thanks guys..at this point i think we are just as much fans as concerned about the mutuels but nothing wrong with hitting at 9-2 .. as you said str was able to settle just off the lone speed and had plenty left for the stretch..kendrick rode him great

was a win and you're in race for the breeders cup and likely have one more race before that..need a little luck but I think he'll be a serious contender in the bc mile

amazing how 2 turns on the dirt threw him for a loop in starts 3 and 4 but nothing but good things ever since putting him on the turf .. know it's not happening but I think he could possibly be a graded stakes horse on the dirt going 2 turns.. would love to see him try that if he runs next year .. my memory is horrible but seems like something you don't see much, if at all, in recent years or even further back

Hey STR: the track in question is CT. The Rider is Arnaldo Bocachica. Every time I look at that track Bocachica is riding one of the favs in the race about 80% of the time. It gets old. Wanted your thoughts on the matter. thx in advance.

and I am initially referring to the ML and then the $$$ comes in knocking his odds even lower. I guess that can create opportunities like tonight in RACE #3 a 30/1 shot beat Bocachica.

He was still getting the hang of things and remember that long race where the rider lost his iron leaving the gate. That had him running scared and upset early not having a clear idea what all was going on.
It took him several months to figure that out. Clement giving him the time to mentally grow and develop made this horse what he now is.

Thats the thing about the Ky. Derby. It’s always such hype leading up to it and everything these young horses are trying to cram in mentally, you see the back end effect on horses that then put it together and learn to breath, relax, understand, etc. it’s really something to see isn’t it. All the crazy hype from babies up to the race. Then, it’s all gone and it’s off to the Preakness and Belmont.
It happens every year. Never changes it doesn’t seem.

He sure did do a Hall of Fame job with Deterministic.
