racing is about. Is just got it.
No matter what happens. You got to keep grinding, keep
going, keep pushing. And I mean Dennis's family is
that part of horse racing? That you don't see on TV you
don't see when the races are going off but is so integral to
what we get to enjoy and all those things.
And I mean if you need it if you need a key at Churchill Downs
that's that's that is trustee. I mean like we need to get it.
Yeah it was it was what are you doing?
Nobody nothing right now but yeah I used to be that you
that's what Hey listen. That's why we had to keep a
watch on Lulu. Here he was at all times.
I like that all the time. All right, what's a?
Let's pay the tab. Let's get out of here, guys.
Thanks a lot for a great show and we'll see you next time on
the horse Asian. Happy hour.
