Got an idea on a number coming out of of the Pan yesterday?  Legitimate Belmont threat?

Beyer was a 101, FWIW.

I was told on Sunday morning that Casino Drive received a PRELIMINARY Beyer of 99 and that the 3yr old maiden in the 5th Unbridled\'s Heart received a 100 Prelim.Beyer.

The track was kinda quick late in the card and given his rail trip, probably a TG 1-ish.Interesting that CD had hardly any real work between quarantine and other things.

No fear, Tricky will have Big Brown sporting flaming nostrils and lightning bolts from his ass end in the Belmont, assuming he wins the Preakness.

Miff -

I\'m now seeing a Beyer of 101.

Any idea where all the money came from on Casino Drive, and whether it\'s likely to show up again in 4 weeks?

Given his inexperience, lack of tangible accomplishments, the travel, and the lack of work, I thought Casino Drive was a mandatory play-against at 6/5.  Guess I was wrong.

I wonder whether he\'s now set up for a second-off-the-plane bounce or whether he\'s just that good.

Bit,


There is one thing about Hopkins/Beyer and crew that I like which is their willingness to change a fig.Their preliminary figs are changed rather frequently, so you may have something later than I got on Sunday morning.

Funny thing about the money on CD,it appears to have come from the \"sushi\" crew cause there is no way this horse could be 6/5 in NY off his one foreign PP. He opened short and sustained the money throughout the betting.
