    Ok kids,,,I was close for the Derby I was more wrong than Darron Lee at the Governors Ball when it came to Churchill, let's get the Belmont correct if we can.
    Thoughts and predictions kids ?

    Disappointed that the Derby and Preakness winners will sit it out. I've been high on Lookin' at Lee all along because of his big finish ability from the back of the field; maybe he can do it and use the extra distance to take the win. Need to see the full field Wednesday to find the sleepers for the Tri and Super.

    2. Senior Investment
    3. Irish War Cry
    4. J Boys Echo

    Also threw a few bucks into Twisted Tom, Meantime and Multiplier to flesh out some Superfectas on the cheap.

    Good luck to all. Today should be a perfect day out there, beautiful weather and reasonable crowds, I wish I didn't have other things to do. Probably not a great day to get rich though.

    Damn, he was still on when I checked early this morning but seeing he is scratched now. Good thing I didn't make my call yet.

    Guess it's a Irish War Cry/Senior Investment Ex Bx and probably a $1 tri-wheel those 2 with Tapwrit, Gormley, Looking at Lee in the show. I'm not really that high on Senior but thinking being next to Irish may help, that and I hate betting all favorites.

    Seems like THE guys posting here are close to agreement but the so called experts are not with us and THAT I LIKE ! I saw that Hank Goldberg who is usually good at this stuff picked the exact same way as me, I hope we dont "MUSH " each other ----->LOL
    I am off to OTB shortly,,,,,anyone have anything on these earlier races , I might place a wager while there ?

    Looks like as football fans we don't know shit about horses. Waterboy was the only one to name Tapwrit even as a filler. My account is empty so I'm probably done until next May unless I get teased into some Breeders Cup play. On the bright side nobody sniffed at Hollywood who got the ride back to the barn.
