ev was clear to the top of the stretch..no excuses..I think with that being the likely scenario for epi to be that heavily favored is meaningful..thought I heard them talking on fox that the surface was very tiring..who knows

Wore me out for sure. NYY saved the day, all I can say J. Saratoga takes, the Bronx gives.

cost a good amount relative to the specs..try to beat the big 3 todd,chad and christophe

R4 #5 diamant damhsa (6-1 ml/5-1 @ 16 mtp)

R7 #2 heymackit'sjack (7-2)

jim dandy

R9 #4 early voting (8-5)

don't think epicenter (#2) can stay with him early based on bris pace figures although i can't see him not giving it a try ..cuts back a half furlong from the preakness..looks like a good set-up to me

dmr

R3 #8 always at ease (10-1)

extremely expensive for the pedigree..sire is one of the better one's with fts and an above avg turf influence..turf and fts are not this trainer's strong suit
but that will help the price..jockey avg turf but with his roi he has definitely brought some prices home..
steady works not more than 7 days apart going back to the beginning of june

R5 #7 law abiding (4-1)

drop to maiden claiming ,3rd off the layoff is a good angle without the fact that this trainer is really good with it..his 2 msw efforts at this level makes him very tough and don't think this is a scary drop (somethings wrong)

R11 #4 leisurewear (7-2) **

R3 #3 barone marchis (7-2)

lots happening going to it's 5th career start

nice 2nd in start 2 after not doing much in debut

start 3 sealed track and ridiculously wide trip

trainer excellent 2nd off layoff and claim

irad rides first time

R4 #7 gandy dancing (10-1)

R5 #7 good measure (8-1)

R7 #7 handy (8-1)

trainer is awful so interesting irad stays aboard for a 2nd go.. did nothing in 1st two off the layoff at mth but the 3rd last out was a big improvement and in an extended sprint type race (7f) which is the type of race he's running today.. 2 wins and a 2nd by a nose in his last 3 attempts doing this (1mile,7f and 1 mile all at AQU)

R8 #5 stolen base (8-1)

a no show last out in the g1 belmont derby at 1 1/4 miles but at 21-1 and off an over 2 month layoff I wonder if that was more for a little exercise than a serious effort..with that possibility now shoots for a middle distance g2 at a mile which is a much more realistic spot.. very talented consistent horse when running in the right spot.. great connections and a solid 4f five days ago

R9 #5 yes yes (12-1)

if favorite (#5 golden pal @ 1-2) is up to his best effort this field is history..imo very evenly matched beyond the favorite ..with all the speed in this race I think mine is the most likely to sit off the pace a bit

R10 #3 regal rebel (6-1)

like the gradual fade mid pack vs msw in her last..doesn't bother me that it was on turf and today's is on the dirt..drops into mcl's today and irad hops aboard for the 1st time..like in his 2nd start that he was able to be on the lead to the 3/4's vs msw company..think 7f at this level might be a good fit

dmr

R1 #2 eddie's last (20-1 ml..12-1 @ 1 hour to post)

R7 #3 oncoming (20-1)
R8 #9 bad sneakers (8-1)

I can vouch for the graveyard. Tough go for me lately.

flashes of life here and there but overall been a rough go for a few months now..dropped the last 4 today after a good start early..I'm just posting picks and not playing (that's known by most in here)... have a bad memory but think my performance assessment is in the ballpark

OK yeah maybe give it a spin if you see something you really like. Points are worth nothing till the store reopens and who knows when that will be?
