I kinda like Stream Cat though; love these Black Minnaloushe horses on the turf.Alan Mannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12570505944559196118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-1150996215165697142006-06-22T13:10:00.000-04:002006-06-22T13:10:00.000-04:00I think Showing Up in his first turf start on the ...I think Showing Up in his first turf start on the rail is kind of a throw out, but he's proven to be a tougher colt than I gave him credit for so far. I like Go Between (and Stream Cat of course) but all three will get a lot of attention for young horses going off 7 week layoffs. I liked Outperformance's last at Belmont. I'll take him.<BR/><BR/>But don't listen to me. I haven't cashed a ticket since Jazil. I'm going to try to win it all back with Last Emperess and the cut back in distance in the 8th at Belmont tomorrow. I also bowed out of my 133-1 USA World Cup dream this morning.
