Well Armed

I think its Awesome Gems turn.

Go Between takes this and the BC Classic and wins Fake Track Horse of theYear.

Mast Track. He seems to be in the improve, has great jockey and has won at the distance. Should be a decent price.

I like go between as well. I think overall however well armed has been keeping alot better company.

Hi

I like Well Armed on top as well. A long shot possibilty might be Delosvientos. The longer the better for this guy, but 10 furlongs might even be too short. Of the speedsters, I like Barcola with the best chance of wiring the field.

I am excited!

Best day of racing in California all year

[Strategic Maneuver]

I love Mast Track, I've had the love thing going with Mizzenmast since he went to stud and I'm pulling for Delosvientos since I bred and raised his dam. No matter what, it's going to be a great race. I'm already over the moon since Dearest Tricksi and Tiz E. did well.

Great race. Go Between really laid it down.

Big Brown, Curlin blah blah blah, Go Between is my BC Classic pick

[ratherrapid]

Nice to see a Grade 1 10f race run in 2:01, not 2:07. I think they've made great improvements to the surface this year. I think its comparable to Hollywood park right now as far as synthetics goes. Seems to play very fairly for sprints and routes. Times have been pretty reasonable as well, not too fast, not too slow.

Pretty exciting when the weekend's 2 big races come up with such great finishes.

i'm actually quite impressed.
