Sorry I haven't been posting very much.  Work has been extremely busy but while I've been unable to provide much input, I've enjoyed reading the messages.  I really enjoy the extreme opinions on horses like Zenyatta. 

Here are some I am really looking carefully at on Saturday:

Juvenile Turf:  Viscount Nelson, Pounced and Interactif.  No real surprises with these but I also won't be shocked if another comes in.  I'll probably included these 3 in pick 3's but not really play the race much.

Turf Sprint:  California Flag is one of the best of the day in my opinion.  Both he and his full sister are downhill specialists and anyone who runs with him will be cooked.  I think you'll see the 21, 43 and change, 1:06 fractions but this time he doesn't stop.  I'll include Cannonball and Noble Court in pick 3's (see how confident I am).

Sprint:  Zensational, Fatal Bullet and Captain Candyman Can in pick 3's.  I guess I have to throw in Gayego as well.  Sheesh, the top 4 picks.  Sentimental choice is Fatal Bullet... the ultimate synth horse.

Juvenile:  Aikenite.  I love the form on this horse going in and the morning line is unbelievable.

Turf Mile:  Court Vision, Justenuffhumor and Goldikova.  I think Justenuffhumor has a great shot and he'll go off at 8-1 plus.  Love to say 'throw out the last' because I love horses with one race excuses.  They all run duds and obviously his last wasn't a true indication.  Court Vision may run the race of his life, now that his balls feel better.  I imagine that is a factor.

'Dirt' Mile:  Bullsbay, Pyro and Ready's Echo.  Ready's Echo is just a bombs away guess, I mean who really knows with this track.  Pyro I am going to include in pick 3's just because everyone hates his synth form, so the odds are too juicy.

Turf:  Conduit

Classic:  Colonel John, Zenyatta, Einstein and Rip Van Winkle.  I really love Colonel John at a nice price.  His synth and turf form are terrific and he is lightly raced and poised to run his career race here.  I disagree with the real experts here on Zenyatta.  To me, synthetic tracks are all about last quarters (similar to harness racing).   She comes home very fast and that makes her competitive with these.

Good luck everyone. 

Put to rest what you thought of me, while I clean the slate with the hands of uncertainty
