This weekend we have the Big Cap,Kilroe,Swale and waiting to hear some opinions from the sharps here.
I'm not usually a chalky type player, but there looks to be an ice cold double in The Kilroe and The Big Cap on Saturday that might actually have some value in it (maybe it pays $20-$25 or so given the size of the fields and the presence of Game on Dude in the Cap).

Race 9 Kilroe- (3) Suggestive Boy

Race 10 Big Cap- (1) Ron the Greek


Good luck, there looks to be some good racing from coast to coast on Saturday.

here's where i am. not crazy about the sequence. get lucky.

1st 2,6

2nd 3,8

3rd 1,3,10(if 12 draws in, single the 12, no 1,3,10)

4th 8,9

5th 5,7,10

so it's either
2,6/3,8/1,3,10/8,9/5,7,10 for 36 bucks

or it's
2,6/3,8/12/8,9/5,7,10 for 12 bucks

Lots of nice carryovers today, including the Santa Anita Pick 5 of course: http://todayscarryovers.blogspot.ca/...ryover-at.html The video in this link is pretty funny, proving you can bet on just about anything.

Beldar C - Who do you see challenging Game on Dude early? He has shown that if no one pressures him early, he cuts out very reasonable fractions and hangs up W's. Handsome Mike? He often breaks poorly, has little interest, or quits after 6 panels. Take nothing away from RtG but he needs some pace help. Far from a gimme, imo.

Good luck and enjoy the races on saturday!

I definitely see the pace being fair. You mentioned Handsome Mike for O'neill but I also think that John Scott especially with Martin Garcia aboard is gonna be sent. I mean what other chance does that horse have besides to try and gun it--and he's not cheap speed either, although certainly not as classy as Game On Dude.

The race is definitely not loaded with speed but I truly think RTG has legitimate excuses for his 2 races prior to his last which was obv a monster effort. Even his race 3 back where he finished 2nd to Fort Larned in the Whitney was tremendous. In my opinion The Whitney win at the Spa by Fort Larned may have been the most impressive dirt race that I saw any horse put in last year (the big reason I liked Fort Larned on BC day).

I also think that while Game on Dude has run some very nice races over the conventional dirt, that he is at his ABSOLUTE best on synthetic surfaces. I really think RTG has reached his full potential for Mott, and when Mott gets them going good they usually stay on form that way--especially with top class horses.

LONGSHOT PLAY FOR TOMORROW

1st Race Gulfstream- (4) Rough Winter ML 15-1

I have had my eye out for this horse in the mid claiming ranks since his race 2 back at Aqueduct where the track was a total conveyor belt and he put in a solid closing run to be 4th. His last race was awful (trust me, I bet on him), but now they have shipped him to Fla. to run on the grass which is his preferred surface anyway. There are several angles to this horse that show me he is well meant tomorrow, and I especially like the fact that they are bumping him up slightly in claiming price off that last race. The trainer that the the Engelhart/Gonzalez camp sent him to in Florida is an underrated grass trainer too, and he excels with his first time acquisitions. I also like the fact that he reaches out to his go to rider. This horse is definitely a live longshot tomorrow and could easily be overlooked even more than his 15-1 morning line. Good Luck.

I actually like his play. I dont have pp's in front of me, but how many times has game on dude won going a 1 1/4 distance? I think zero.

He won this race in 2011 under Chantal.

Or did you have Setsuko and were being facetious?

So, tru, 1 of the biggest beats ive had n my life. My point being, GOD has won bout 50% of his lifetime races. 8 of those 23 races were 1 1/4 races. He has won 2 of those. Although today, the track is speedier than usual & is def gonna aid GOD. Hopefully not tho. Ive got the 1,4 n pick3's & a pick4. Good edition of the big cap this year for sure

A mile & a quarter. Why is it so significant? Why does it seem to be such a huge task for horses getting 1 1/8 mile races no problem, to have such trouble getting the 1 1/4 route?? Thoughts please on how an extra 1/8 mile can mean so much & cause so many issues??

I hope they wheel the Dude back for Dubai. The ride he got last year was brutal.

No shot of this happening... His next race will most likely be the Charles Town Classic.
