Title: Queens plate
Post by: girly on June 22, 2008, 08:15:50 AM
I\'ve got a lot of confidence in the Americans in this race. In looking for value plays I wonder if 3 EET has a chance of rounding out a super along with 1 D.F and 15 TTT Thoughts any one?

9,10 / 9,10,12,13 /
9,10,12,13,11

$1 trifecta = $24. Post-wise, it\'s very odd.

What\'s so odd about it when Thoro has 1 & 15 as Live long shots? I was asking for commentary. At least you\'ve always had the cojones to put your opinions out there. Kudos to you Shahanan.

Speaking of the Queens Plate, does anyone know what the plans are for Harlem Rocker?  He disappointed badly on the artifical surface in the prep for today\'s race, but I didn\'t notice anything about whether he came out of the race OK  or what the plans are going forward. He looked like another top prospect.

He worked in company this week with 3YO 1X horse and was all out to beat him. They concluded that he is a better dirt horse and this Synthetic is not his stuff. Stronach then called an audible and is running the Filly on two weeks rest.

I have heard from a reasonably reliable source Lynch was high on her all spring. But this is a Stronachs call here. Lynch passed on several Big Pots in 3YO Filly Stakes races all spring based on her TG numbers.

And now he is wheeling back on two weeks rest. Not his style but he is not the boss. And the boss wants to win this race no matter who is running. Colt or Filly. With four weeks rest she runs over the top of these. With two your guess is as good as mine. And the Trainers.........

girly, I did not add commentary previous and will just say that I have been dabbling in making speed figs and I have Shadowless pretty fast, with a possibility to win...definitely ITM.  Emma Jean is getting it done in hockeyland, and I like tha chances..not very scientific, b ut it\'s getting close to post.

Ah! Very kind, but too late for me -I\'ve already made my stand. Turned everything off due to Tornado warning. Good Luck!

Yeah - I got it all (WP, EX, TRI and SUP) but it wasn\'t nearly as sweet as it could have been. I used the 5 horse liberally but it ended up chaulky. I hate paying Unc Sam on small super\'s like that but its better than tearing up tix. OH CANADA...

Buck you did good but TGAB said it maybe going to be like that.

Read his first sentence where he said the \"3 Favs were 2-4 lengths faster than the field\"

The Big 2 ran to form and beat the rest by the 2-4 he mentioned.

Ginger Brew did the same thing turning for home today that she did on dirt at GP. Little momentum loss but closed gamely. She is still a good one.

Good to see winning trainer Attfield in the winners circle looking classy wearing a Top Hat and not a Beer Belly.

Right Babe............
