Diodoro

[shanahan]

well, look slike Cohen had seen enough - he\'s got some apprentices today at very light weight.

Yep

Since Fairmount decided that Diodoro was finished, hit for 2 winners last 2 racing days. 5 winners in 3 days Saw an apprentice, Vasquez and  2 for Cohen.

Good Luck today !!

When did I declare him finished LOL

I know better than that.  He had to get that Dex positive out of the way we now know in hindsight.  

How did Pletcher do in the Tampa Bay Derby today?  2nd Choice and LASTTT...Not too good for a guy that is BACKKKK as you said esp in his 2nd home of Floridaaaa.  Tough times on the Derby Trail.

Names of trainers winning the Derby preps last few weeks:

Mandella, Sano, Lynch, Courville, Asmussen off the top of my head.

Some names you wouldn\'t expect with lots of Baffert and Pletcher getting beat or scratched.  Very interesting.  Wonder if CDI is keeping an eye on the big points races. . . . .

Pletcher at Gulf:

130 starts  38 wins   29%  
4.4 million in purses

#1 in %
#1 in $$ won

Yep he is washed up too!!  LOL

The Tampa horse was the \"wise guy\" horse but it was 1st start 2022.

Nice pick of Grantham on the board earlier.
Nice pattern of paired 8\'s on TG
Late jock switch to Saez .


37 to 1 and a $52 exacta LITE.
