Race 1, horse #10, Master Cip. Didnt win this one. Race 2, horse #7, Integrity. Won this from off the pace Race 3, horse #3, Raven Rise. Came in 4th Race 5, horse #6, Howie's Tiz. lost Race 7, horse #1A, Fast Bullet (Gary Stevens is riding Laurie's Rocket, #2) Won it, gary stevens came in 3rd Race 8, horse #7, Better Lucky. lost by a neck, that was intense Race 9, horse #7, Forty Tales (ex derby prospect). won it from off the pace Race 10, horse #5, Optimizer (this horse is really good despite his loss to Wise Dan last time out)
those are the races Joel has today before the belmont which is race 11. Im looking to see how hes handling the track today.
Orb for redemption, Will Take Charge for looking the most like Secretariat and Incognito for being the unknown dark horse and Freedom's Child for having that look that I am the winner.
My picks and safe trip out and back for all horses and jockeys.
check out the silks in that race....Ramsey's red and white, black and red of Phipps on Point of Entry, and Calumets silks on Optimizer. Shug's third win in the Manhattan Handicap
Help fellow friends!! first hope all has been doing well, I am sick and this dummy forgot to set my DVR to record the NBC broadcast of it, I started it at about an hour into the broadcast, Reborn Ruffian, other friends, can you tell me if they said anything about Queen Ruffian on there?? I suppose they did because I missed it...omg!! HELP!! Thanks all. Go Orb..
That dingbat blonde is a distraction. I wish they touched more on Belmont history. Replay Secretariat's win 40 yrs ago. Oh, well, there is still time. Orb, Freedom Child, Revolutionary, Unlimited Budget for the girl angle.
Thank you so much CM!! I was so mad at myself for forgetting to DVR it; have over hundred degree fever and fell asleep on Belmont Day?!?! OMG!! I see they are having some nice shots of her resting place, but I would think, and Reborn and I talked about this awhile ago, that they SHOULD at least mention Ruffian since her great-nephew is the favorite. They did that big time in the 88 Derby with Private Terms as she was his aunt. Thanks again so much!!
You are right, they should! I remember being a heart broken little girl. Our local newspaper..."Modern Day Black Beauty, Ruffian Destroyed." I was crushed, clipped the headline and kept it for many years. You feel better, Ok? Safe trips to all the beauties!
