the foy was an interesting race on sunday, no doubt. i could see cool coal man winning actually, but i would have expected a better performance by anak nakal, monba, court vision, and halo najib.  i would have never expected such an average pace, granted i didtn have a racing form to look at.  the times were actuallly messed up..the real times were 24,47,111,136,150. instead of 25,49,113,137,151.  but i give my props to court vision, considering he hasnt run since december 22nd.  and monba i know is definitely a synthetic horse.  anak nakal and halo najib may have been affected by the pace, and there will never be a slow pace in the derby, considering the fact that war pass, who i think is a slight better version of hard spun, will set the pace.

so i wont exactly throw away that race..because i hav to congradulate cool coal man..i tohught he was a bit out of his league.  he performed well and i wont take that away from him.

now war pass was another story..at about 15 minutes to post.. a field fo 5...the odds were 99,99,70,1/9(you kno who),99

i like died

but come post time they were 35, 7, 25, 1/9, 30..and the $2 exacta payed 2.60.  $2 tri payed $7 and the super payed 11 dollars.

no one was even close to feel his kick back...but i still ahve questions about distance...grranted this race was a mile..but he was weary in the champagne an the bcup...1m1/8....in the champagne..if it was 1 furlong longer..pyro would have won.and i tihnk that is how it will play out in the derby.

well see if he can get the distance come the 1st saturday in may
