California Chrome vs Untapable?

**mikemca** · 05-03-14, 06:42 PM

Think they've said Untapable not going that route but that would be a pretty good show.

If it's a slow figure race which at 2:03.3 it might be could see
them possibly taking a shot at it

Yeah I remember when Rachael Alexandra's connections decided to take a shot against Mine that Bird in the Preakness. Borel jumped ship and scored with Rachael. A different animal considering Mine was 50/1 vs. 2/1 for Chrome. But like you said if it comes up a slow figure they may take a shot. Hope they do.

pretty sure I heard Asmussen say yesterday that he would not run Untapable in the Preakness

Let me see Cc beat Danza when he is not getting knocked all over the track and stuck behind a wall of horses.

CC got a perfect scenario as the horses on the pace had no buisness even running in the Derby. I am looking forward to seeing what CC will do when he has to pass a horse in the stretch with some quality in 2 weeks Social Inclusion who will be 2nd choice. I suppose Kid Cruz will be 3rd or 4th choice. I dont know if Danza is even going in the Preakness.

Agree about the perfect trip but the reason he gets them a lot is because of his great tactical speed to be wherever he wants early on.For him to get a bunch of dirt kicked in his face there is going to have to be a couple rabbits thrown in to run a .22 quarter or he is going to stumble at the gate.

Of course I will be right behind you trying to beat him but I don't think it's going to be as easy as I did.Plus the Social Inclusion scratch yesterday isn't a good sign even if he does run.

Untapable will not run in the Preakness, but it looks as if Ria Antonia will. She finished 6th in the Oaks. She went off at 10/1. Connections said nothing against Chrome, but they would rather race him then the best 3 year old in Untapable.

**Slimpickens** · 05-06-14, 11:31 AM

The Ria Antonia fiasco continues. She is now in Tom Amoss's barn I just heard. What a joke.
