Black-eyed Susan Stakes

[prist]

Race looks fairly straightforward, IMHO.

BEAUTIFUL GIFT 8/5
ADVENTURING 3
THE GRASS IS BLUE 6
ARMY WIFE 6

BEAUTIFUL GIFT looks to be sitting on a big one for Baffert. 😀 Why did they pass on the Oaks? MALATHAAT?

ADVENTURING: Can she pair? TRAVEL COLUMN bounced off a similar top in the Oaks for Cox, but as Jerry pointed out she came unglued heading towards the gate.

ARMY WIFE and THE GRASS IS BLUE are the other two I would consider. Both have 6 tops and need a forward move to win. Could happen, I guess, but need to be compensated for the risk. I guesstimate 6/1 is fair odds.

The Baffert filly a total flop off a pattern that was \"live\" as far as I\'m concerned. HmmmðŸ¤"
