[afleetphil]

Not at all sure, but maybe.....?


Frosted   
Comfort   T. Pletcher   
Shaman Ghost   J. Jerkens   
Mubtaahij   K. McLaughlin   
Bradester   E. Kenneally   
Samraat   R. Violette, Jr.   

[Zenyatta]

Wow, Bradester. Would love to see him upend Frosted.

[honneerider]

'll be there. Glad o see some horses I recognize running. Was thinking no one entered, then Frosted appeared, now a few others.

[peeptoad]

I won't get to see this one since I'll be away, but I would probably bet against Frosted here. I don't think Bradester will bother him though since Frosted isn't a frontrunner anyway, unless they choose to send him. He's way better running from off the pace like he did in the Met. If he loses the Woodward it's likely due to a slow regression off that race.

Edit: just my opinion,  of course. Tho I just read the TDN article and if Frosted can somehow replicate his Met run, then nobody beats him. That's unlikely however. ..

I'd love to be a homer too!
Where's the California shippers?

[Senator L]

Still counting their money from last week  :chickendance:

[Dusty]

Sneaky Samraat may have a say in this race - And Mubtaahij always tries - but if Frosted runs like he did last out = NO contest

[stark]

First time Lasix can work miracles and it makes 12/1 a worthwhile shot, #1 SHAMAN GHOST for Jerkins/Castellano.

Shaman Ghost   Javier Castellano   20.00   8.50     3.10

Frosted   Joel Rosario           2.10

[Zenyatta]

Good pick. Frosted looks to have regressed.

[Man o Taz]

I don't know if he regressed. He did have a poor break and then was taken wide. Not a bad trip, but he did run 41 feet more than the winner.

I think they wanted to take him to the lead again and the awkward start scrapped those plans. What did he lose by, a half length.

Granted Mubtaahij ran 3 feet more than he did, but I think without the poor break he wins the race.
