Yes Master, Leo

[asH]

unless Sleuse lives up to his Feb 1 GP speed performance, to change this race dynamics I dont see any surprises

Ecton - if a lot of speed Velasques has to move later than sooner
Joppa flats- seems to handle any kinda pace trainer/jock connections

[asH]

Bel 4th, this is an All Star MSW

Spaniard- last two races transfer well to turf, turf pedigree
Indy world- dirt form transfers excellently to turf, Big Turf pedigree
Memorized- Coa ,known to get in trouble and quit might have more than shown at 4-1 last
Pynaformer- not bad last
Waltzing With Blue- Big turf pedigree, good works
Get Stormy- did all the work last first time out

Umbra- moved prematurely last, should be fav..on paper anyway

Umbra's last race (pace wise) was as tough as today's, he couldnt catch a break today

Bel 6th Holiday Trip is scratched on the TVG board..why? loved the horse NOT the jock.

Holiday Trip- love this horse, but, Castellano always moves into hot pace to early

Al Basha- love Desormeaux, coming out the clouds, perfect distance

Snowstalker- last race(5th) Lukas used 6f races to condition Spaniard for turf (other trainers do it too), Snowstalker's last 3 were the best a trainer can do to prep his speed horse for distance...hint, adds Luzzi

[asH]

Bel 7th

Success Fee- running last out.. new trainer,new results
Borrowing Limit- jury still out

[asH]

Bel 9th

tough Rice entry
Lost Without You- cake walked every time on turf, potential unknown

Exonerated- when faced tougher showed little, take a stand against.

[asH]

Bel 8th- Lost Without you DQ'ed, I'm sure Johnny saw the shadow of Merriweather... Velasquez like Cordero , still the man.

Bel 9th
Parc Des Princes- Oh Boy Castellano! either he's gonna burn him up, or find a way to lose, this Frankel horse better have a whole lotta class to win.

Mr. Sidney- 3.9million dollar horse won easy last Mott/Desormeaux, what more do you need

Baletti- Moved to early Jul18 ,Big move against Big Stick last, both top races, met some of these before.
