I DON'T CARE had a nasty trip from post 11 in the debut race and still rumbled along from 11th at the break to fourth in a field of twelve. Gets a better trip and a better rider today with the bug J. Rod. Tough to love as the chalk however.

MONTEAGLE is interesting with the drop from specials. Jack Fisher has a small operation but can put one over now and again.

You could make a case for a lot of these.

Only the deuce carries on the Pick 3 but after the first contest I DON'T CARE.

I'd be kicking something off with ALL here but the first race took some starch out of my shorts.

Grassman Tagg puts CHECK MAN onto the lawn after the dismal dirt debut and I'm willing to take a tumble.

DD: 2-4/2-3-4

I looked long and hard at SOTB's three kickoff runners and they matched with runners I thought could have a shot so I scooted his P3 with a second leg runner that I liked.

P3: 3-6-8/2-3-4-7/3-6

MONTEAGLE had a troubled debut---rank early, then got hooked into a speed duel. Understandably, the beast tired late. Drops in class and distance today.

CANEROS also cuts back in class and distance today.

BELIEVE IN YOU did not seem it like running on the inside in last. Should go better today.


trouble this time too.....still was best. nice call

Looks like some good things happened here for the Bored Board Boys.

Oh those bases on balls and those drops from specials!

I had mentioned earlier in this thread that Jack Fisher could "put one over". He's a fine horseman and gets a lot out of what he has. The ship from the Deli and the drop was well-intended. That barn is small (only 62 starts for 2011 going into this one).

You have to follow people like Jack Fisher, Ramon Preciado, and Patricia Farro out of Philly. These are solid horse people with good brains and they provide sweet overlays with their shippers.
