two4nine · From my FB Page Kentucky Derby Prep Season and Championship Series races: The #6 AVIE'S QULAITY is the horse to beat in this race. Best in class, highest speed rating in previous race, and best jockey at Fairgrounds will make this horse the favorite. The only concern is the 49 day layoff, but the distance is never in question, as with others in the race. I like the the horse starting on the rail #1 MALIBU HIGH with his high class rating and closing speed. He won at this track in his last race, and the only thing keeping me from putting him on top is the question mark at this distance. I also like the #2 HEITAI getting out ahead early in this race, and making a push towards the wire. Put #3 Fear the Kitten, #4 Oxbow, and #7 Golden Soul in exotics. · 126 days ago ·

Why did Lukas wait so long to get Optimizer back on grass?

Sent off as the 3-1 second choice in the Kent, Optimizer was coming into yesterday’s race off a sharp allowance win on the Saratoga turf. The allowance score was his first win since his debut victory, and only his fourth try on the turf. That is, until yesterday’s big win. Clearly this horse has tak...Read More

AndyScoggin · Now you're talking, Brian. Fast Times is one of my favorite movies. I can recipe most of the movie. Maybe Lukas needed to smack himself in the skull with his Vans to remember how effective the grass could be, "That's my skull!" · 242 days ago ·
