Saturday 12/3/22 Tampa Bay Downs Races to Check out

10 race card all 2 year old races and I don't think any of them are on my list

I haven't checked the entries yet. I will when I have time.  

Race 9 : Super Chow has a well hidden pedigree and might turn out to be a graded Runner. WON

6f time 1.09.60

I'm with you on Tuskegee today, especially in the slop....Street Sense is my favorite off track sire.  I'm using him with Dubyuhnell, thinking Good Magic also a good off track sire, especially with his previous race in the slop at this track.

I'm going with a shot in the Demoiselle......Affirmative Lady, stretching out, still a maiden, but Motion must see something he likes in her.

all of yours were competitive and looked good ,Airman pinned down took a lot of mud, he should bounce back

first two 1st time 2 turns.

Yeah, thanks......happy with my picks, certainly.  Dubyuhnell especially impressive in good time for the track conditions, showed a good fighting spirit.  See how he comes along in the winter at Aqueduct, clearly loves the track and its general condition in the winter.  Agree about Airman, look forward to seeing how he comes out and does on fast tracks.

And wow, Affirmative Lady was very competitive in that race, the first around two turns.

And my top pick, Post Time, looked phenomenal coming from behind in the mud at Laurel......spoke about him in a different thread, but I think he should do well stretching out to two turns in the KD preps this winter, probably at AQ.  Loved the confidence and the far turn move, and thought jockey gave him a patient and non-stressful ride.

Don't bet Laurel ever, so surprised to see him go between 6/5 - 1-5 - even money, all in the last 4 minutes!  Doesn't take much to move the needle there, sure it wasn't my Benjamin that made any difference :)

I put him on the Classic list after I checked him out from one of your posts ,great find IMO. message 1399 12/1/22

He gave the 2nd place horse a huge handicap lead and was very impressive doing it.

The negative could be who he beat . It may not be as good as it looks !

Agreed.  That's why I hope connections take him up to AQ in the winter, see what he can do vs. more.  Love his style, enjoyed the jock's post-race interview too, very humble and grateful.  Be great to watch more humble connections compete against the Big Boys on the circuit.....there must be room for more than Baffert/Pletcher/Cox/Asmussen in the Derby Trail races/preps.

Wondering if you caught the Laurel Futurity and Post Time's race....and what you thought?  I think he progressed nicely, won impressively, overcoming a slow start.  And I actually really liked jock's ride!  Perhaps coming back from a drought, humbled, made him a more patient and non-assuming rider?
