They all turn 3 tomorrow!
I hit some huge longshots yesterday, a $30+ winner and that $50 winner.
Today swinging for the fences, if I can find a parking space.

Prat in the house So is Rosario. One day 2 years ago he came in to ride all Asmussen horses. I decided to bet against him the entire day. That was one of my best days in 10 years, hit big ones. Rosario was chalk in every race, and by the 2nd race I could tell he wasn't on his game. Let's see how Pratt does. He's off to a bad start, R1, had the Cox chalk and ran 4th. He's also in R5, 7, 8, 9 and 10 all on Cox horses. These guys come in but don't ride OP daily and often don't win unless on shoe-in fire breathing Favorite chalks. Oaklawn is a tough tough track, so many shippers. At present, Esquivel, Arrieta, Leparoux, Vazquez and Asmussen's son Keith, have been riding very well. For trainers, Asmussen, Contreras, Hartman, McPeek, Cox, Shirer, Williams all doing well. Lukas never high % there but pulls off some great longshots. |

I was looking at this one more as a Broodmare sire, not a racehorse. As a BMS, may be one for the ages, looking at that pedigree. Will be interesting to see if someone scoops him up for that purpose. I could care less if he's a good racehorse or not. Loaded with Stamina chefs and Speed Mares. Great Rasmussen Factor. Perfect BMS. |

Prat went 0 for 7 races today at Oaklawn. Thinking Cox won't be using him at this track much again. And he was on the chalk too.
Rosario won 3 races for Asmussen.

Purses up noticeably the last few years. Now $115,000 for MSW's. Purses have been pretty high there for a few years now, makes for nice large fields. Almost every race has 2 AEs, and usually a field of 9-12 ends up running. It was chalky today though--- which I did not expect with all 2 year olds. |
