miff: Rob,


We\'ll leave the derby to rest.Believe horses can spend themselves pre race. Watched it and commented to my pals that I had never seen AP washy before a race,like pre derby.


Pletcher has 31 horses entered thurs/fri/sat, wonder if the white mercedes is in town as he is winning at 40+% at Belmont.

Mike

miff: \"as fast as he is\"

Jerry,

..who would that be,I missed it?

Mike

TGJB: Wait, what? Mike, White Mercedes? Is someone posting under your name?

miff: Ha ha, thought you\'d get a kick. Assume you have mentioned TAP and KPM runners going wild last few weeks and they have obvious, by figs, Belmont winner if AP lies down on Sat.

TGJB: Don\'t know if you caught it but the BC announced a new out of competition testing program, your friend Scollay is running it.

miff: Yes,I did.Dr Scollay trying very hard, with little $$, to do something good for integrity.

TGJB: This time she\'s got the BC money to work with. And they should spend some on freezing and retesting samples.

Michael D.: this looks like the Smarty Jones Belmont without a Birdstone.

I doubt AP is going to run a fast 12f, but I\'m not sure that gets us anywhere. slim pickings.

Frosted and Mat are ok, but they look more like Rock Hard Ten and Eddington types.

19 wins in 39 starts (49%) and 79% in the money. Yowza.

jerry: Maybe I\'m wrong but I thought Materiality had run a -3. No?

miff: Jerry,

Close enough, both Mat and Fraud-sted neg -2 but earned a bit differently.


Mike

ringato3: Michael D

At their tops, how far away were rock hard ten and eddington from smarty, at his top.   4-5 points.  8-10 lengths

Frosted and materiality are 1 point slower than AP.

Big difference, IMO

Rob

TGJB: You\'re not kidding. If it wasn\'t Michael I would have ridiculed him.

bellsbendboy: Eddington, nor RHT, were stakeswinners when they contested the Belmont.

Both Materiality & Frosted are grade one kings.

While the Freak figures gate to wire if either of the former bring their A game
it will be a race.  bbb

miff: Too bad Tencendur isn\'t running, he\'s \"only\" 2.5 points slower,right?
