Title: Union Rags......2 Turns?
Post by: jack72906 on October 31, 2011, 08:16:31 PM
Dixie Union isn\'t exactly your classic distance sire, but he\'s only going 8.5 on Saturday. Anyone think he\'ll have an issue with that?

Also curious to hear any thoughts on how training at Fair Hill might help him eventually outrun his pedigree.

Good Luck everyone!

Can\'t wait to bet against him.  I don\'t know what I\'m happier about, betting against Union Rags or Uncle Mo @ anything close to that M/L in the Classic.  I don\'t think the distance is really the issue with Union Rags, but he\'s already shown you what he can do and I think he\'s more likely to back up than to pair or advance.  And there are at least four horses in the race that I think stand a good chance of moving up.  

Good luck.  HP
