Flynn in the CTBA Stakes @ Del Mar today...she set the track record @ Pleasanton in her debut, smoking 5 furlongs in 21.55, 44.06, 55.92 (note the final furlong in under 12 seconds)...Pleasanton does run fast, but i checked the charts from thatr day, and this filly ran considerably faster than everyone else on the card...two hporses fromn that race have already returned to win, and she's trained by Steve Miyadi, who is hitting a whopping 32% from 245 starters (i guess you can add him to the list of "super-trainers")...she's 3/1 on the morning line, but the fact she's coming out of a maiden claimer @ Pleasanton should keep the price fair...i like this filly a lot today...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-1153504749575050832006-07-21T13:59:00.000-04:002006-07-21T13:59:00.000-04:00E - Thanks for pointing that out.

So yeah, I think we'd have to find some value in the doubles for sure.<BR/><BR/>Ward/Oxley also have one in the second tomorrow that's been burning up the track in the AM. Timeless Treasure (Pulpit) - a mere $325,000 purchase (it's nice to have money, eh?) and a half to the G1 Matron winner a few years back, Marylebone.Alan Mannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12570505944559196118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-1153498984163343232006-07-21T12:23:00.000-04:002006-07-21T12:23:00.000-04:00Both 2yo's you mentioned were very impressive, but...Both 2yo's you mentioned were very impressive, but looks to me like there may be a better one in today's 2nd at Belmont.<BR/><BR/>Summer Wildfire, $725k yearling purchase by Ward/Oxley, appears to be living up to his sales price in the AM. By Forest Wildcat out of a Premiership dam, this one is bred top and bottom to be precosious and fast.<BR/><BR/>Will likely be a short price in win pool but perhaps may be some value in the Daily Double if you can decifer the first.<BR/><BR/>EAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
