Title: Top Leese
Post by: SoCalMan2 on June 25, 2007, 11:04:17 AM
Was just futzing around the red board room and noticed that your picker selected this 30-1 shot who finished second in the nightcap at Holly on Sunday.  The horse was a firster from very obscure connections.  What made you guys pick it?

Hi SoCalMan2,

The race itself, workouts and breeding.  
With low-level maidens, I was looking for 1st timers to bet.
Both Top Leese and Garmir (the main pick) had worked well for this.  
Sires Old Topper and Swiss Yodeler have been successful on poly per
my informal tracking of results. (Swiss Yodeler, especially, last
winter with the Mike Harrington connection was spectacular.)
