Title: Rail Trip always looks vulnerable on the sheets....
Post by: covelj70 on July 08, 2010, 05:08:41 PM
....just like Zenaytta.

Problem is he hardly ever loses. She never looses, at least he gets beat once in awhile.

At the weights, it looks like Awesome Gem and Richard\'s Kid should both have a chance to beat Rail Trip if they ran to their tops but he has looked vulnerable to me many times before based on the TGs and has aired so I think I will take a pass on this one.

Thoughts?

Cove:

Can\'t imagine a pace meltdown here. I was trying to beat him too, but will wait for DelMar.

I believe Gio Ponti is more vulnerable. Everyone is of the thought he will improve off of the Manhattan return. It was a huge effort and may actually set him back. Besides, he\'s getting into the bad habit of waiting when he hits the front. Standard slow pace going 1 3/8 at Belmont doesn\'t make it easier.


Good Luck,
Joe B.

Will try to beat both faves- Richard\'s Kid does like the 1  1/4 miles and can also use underneath Rail Trip for saver exacta.  Likewise using Bearpath to win and under Gio in ex.  Bear is training like a bear, good post, a 4yr old Dynaformer can move up and should def be right there.
Bel R5 Love and Havoc finally got turf last start, can move up and was just gelded.
Mth R5 Ponzi Scheme wire to wire.
