horse head Santa Anita Derby
Just thought I'd put my two cents in since it's a big racing day. Hope you all are well.

In the Santa Anita Derby race #6 I am very enthusiastic bout what should be a
good overlay in Bob Black Jack. Surprisingly I think this horse is being overlooked. He's
goin up in class but then again who's not? Then theres that smoking workout 7 days ago
of 58 H flat, besting Coast Guard by 4/10's of a second. and Colonel John by 3/10's.

Even his last race where he cam in third, he still posted fast recent 89 byers with
a good 89 Moss pace rating should put him right there in the thick of things. On my personel
figures I have him with the magic # 23 form points and if he runs to form is sprint race one race back where he ran 6f in 1:06.2 ( Wow just now saw that, wonder what the track record is?)

Only two questions need to be answered in the next hour and a half., can he handle the distance and does the Jockey know
how to ride em. If these two factors are handled he wins the race.

So looking at an exacta, i would say that putting Bob Black Jack on top with Yankee Bravo under him should be successful.

I'm picking them for fun and practice so don't go bet the farm cause I said so. Just practicing
for next Wednesday. Everyone have a good day, and see you on the 9th.

Thanks Mike Solar

Man, he blew the corner on that last turn and got a little wide. I think the jockey could have
done a little better of keeping him on the rail. Cost him the 3 ft he lost by.

Default World Record?
On a final note, I am pretty sure I heard the announcer say the Bob broke the world record for
6 furlongs. Anybody confirm that?
Sorry I missed the obvious play of boxing him with Colonel John. Just he's not my favorite horse.
