Eh, I think that's what they're going for

Meditate ran to her looks! I thought Pleasant Passage ran fantastic as well, well-clear in second closing into that pace.

Meditate so incredibly easy. Wow.

Phew I was getting worried that I was cursing most of the horses I picked in the pool. I think I only picked 1 that scored points so far until this race, then I got 3 out of the top 4.

my situation now is like, throwing a $2,5k claimer against Flightline. jesus christ i knew i'd do TERRIBLY, but this is humilliating.

I spent hours handicapping and haven't cashed a ticket, meanwhile my mother is rolling in it after hitting all the exactas. You have to love this sport!

Meditate final quarter in 22 and 3, can't possibly beat that.

Cave Rock was on his toes coming out to the paddock

I expect them to be on their toes, they're 2yos and this is the biggest crowd they've ever seen. It's when they start with the airs above the ground that I get concerned.

Forte next door to Cave Rock is like watching a gazelle graze next to a rhino lol

Palace Malice · Fri Nov 04, 2022 4:55 pm

Lot of energy Cave Rock

Mylute · Fri Nov 04, 2022 4:57 pm

Congruent looks like Hansen

I miss him.

BaroqueAgain1 · Fri Nov 04, 2022 4:59 pm

The TVG folks are expressing a bit of concern about how hot/sweaty Cave Rock is getting on a day that is not hot.
Won't be surprised if he goes to the front...and then gets caught by The Other Baffert.

Tessablue · Fri Nov 04, 2022 5:01 pm

Forte looking pretty hot too, but he was a headcase when I saw him at Saratoga, so I don't think its unusual for him.

Tessablue · Fri Nov 04, 2022 5:04 pm

YEAH!!

ForTheThrill · Fri Nov 04, 2022 5:04 pm

YESSSSS GOOD BOY FORTE

Palace Malice · Fri Nov 04, 2022 5:05 pm

Yes Forte! I finally have a winner

Miss Woodford · Fri Nov 04, 2022 5:05 pm

Yay Forte won! Back to SoCal for Cave Rock.
