KD R10- 9/8

[tenfurlongs]

#3- Herchee (12-1) is a 3yo Twirling Candy colt, out of a Theatrical dam. Two wins in two turf mile starts, now goes for winner’s share of $1.5M purse. Helen Pitts trains, she trained Einstein and broke Curlin’s maiden before he was sold. Will have some of my $$ riding along.

Like your call on #3. Will look to 3/8 ExBx.

Also, liked #4 in Race 3 at Del Mar. just watched race. Did Mike Smith think they were going a mile instead of 5f? I don’t think the instructions were break forward, then take back to last, then sit chilly the rest of the way until wire, and gallop out past everyone. I like Mike, but you gotta at least break a sweat. Must be looking to score at big odds next time. Hopefully more aggressive jockey next time; not a fit for Mike.

An odd day at KD, everything that made sense won.      (no, WTH winners )  


Asmussen ties Joe Sharp for the trainer lead


Maker still zero for the meet

I was baffled the whole meet until last Saturday when a 3race streak (3rd 4th 5th)turned it around and even covered a tough loss with the Ravens Thursday. When colebrook’s Caravaggio stoned through in the rail and won I should have quit for the day instead of trying to beat the late chalk.

I love playing ky downs, however it is like playing Turfway—-never bet a lot on anything, and sit tight until the last 100 yards.
asmussens turf sprinter is unreal.
Hopefully I can lay off until keeneland.
Anything big overseas, 10f?

You should have a look at this weekend spider. Races at Leopardstown and Curragh, and they run the St. Leger card at Doncaster. Lots of familiar names running. Longchamp has some good racing as well.

Thank you!
Enjoy Irish racing and have a decent shot playing it, + they let us do $.50 tris.

Not so much with French racing, though I was fortunate to spend a weekend @ Longchamp in the Tribune Reserve 30 years ago.
