I have been wanting for Shadow to run since i loved him in the La Derby.

I was thinking big odds in this 11 horse field :

clear favorite Smarty Jones)probably 7/5
Shadowland has the
8th best beyer last race
10th best lifetime best beyer

8-1 ML does that seem a big underlay to anyone else?

Its because its Pat Day. He basically owned that track from the late 70s to the late 90s. He could be on a mule against graded stakes horses and he'd be single digit odds at OP and in Kentucky.

I have him rated in the middle of the field. He's a factor in the exotics. 8/1 seems about right if you judge him from the LeCompte rather than the La.

Kingfin,

I like the horse, I have him in the futures at 125-1, think he has a big chance in the Ark, i just think at 8-1 is a big underlay.

still will most likely will be my key.
