THE FACTOR: The Rebel Stakes (G2) on Saturday at Oaklawn Park

**gman2114** · 03-17-11, 08:38 AM

The Non Factor will be his new name after this race.

**zebra58** · 03-17-11, 09:12 AM

sway away also in from cali w/gomez up, i think both runners run huge

**TonyP** · 03-17-11, 11:24 AM

Agree The Non Factor after this race. big deal he set a track record on a blazing fast track that makes almost anything look fast. wont be able to wire them in this one.

**foryourhandicap** · 03-17-11, 11:35 AM

The change of tracks and added distance will suit Sway Away. Would be a shock if The Factor could handle the distance.

**zebra58** · 03-17-11, 12:01 PM

think baffert believes he can handle the distance

**mikemca** · 03-17-11, 12:08 PM

I think Sway Away might actually be the favorite come post time.Regardless though I don't see him or the factor offering any value

I'd be quite impressed with Baffert/Garcia if this turns out to be the case, which I guess would be nothing new.

**TonyP** · 03-17-11, 12:32 PM

Hope a lot peeps wager on the factor so I can get better odds on my pick.

**Double_Tap** · 03-17-11, 03:33 PM

Not a good race for The Factor!

**Double_Tap** · 03-17-11, 03:33 PM

Sway away looks best here, we'll see

**TonyP** · 03-18-11, 04:22 PM

maybe archarcharch, elite alex, j p's gusto,jw blue

**zebra58** · 03-19-11, 07:42 AM

going to watch a some replays in a few, the the horse that ran 3rd to the factor/sway, came back & crushed the san felp field

**Thunder Gulch** · 03-19-11, 08:21 AM

I don't know guys....not a lot of early speed to pressure

**Seattle Slew** · 03-19-11, 09:01 AM

Like Sway Away as well, but not expecting much value. Everyone seems to like him.

**superfast158** · 03-19-11, 10:25 AM

Scratch elite alex !
Sway Away will be closing like a beast

**zebra58** · 03-19-11, 10:57 AM

got a strong feeling that jeremy ropse on the #5 upsets in the 9th

in the rebel, gp gusto put sway away back at delmar, likes this tack here but im weiry of the factor. He may like this track and being an off breed of danzig,this race will tell his future. Im going alittle deep in this race because im keying a couple horses in the 8th with 4 horses here and using the 5 in the 9th

in the rebel im using the factor, jp's gusto, calebs posse and arch,archarch

**Rio DiNero** · 03-19-11, 11:44 AM

IDK about this race, but I'm going with long shots in this leg of the PK3 and using #7 Blind Luck in the prior leg and #6 Timber Wildcat in the later leg. Also, going heavy on Blind Luck to win.

**mikemca** · 03-19-11, 11:47 AM

I'm on Tidal Pool in the 9th and Alternation in 10th

**Jay Price** · 03-19-11, 03:16 PM

Alternation for me too. Needs a good trip though.

In just three career races, THE FACTOR has shown his worth to a place among the most exciting three-year-olds in the nation. The Rebel Stakes (G2) on Saturday at Oaklawn Park will be the next important step in determining how far his talent will take him. The son of the WAR FRONT colt’s trainer, Bob Baffert, will go to OAKLAWN PARK for the second straight year as a proving ground for the Kentucky Derby (G1). http://FullCardReports.com

you'd think w/so much promotion behind this thread you'd drop us a free pp for the race....

**TonyP** · 03-19-11, 06:07 PM

need anything except the factor, sway away for second leg of pk3

**mikemca** · 03-19-11, 06:10 PM

Damn Alternation late scratch ...Threw a hissy fit in the gate

**TonyP** · 03-19-11, 06:19 PM

The Factor got me and now know he is for real.

**Brewers in 7** · 03-19-11, 06:23 PM

Top 3 year old in the country after that, he was drawing away at the end.

I got a dollars worth of the triple, and I missed a dollar super, I needed JP Gusto 4th.

**Mistongo** · 03-20-11, 12:26 AM

Impressive win, drawing away in the stretch. Hope he stays healthy!
