Best betting race of the year so far coming up IMO. The three classic winners are double digits offshore. West Coasts\'s TGs will be probably be a cut below Tapwrit\'s Belmont, but that\'s just speculation. Will the Haskell be slow on TGs? who will move forward if either, Girvin or Mccraken? The Curlin and The Jim Dandy, the only two turn races for their respective days, any chance for a number anomaly? A couple lightly raced ones, Fayeq and Pavel, not sure if Pavel is going though. Pavel may be a bet in the Jerkens. Looking for signs of life. \"Where is Jeff Spicoli, anyone. Yes Desmond?\"

Tight for time but I\'m going to try to do a seminar. If so we\'ll do an email.

Will be looking closely at Gunny\'s price.  Has that big number on his sheet, been training great, and jogged in his last.  If he hits the FOY fig, he wins this at a big price.

The Forego looks like a great betting race as well.

Reading a little into Outplay heading for the Pa. Derby, I\'m guessing one or both of TAPs horses are ready to fire. Wonder if they didn\'t want anymore competition up front for AD. Personally, it\'ll be hard to get me off Tapwrit in this one, he hasn\'t really missed a beat. The KD was, well the KD. The Bluegrass was orchestrated in my eyes. He beat IWC handily and probably knocked IWC out for the Haskell as well. Third, fourth , or fifth choice in this race I\'ll take.

Agreed if Gunnie gets back to that number, he wins and you get paid handsomely. I\'m a little skeptical, but best of luck!

Going to be a great day no matter what.

Looking at the M/L, it seems Irap got no respect from the oddsmakers despite getting compliments from the likes of Girvin whom he beat in Ohio.  If one takes the one-hit wonders of 2017 theme seriously, gotta go for Fayeq!

Gerard

Irap also trounced the West Viginia Derby winner in Indiana, looking to see if that number is a toll taker once the tg\'s or seminar are ready.

Fayeq will be used. 1st out, tough post, closed strongly on a good one. 2nd out, something went wrong. The allowance number will probably be light, but the price won\'t be.

I can\'t handicap the race without the Jim Dandy figures.

Cloud Computing drew well here and the issue for me with Good Samaritan(came home 35.98 wrapped up late)would be if he ran too fast.

Agree that Fayeq will be used from the outside.

Gerard

Good Samaritan going to have a crowd at the rear as well. Will have a hard time trying to assign a new top to any of them.
