Good job Mike. You play a heck of a pick up sticks game. You were right and I was wrong. Early in the year Bayern, Indianapolis and SI were my top three for a little while. I got off of Bayern and couldn't get back on. He looks like the new Game On Dude. Indianapolis looks like he's training good for his comeback for his first race in a long time since getting sick. SI is not what I thought he could be. Maybe he needs a new trainer or just to go to stud.

Anytime J Bravo has a LIVE horse in the Haskell,lookout!,think Just Call Kenny's of the pace running style is perfect for this race loaded with speed...ditto for Medal Count and the filly Untapable...Have seen many races loaded with speed,and the frontrunner still won,but don't think that will be the case today.

What do you want- egg in your Beer? Well you might just get your wish, I'm seeing Beer with egg on his face after this one. He'd have more of a chance of playing pick up sticks with his butt cheeks than Bayern has of winning this one. I'll bet you a can of chopped liver and a beer that SI wins this one. Wildcat Red has a shot at it though and very well could be in the top three. He ain't chopped liver. I can't put Untappable on top but I have to put her in the next two spots in the tri along with others while singling SI on top. I like the no lasix for him and he might sit back longer than most think before taking over. Definitely the most talented here so worth a try in the tri and WP at 8-1 ML. Wildcat has been training like a cougar on the prowl and is tempting to use at 10-1 ML, but I'm sticking with SI. Good luck.

No mention of Wildcat Red at all ? Is he chopped liver ?

I think Bayern can take this one, can't dismiss his ability here, I also like a long shot in Just Call Kenny, his last race at Monmouth was a good set up for this race, might just be this good at this distance. Wildcat Red is too good to overlook here also. Encryption could be ready roll wire to wire, he has to prove he is this good.

So are you forgetting about Wildcat Red?

Medal Count is a plodder, though a classy one. If he needs to dig down for a surge, the quick twitch capacity isn't there. We had a clinic in the Belmont when three horses bred to stay came to the wire side by side, and the one with Tapit blood was able to surge.

Your expectations of pace seem well founded, so Bayern and Social Inclusion, at least, will hit the final 1/16th with their quick twitch capacity exhausted also. What Untapable will have left remains to be seen.

Unless you have an enormous following who pile onto him, it looks good for Medal Count at a price.
