Title: Proud Spell-Oaks Selection
Post by: Silver Charm on May 02, 2008, 04:00:59 PM
Nice Pick. 50% chance to win in the Analysis. The mutual was tasty.

Am in pretty heavy on the Oaks/Derby with CJ and hit Proud Spell pretty good with defensive saves with the 11.

Had the 9 won the race before it would have been a helluva day.but no complaints.

All starts anew tomorrow and will go with several bombs in Derby Exotics now that I have some leverage.

Thanks TG

I was really imnpressed with the ride the kid put on this one. Cool as a cucumber. He gave PS the perfect trip.

Totally agree. He got his spot early then he and the guy on the 10 dropped the anchor once they hit the backstetch.

Prado was forced to move early and wide on the 11 to have any chance with the slow pace and lost his closing punch.

Sometimes this can cause a chain reaction in the Derby where people start sending from everywhere to not let it occur again.

The guy who needs to start getting some real respect is trainer Larry Jones

And oh yes that was another D Wayne Lukas sire there.
