Right now I’m thinking Chief Wallabee. He was 7-1 odds last race. So they definitely liked him. Finished 4th. Will be closing late. Everyone will bet Renegade obviously. Wait closer to race

You beat me to the punch Sunny. was going to start a Belmont Stakes thread on MON after the post draw. All good. The Belmont is being run at Saratoga again at 1 1/4 miles. rather than 1 1/2 miles if run at Belmont. Will look over the BRIS form and some other resources and post something here on FRI or SAT of next week. GL to all.

@River. Was playing Charlestown tonight, I couldn’t copy and paste from equibase. Look at 3rd race. 90-1 shot won easily. Haha paid $186 to win $51 place $17 show. Only 7 horses in race.
Yes I bet the favorite at 6/5 $5 show. Did not finish race. They lost big on him. I checked the speed figures for this year. Of course he had the lowest in the race by far.
He did have 1 win out of 6 this year. No 2nd no 3rds.

don't have the free PP's for that race from CT. wanted to see if you could have made any case for the horse?

 

[sunshine11]
