I like the dam’s side a lot but I’m sure Smarty and others know more than I.

i like him a lot for a TC prospect next year. Sounds like Cox does, he is skipping the Juvenile and pointing him

to the TC in a recent interview. Said he has others for the Juvenile.

these are very good numbers for the Beyer system for 2 years this time of year for 8.5f races.  10/8/22 

Best Beyers : Leader Board

Main Track: more than one mile THROUGH 10/23/22 2 YEAR OLDS

Edit This angle worked great for the Juvenile Imo

All 3 Have 92 Beyers  or higher as 2 year olds at 8.5 f....... A positive Angle I  use for 3 year olds on the derby trail next year.

Speaking of TC candidates, Pletcher released an impressive FILLY a few days back. Julia Shining, Curlin, out of the AP Indy mare, Dreaming of Julia, overcame a slow start to circle the field in an about 7 furlong race at Keenland.  You need to see that race. Dreaming of Julia was a really nice filly, and her daughter might turn out to be even better!

This list is the projected 2 years old from our 2 year old list to be Classic distance prospects for next year
also between now and the end of the year more of these types  will be firsters and some will be added to this list
--
10/20/22 two  year olds for stretching out as 3 year olds  for the 2023 season.
Some haven't raced yet and some firsters between now  and 1/1/23 are turned loose with 
the classic distance in mind and the TC the goal.

First Peace! Appropriate name for these warlike times. I'll have to remember that one. Have you ever checked out a juvy filly trained by Pletcher named Munnys Gold; by Munnings, out of a Medaglia d'Oro? She ran a hole in the wind in her debut at Monmouth in June. Got a big Beyer(101), then went to the sidelines. She's back working.

Yes that's a good one, More Than Ready from back in the day to First Peace is very Appropriate  today.

Check his time and splits that last 1/8 was pretty good for a wired job and relaxed and easy and the 2nd

place Eastbound  closed nicely,late splits were sweet imo. Suggest you remember him too.

I think we talked about Munnys Gold, good to see Her working Again.

reminder for BC turf races.  The PP's and race charts between them   show different run ups,  Rail location changes, track condition fm,sf, gd, etc some of this you will find on the past race charts and not on the PP's, the splits are better on the race charts then on The PP's
same for rail position, run ups, some times weather conditions . Last Q ,1/8 time splits.etc
