3/2 on Ecoro Sieg, good lord...

3/2 on Ecoro Sieg, good lord...

I mean, he's an impressive horse. But he's not 3/2 impressive. Then again, if he blows them away, we'll be thinking 3/2 was a steal.

I can't really talk, I singled him and thus contributed to the price, but yeah I didn't expect him to be this low because you have to really work to even watch his races. He looks good though, very cute!

Juv. Turf Sprint - Aesterius(IRE), Ecoro Sieg, Governor Sam
Juv. Fillies - American Bikini(JPN), Immersive, Snowyte
Juv. Fillies Turf - Lake Victoria, Scythian, Heavens Gate(IRE)

I didn't actually bet. I just picked 3 horses in each race.

We just ordered pizza and are ready for the watchalong! Happy breeders cup to one and all!

Is Jet that little?!

[Palace Malice]

Let's go Japan!!!

[flytpthestars]

Awe! Sam was so close to pull it off!

[Tessablue]

...I'm thinking that maybe they should stop riding Christophe Lemaire in these American races...

Good job by Sam to get third!

[Flanders]

I made a note of his starts in the other thread, but I didn't pick him. The 2nd place finisher, Arizona Blaze, had the experience of the field, as this was his 9th start.

He needed the lead and too many other horses at the front.

Magnum Force (Mehmas) wins the Juv. Turf Sprint at (looks at the Entries) 21-to-1?
Such a tight turf course and short stretch are likely to provide some more upsets this weekend.

9 starts as a 2 years old???

Yes. He started his season on March 18th.

Yeah it looked like he broke a step slow and then Lemaire completely gave up on him. He got knocked off stride pretty badly early and I suspect that was it. Oh well, nice effort by the Europeans here!

Happy Breeder's Cup day! May the odds be ever in your favor!

Juv. Turf Sprint — Ecoro Sieg (so, the odds aren't currently in my favor)
Juv. Fillies — American Bikini (JPN)
Juv. Fillies Turf — Lake Victoria (IRE)
Juv. — East Avenue
Juv. Turf — Mente

I wouldn't mind if Nooni won the Juv Fillies though; would love to see it for Win Win Win!

[tachyon]

Go Nooni!!
