Don't like the race.Think Optimizer is going to sit behind the cheap speed of Folk Singer and get a perfect trip.Like the other C Clement a little in Race 7 Chamois at 10-1.

Tks for the input, mike. What do you like in race 8? Want to put a pick 3 together. Tks.

I like 2-Fly Ride but wouldn't be surprised by anyone.Even think 13-Departures has an outside shot to hit the board at 20-1.

Think TWILIGHT ESCAPE is coming up to this race similarly to the way he did in the Pan Am at 12F which he won... 2.5 month layoff and then 5 weeks back. His running line last is similiar to his race before the Pan Am and he's also going 1F further as he did last time

thats what i was thinking too, but i hated it when the jockey had won multiple races earlier the day, seldom do they win again in the big race. now it's making me to think twice about him.

surprisingly, the 2-Speaking of Which has been bet down quite a bit. Hmm, is he back to his Ireland form??

Thinking the #8 Exclusive Strike is worth a shot at 20/1.

Boisterous won. Twilight second. Chalk prevails.

chall prevails, but $1 tri still paid $133; (my ticket cost $8) not too bad.

Very nice. I also liked Twilight Escape. Thought highly of Opimizer and Boisterous so just couldn't figure out how to turn profit. Ended up with w/p.
