The Deuce/Six could catch me another DD but only the #6 MINSKY MOMENT can land me the no-payday P3 and move on another.

Another small field - I know the old call. Everybody saves their horses for Saratoga.

This jockey colony has reached embarrassing proportions, allowing horses like that to lope along on the lead. Irad sits there 3 wide, assumes he can go by at any time, and can't, because that horse was allowed to walk for the first 3/4.

mini-Bang!!!!

The Finger shipper steals it on the front end to land my A-OK $76.00 DD while all the talking heads in HD that cannot handicap make excuses for why somebody else didn't win.

Cheap speed is dangerous, lone speed can be deadly. I learned that as a lad long ago with Pop along with the rail at Aqueduct and Belmont when I wasn't shaving yet.

The winner went 24.72 and 49.44 for the half uncontested. Overland ain't the best way to go when you're chasing "slow" speed in a small field that's going two turns.
