The Forego

[zico20]

Big scratch in the :7: Falling Sky. If Clearly Now and Palace stay on form this is a two horse race. The only horse I see who can take a big improvement is the :10: Lightly raced and getting better every race. Versatile and loves Saratoga being 3-3. Never been out of the money. He is my long shot to hit the board.

Tossing :1: :4: :5: and using :2: :3: :9: in the super behind the three aforementioned horses. This is my favorite race of the day to watch.

Not giving up on :3: , VYJACK.

Rosario will put Zee Bros on the lead and play ball.
He needed his last and was beaten by a pretty nice runner.
On his best day this guy can win this, but he drifted out last time and I'm just not sure if he has lost interest all together... :confused:

20-1 is a fair price for a guy who will have position, but can he even think of holding off the big guys in here?...Clearly Now and Palace

IF I play, it is likely between the :1: Capo Bastone who owns a G1 win over the track and distance, or the :4: Zee Bros who is rounding into shape.

The only problem I have with the :4: is that last furlong. At six furlongs I think he could hold on for 3rd or 4th. But at 7 furlongs against these I think he folds. Who the hell is the trainer? Never heard of him.

Seth Benzel was based in NY until a few years ago when he just disappeared.
Turns out he was in Dubai.

Made a big splash when he began training (Frankel protege'?)...was one of those guys who didn't start many but had a high win % (like Motion or Tom Proctor).

EDIT: Benzel worked for Mott, not Frankel

I'm going to the :9: Weekend Hideaway.
He just blasted home setting race horse fractions{22/44.4/1:09/115:4} for his 3rd victory from 4 lifetime starts @ Saratoga.
Palace is Breeders Cup Sprint material,but I'm suspicious of him getting the 7th furlong.
Clearly Now looked great in his last,but he has a little knucklehead in him.....he's beat himself on more than one occasion.

:8: Clearly Now

[Speed Figure]

Bettors are really loving :3: Vyjack, bet down to half of his ML odds.

[Robert Fischer]

Race is wide open.

I don't like Clearly Now (I think he should be 7-2, not 6-5)

I don't know who I like.

:2: Big Business should not be at this price.. WP2xS

[Tom]

....by people who are down half their bankrolls! :lol: ;)

[Robert Fischer]

maybe palace as a default pick..

[Stillriledup]

So, if you boxed 8-10, two AMAZING looking horses on paper, you finish last and 2nd to last with neither jock perservering at the end? What was that all about?

[jettroofer]

$5 EB :2: :6: :10: :8:

ONLY reason I added the 2 is I heard him being touted on HR Radio by someone they were interviewing. Sometimes better to be lucky than good. LOL

[Tom]

Running a fast race appears to be a strong negative for many older horses.

[Some_One]

Why would you expect Clearly Now to run back to that figure? He's never run at Spa, bit of a layoff, never really came close to running that fig last time out. His best two races have been at the Bel 7f.

Didn't we just have this conversation a couple weeks ago when discussing variable change and Palace Malice?

[Tom]

Good horses son't have to take their track with them.
He had more than a couple of good figures to run back to that beat this mediocre bunch.

Race is wide open.

Robert,

What didn't you like about Clearly Now - it sounds like you graded this horse much lower than the public?
