Thats Jocks, Owners and Trainers, look for his assistants to be listed on trainers of all his horses if his appeal fails. In the Prioress I like Win McCool.

The 8th race NW1ot ALW is as contentious an allowance race as I have seen in a while. The rail runner, Cool Springs Saint, will be an underlay due to his placing to Afrashad on Belmont Day. He fell into a perfect rail trip that day against a group that was uninspiring except for the winner. He also was coming off a long layoff that day so is a bounce candidate today. I will leave him off my tickets as he seems to prefer the runner up slot even when he runs well. <BR/><BR/>Do not fall for the trap of discounting Time To Grow Up due to the claim away from Lake. This horse is in terrific form and Schosberg has had some success taking from Lake, specifically with Fines Creek.<BR/><BR/>Moons Halo has to be on the ticket as does Dutrow's Theatrical Glory, a winner of three straight, but have no idea what to do with OZ, who may just have hated the inner, and Hennigs import. Tough race.<BR/><BR/>This P4 is a crap shoot but whoever nails it will be on the IRS line.<BR/><BR/>If anyone has any ideas let me know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-1152308354311014392006-07-07T17:39:00.000-04:002006-07-07T17:39:00.000-04:00...there were some rumors swirling last week that ......there were some rumors swirling last week that all was not right with David Junior, and he might bypass the race...based on that, some British bookmakers had taken an inordinate amount of action on Ouija Board and some of the other contenders...at this point in time he appears set to run, but it'll be interesting to see how he performs...as for Ouija Board, she appears to be the consensus selection, and last i saw she was being offered at around 3/2...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-1152303289210567012006-07-07T16:14:00.000-04:002006-07-07T16:14:00.000-04:00Did anyone see that Steven Asmussen (One of the na...Did anyone see that Steven Asmussen (One of the nations top trainers in terms of wins and earnings) has accepted a six month suspension handed down by the Louisiana Racing commission for a drug positive on one of his horses....Couple of questions if anyone knows the answer......<BR/>Is the suspension just for his runners in the state of Louisiana or is it nationwide ? and why is he choosing to accept such a long suspension without appealing ? I assume one of his assistants will take over as offical trainer for his stable, but what role is Asmussen allowed to play while suspended ? Is he allowed on track ? Can he not handle any of his horses while suspended ? Or will they just not be allowed to race under his name ? And by the way, it was only 1 race against a small field, but where do I sign up to bet Henny Hughes at 20-1 in the sprint. That 1st race back was ridiculous.....Mclaughlin runners are red hot all over the place......Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17542769445644908386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-1152302634011016742006-07-07T16:03:00.000-04:002006-07-07T16:03:00.000-04:00aaGreghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17542769445644908386noreply@blogger.com
