    especially with the Wood Memorial, Illinois Derby and Santa Anita Derby running within the next 1 1/2 hours..

    Can War Pass redeem himself after the Tampa Bay Derby debacle and should he even be running after needing stitches yesterday when cut his chin during his flight from Florida to New York

    Had a little bit of the Ladbrokes 14-1 on War Pass today as hopefully his last race was an unexplainable one off. Could be a good bet, could be a wasted bet.

    War pass was legless turning for home in the wood memorial, e ran his heart out after some test fractions that eoulw put decent sprinters too shame, but Tail of Ekati ran him down close home, he could be the one too take of the race. The latter is by Tale Of The Cat whose stock get middle distances in the US and allot further on european route mares, ( I know as i own part of leg on one), they on any ground which is a key factor.

    Remeber that Big Brown, who won last weekends Florida Derby is also a front runner but is very inexpereinced, I think if he and War Pass both run, he will eitehr out gun war pass or simply get locked in a speed dual that will cuade then too be stopping dead at the head of the stretch.
    With regards the Santa Anita Derby result, Colnel John, by BC clasic winner Tiznow, is bred too get the trip and change, he won in a manner that makes me drool about his chances, the obly worry is that he has never ran on a dirt track, only on sythetics.

    Pyro, two words, Lousina Downs, he looked a world beater beating horses up around that tight little track, i cannot rember a highclass colt who has been domintant in the causan country then been dominant on the big stage further north. Curcilar key, who won last years LA Derby came back too form over course and distance in a stakes race their during the last meeting. but he wasnt up too winning the kentucky derby. I could be wrong, ask Pengamon if you can catch the mirage, he remportedly in london but uncomfirmed sightings reported seeing him in saratoga springs new york and santa ainita leading too speculation that he is infact a holograme with multiple hard light drives…. :P
