War Pass!!

[backbreaker]

first of all, ovbiously I'm in my hotel in paris now.. just got here an hour ago.. first thing I did was find a Satilate TV


here is a post I made on a horse racing forum almost a month ago to the day

My updated top 5 2YO's in the country.. this is my list it's not scientific and it's not law. this is all based on dirt horses that it hink will stretcho ut and be a factor in the BC Juve

NOw: okay top 6..

6: Tale of Ekati: Didn't beat a hell of a bunch in his last race, although did it rather impressivly. Tagg's best 2YO, will stretch out. love sunday Silence/Halo/Hail to Reason on the dam side, this horse should be able to run on gramhm crackers if they choose to and stretching out with Sunday Silence is not a problem.. his avg offspring wins at 8.7 Furlongs. However.. he got beat.. handily.. but Ready's Image earlier this year. I can't dismiss that. and he didn't win with the ease I would like him to beat a group like The Leopard and paint

5: Sargent Seattle... okay.. I know he only broke his maiden... but my gosh I haven't been as impressed all year. Still. He is 4th becuase the odds are against him stretching past 7F. His mommy is a sprinter.. a darn good sprinter ut a sprinter nevertheless. Vindication is proving not to be a source of stanima.. and the early resuots of crossing him with sprinters and thinking that the Vindicaiton/Seattle Slew line would carry distance has produced speeddeamons



4: Riley Tucker: 1) harlin's holiday (riley tucker's sire) is this year's Street Cry. SMOKIN hot first year sire. he will stretch out. 3) he is trained by Mott.. and he's not even mott's best 2YO. One could make the case he's not even in the top 3 if you include turf. But he's a game Colt. Reminds me alot of street sense. a hell of alot. neither has peaked early in their 2YO years. Should race on antyhing and will be a monster on dirt, he's een racing on poly

3: Wicked Style: The most game proformance I have seen from a 2YO all year turning back Riley Tucker at Arlington park. Also his sire, mucho uno is a BC Juve winner. stretching out will be NOOOO probblem for him in the least bit. Runnign Style very similar to Any Given Saturday

2: Majestic Warrior: The commerical bred son of AP Indy... who woulda thought.. aP indy and hot 2Yo's.. this time last year Rags to riches was getting trounced in a MSW. Any other year he's be at the top of my list. AP Indy and distance are like me and rum. they go well together. His dam is a Grade 1 winner routing. he has a classic running style if there ever was one. And for what I can tell looking at him.. he doesn't have the normal AP Indy feet.. he has some fluid in one of his knees.. but he's 2 and that happens when you have a precious 2YO

1: War Pass. This just might be, and this is my opinion.. the best 2YO Zito has ever got his hands on. my freakin gosh. he's by the most unknown hottest sire on earth in Cherokee run (zanjero, Cholokee, younaguaka). Stretcin gout will not be a probelm. He took an allowence OC 80k at Saratoga and ran as green as grass and still pulled away to win by daylight. One of the horses he beat, Fidelio, I honeslty think will be a derby horse next year.. he's got the EXACT same connections as Ghostzapper, execpt for the dam. Trainer, sire, joc, and he's good. And frankel doesn't push 2YO's. the fact that he is even this good this early is probalby giving frankel goosebumps. back to war pass. words can't describe how impressive this 2YO is to me. It's very close between him and majestic warrior, but just seeing how green this horse is and how easily he's doing it...

I've been hollaring about War Pass to anyone who would listen to me for the last month and a half. He is the best 2YO in the country. Hands down. I knew it when I saw him break his maiden and who he did it against

everyone had this hardon with The AP Indy Baby Majestic Warrior and Pletchers Bomb Ready's Image...

Not only did War Pass won, he did it geared down and I just made back everything I spent on this vacation!! not a bad day.. hopefully it can carry on utnil tomorrow.

BTW... War Pass, Z Humor and Court Vision should be your three Derby Horses.. don't know if War pass will get the distance however.. Court Vision will.

Man, I love your passion for the sport! I hope you get your own stable some day and run some of your own horses in big races. I could see that happening.

man you wouldn't get me from out in front of a camera.. the game wouldn't be the same lol

One thing I seem to be able to have a talent for is telling a horse who is Green and will improve.. even though Majestic Warrior won the hopeful last month.. I wasn't that darn impressed.. AP Indy's don't peek early and the hopeful is about as early as it gets. Derby horses now are really just hitting the track... My top 5 now are

5) Z Humor
4) Court Vision
3) Etched
2) J Be K
1) War Pass

I would probably swap Etched for J Be K at over a mile however... J Be K is sick fast.

well.. I just lost some of my winnings already.. I've been on the lady of venice bandwagon ever since i saw her win the million dollar cash call mile live.. and she threw a clunker.. she's not a routing horse I suppose. I shoudln't have bet her anyway, not good odds.. .. let's hope I can make some more money today!

lol, my GF just threw a shoe at me because I blupred out a "god damn" at the woman passing on the TV screen back at keeneland. my gosh it's some ladies out there today..

man i need to give a horse racing handicapping session to the country... I'm literarly having the day of my life killing these 2YO races...!!! because of the size of the pools with the races being on ESPN.

The very next freaking race... Lane's End Breeders Cup Furirity... Wicked Style won by 5.. look at what I wrote about Wicked Style above.. number 3

24 bucks for 2 dollars.

3: Wicked Style: The most game proformance I have seen from a 2YO all year turning back Riley Tucker at Arlington park. Also his sire, mucho uno is a BC Juve winner. stretching out will be NOOOO probblem for him in the least bit. Runnign Style very similar to Any Given Saturday

This is like stealing candy from babies.

 

[~attrACTION~]

I didn't read all the posts...and maybe irrelevant, but I was at some garage sales this morning and I saw a horse saddle for $150, and I thought of you, because you're the only person I know (well online at least) who is into horse-racing.

very irrevelant, but still funny!

Sad thing about Teuflesberg, though.

 

[backbreaker]

worst overall day at keeneland, if not any track all year.

First, dream of angels flips over in the paddock when being saddled and busts open his skull and is put down instantly.

then in the same race, Teuflesberg, who hasn't had a break since april OF LAST YEAR.. the trainer ran the freakin poor guy in the ground... breaks downa.

Jamie Sanders is literarly.. the worst trainer in the country.. A good trainer wins at a 10-12% clip.. she wins at a 1% clip.. she spots horses too high and she over works them. Ironically she's the part owner of him. shewas overred 1 million for him before the derby and like a dumbass turned it down.

and even worse, she put him in a sale in the beginning of november.. he shoudln't have even RAN in this race.. he would have fedtched every bit of 2 millionish, he's got a great female family and a hot young stallion as a sire, and he can still race.

now he's lukcy to live

Then if that wasn't enough, a horse pulls up in the 2YO race I hit and is put down not too much later.

then from what i understand, someone told me that the ambluance ran over a guys foot while taking T'Berg to the hospital!!!

Damn polytrack.
