    Kentucky Derby prospect Pyro makes his 3yo debut tonight, BC Juvenile Fillie winner Indian Blessing goes in Bullet and Grasshopper and Magna Graduate go in Mineshaft.

    Looking forward to seeing how all get on

    I am not a pyro fan, Indain Blessing will not get the oaks trip, her sire got a mile tops she as lucky too win her last start on the cushion track at santa anita.

    As for the BC juvinile form, all i can say is that allot of horses were running on a track that allot of them either lacked the experince over or simply hated.

    Magna gradute has beena nearly horse for years, Grasshoper is useful, how good he is we shall see…..

    Crown Of thorns impressed me last time out, with Into Mischeif i worry about the derby given that nine furlongs was the top end of harlans holidays stamina limit.

    The Siphon colt of steve asmussens looked a useful runner holding off blackberry road in the la comte at the fair grounds, he could be a classic horse given his breeding and impressive turn of foot, he reminds me of curlin.

    Nice win by Grasshopper there, cruising in behind and bursting through the gap.

    If you like this sort of thing, then one to follow for the rest of the season I should think. Perhaps his TRF namesake might even show an interest?…lol

    Pyro hacked, turning for home he was dead last inside the final furlong he came through the field like a bolt of lighting, very impressive.

    Indain Blessing rated off a front runner then turned on the style too win, she was all out inside the final furlong and was no finding allot under the whip when the wire came, her class got her home.

    Grasshoper won with abt in hand to beat up stakes horses but nothign specail, the trainer had mineshaft who won this race, this horse should go too better things, i would be included too take him too dubi
