never said I was.  in fact I said I am intrigued and interested.  That said I am realistic about some facts which are the following:  will be his 3rd spin in five weeks and very iffy so far on dirt.  but he's moving the right way at the right time, recent efforts on less demanding surfaces of polyfluff/turf, and he appears better suited than many of these for the distance.

I'm well aware of Chrome.  haven't made up my mind yet.  I'm strongly leaning to that we will not see his best ever in this race but I could be wrong.  I expect him to fire but I'm not sold he is a cinch at this distance under these circumstances and on a different surface.


Update:

Hoppertunity - out

Still mulling it over but kinda sorta left here with ones i'll use:

Intense Holiday
General A Rod
Medal Count
Curve (maybe)

Candy Boy (maybe underneath - gotta work with what you got)

Chrome - not sure.

 For me bro ... I'm sold that if he likes CD course , along with the best pedigree of the field , why not give him a shot at 20-1 ?? The dirt races ... What if the horse didn't care for GP track and last year at SA , no lasix .. Yes , just excuses , but most of the horses at this age all have excuses why they don't show up at times .. imo .. Good luck bro ..

Atlas - thx for the writeups appreciate all the work...

FYI Race 12 on Saturday keep your eye on Slan Abhaile...drew a great PP, and in the best shape of its life, with Rosario riding.

You were very spot on with your write ups atlas. Thank you very much for all of the time and effort you put into everything.

For some idiotic reason I left Commanding Curve off my Super Tri which cost me.

BOL moving forward!
