What's the play in the Woodward today fellas?

Mucho scratched. Supposedly Paynter hated the surface in his last. I've always liked Ron the Greek but don't think he will get the pace to close into. Will use 4 & 5 hoping Jackson Bend can score the upset in the Forego.

Mucho Macho Man is scratching due to wet track

If Successful Dan runs his last race again he'll be tough.It took a BC Classic effort by Cross Traffic to beat him.
Paynter looks awfully lonely on the lead so if he gets away with murder on the front end don't know if anyone will close him down.
Ron The Greek loves sloppy tracks.

Looks chalky to me unless Ron The Greek really goes off at 8-1 on a sloppy track but don't see the public not noticing his wet track record and earlier effort at GP.

I think the long shot for this race will be 7- Alpha. Ran poorly the last two out and can argue with some trouble plus trip from overseas. Blinkers on today and with the scratch of MMM, Alpha will probably sit close to Paynter and get first crack at him. He loves Saratoga and can win on slop. 12-1 ML, why not and he will most likely be overlooked. Just my two cents.

I will prolly play: 7-2-5 tri box and exacta box, and sprinkle a little on 7 to win.

Fort Larned scratched as well. Paynter should be the huge fave here.

Can't believe I left out the 4- Flat Out! Shoulda make a killing on this race. The 7-Alpha paid $17.40 to win. Oh well, maybe I will have better luck next time.

Great race and good call on Alpha. Thought Flat Out was going pass him but Alpha was game.

I thought so too, but thank goodness he didn't, cuz all I have was win bets and DD and Pick 3.
