Wow! I thought Spirit One would be around 5-1 after the scratch of Sudan.Lone Speed on Arlington turf is always dangerous.Thanks to all the dopes who bet einstein and Archipenko!

Thanks for letting me know Robin, I will correct that.

As for Arlington, wow. I was right that the European horses would win this race, but wrong about the non favored horses not being a factor.

After reading how Spirit One was racing previous to this race, I can see how he could do well, but man, I did not expect anyone to beat Mount Nelson or Archipenko

Nice blog, however, the 3rd of the YouTube races is the wrong race - instead of Ascot, England, its a Gr.3 race in India won by another completely different horse who happens to also be called Archipenko !

Big day Saturday can't wait to see Tizdejavu take on the world in the Secretariat, Precious Kitten in the Beverly D. and of course Einstein in the Million. To me this is basically the Breeders Cup Turf and F&M Turf all rolled into one awesome day of racing.

I would check out Jason Shandler's blog or our That Handicapping show for the Arlington race. I am thinking, there won't be much money in it to win, because the longshots have a slim chance to win with the talent here.
