Only Horse Racing !
Yeah I know. Try do better next time. But I started this recently and I am mostly translating the posts of my blog in portuguese that make some sense in english.
Looking for a second opinion in Lawyer Ron.
Lawyer Ron will be back to the Saratoga track this saturday trying
to go for encore of his explosive performance in the Whitney last month.
If you, like me, was caught by surprise that day, no problem.
The DRF ask for a review in the record time, because was a shocker...
Lawyer Ron was geting ready for a good one, his speed figures was very
solid in two tough losses in very strong races.
But he pulverized a very strong field and put a comparatively 12 lenghts
over the very respectable Ginger Punch in teh Go For Wand. More here.
So the Muilti million dollars questions :
Can Todd Pletcher maintain his form for saturday Woodward ?
If he can... How about that B.C. Classic, instead of the mile dirt ?
Take a look at the great Steve Haskin report at Bloodhorse.com.
Saturday in Saratoga !

Because I said so....
Almost, anyway....
Speed numbers of Grasshooper showed he is the rise. The ones of Sightseeing, a possible bounce.
Looked like very hot afternoon, as Calvin Borel kept wiping sweat from his face as he lead
Street Sense to thepost.
C P West vent for the first quarter a little to fast. And when Grasshooper settled in the lead
in a favourable pace with Street Sense stalking not far away, the plot was set for the stretch run.
Well I never imagined that Grasshooper would ran that big, but I will give myself a break.
Anywhom, as I said the Exata 4/5 was the way. It was a tough bet,
because of the short prices in all Stree Sense's combinations. So I went for the Trifecta/Super combo and Helsinki sinked my boat. As always....

Street Sense back in the Travers
Kentucky Derby winner, Street Sense runs again today at Saratoga in the million dollars
Travers Stakes.
In the absence of Curlin, Any Given Saturday and Rags to Riches, the past year 2yo champion
renew his bid to the 3yo championship against a field very similar to one he beat in the
Jim Dandy Stakes. Including runners-up C P West and Sightseeing. Probably,
seconds choices today.
With no clear pace, C P West can benefit if he can get a calm trip in front.
In addition with the longer distance closer, Sightseeing would sure want a hotter pace to give him a better shot at Street Sense, but I would not discard some bouncing in this outting.
Street Sense looks like is in the rise a I think will get a good one at the Travers, specially
with Calvin Borel's knack for graded stakes wins at Saratoga.
So if a little wishful thinking I guess thatC P West will get tired and Sightseeing will not have the legs this time.
In order to get better price in a exacta with Grasshopper that put on giant effort last time
and hoping that he does not bounce.
Street Sense to winner's circle again. Of course !
