Can't have enough on Blue Collar Jack today.

He mixes his races but last time in he ran a blinder one day at Cranbourne, leading virtually all the way, he was going to bolt in by about 3l but shyed at a bird and finished about 7th. The form out of the race has been enormous with horses like St Louis Blue, Correct Amoonda and others i can't remember who all won their next start. His next start was at bendigo where he led and found sweet fa. He is nominated for the cups, which is always a decent sign for a maiden, he's also first up over 1400, which tells me he's done plenty of work for a first up kill. I am going to back this horse every start he has to make a profit off him, because he will win a race.

Good to be True, was back near last, last start in a race where there was another crajerjack run by VIAKALANI SMYTZER for the blackbookers. He came wide on the turn and was green as grass all the way down the straight, he might get to a decent quote with Soi Cowboy looking the class, and Reignite who's always in commision.

Will be on both today and maybe a running dubb to.

Well done Mav, you murdered them yesti. Sorry about Flu Blu it was a really stupid selection from that gate, i thought Flu would be dubb figs and the winner would be around even money but ended up real value and Blu no value at all.

Avenger, you lurking out there? How's the American racing been going? I really like some at Saratoga this Saturday. Travers Day, no less, but I've been waiting for a couple of these to run back. FIRST SAMURAI will try to step to the next level when the 2 year old takes on the top-rated Hugh Hennesy in the G1 Hopeful Stakes at 7f. The Frank Brothers Trainee ran roughshod over his last allowance field at the Spa on Haskell Saturday. Bailey rode one mount at Saratoga that day (Samurai), hopped on the plane, flew to Monmouth, couldn't land at the scheduled airport, landed at another, made it in time to win the Haskell on Bob BAffert's 3yo ROMAN RULER who crushed that field and is entered in the Travers on Sat. I like him too as he crushed Flower Alley earlier in the Saratoga Meet and could realistically be the top horse in training in the world today. He was injured earlier in the year and is now ready to show his top stuff.

Many people think the undefeated LOST IN THE FOG is the best around, but I highly doubt it. He looks like a sprinter only and has ducked all the top three year olds and is obviously pointing to the BC Sprint. But he is going to lose the 7 furlong KING BISHOP STAKES to the Steve Asmussen trained SANTANA STRINGS who eclipsed the field in the 7f Amsterdam a couple of weeks ago. He will be a nice price and really may be the best sprinter going. Definitely a good value play.

Zito has a 2yo who was scratced last weekend on a rainy day in a msw, but is scheduled to run on Sat. I can't remember his name right now but I'll get it in a minute.
The big most important thing about all these selections is how the track is playing. Speed has been holding in sprints, closers or stalkers in dirt routes, and honest on the turf but I'm watching the rest of the week closely.

Gotta go play some Aussies now. Hoping Mr. Ed, Sportz and Mav come through like usual!!!!

Superfly is Zito's 2yo but I am having second thoughts as Super Steve Asmussen has QUAHADA in the same race with Bailey and has worked the same slow steady works that all his phenomenal 2 year old stable of debut winners have and IJ would be hard pressed to go against this approximately 65% winner with 2yo starters at the Spa this meet. Just goes to show that teaching 2yo's how to break sharply makes all the difference. I don't know where they will be next spring but that's not my probem. I gotta score now.


One of his top 2yo's just swept the Monmouth stakes for juveniles and won the bigger one by 81/2 lengths. HE"S GOT GRIT is a key horse for evaluation purposes as he may be as good as the 2yo's at Saratoga othet than Hugh Hennesy and First Samurai, or maybe as good. I got some nice info on a Delaware Park 2yo trained by Mike Matz who ran at 12-1 the other day after stepping up to allw vs. a field full of horses who ran against GRIT. He missed the whole shabang by 1/2 length after being boxed and steadied on the turn, racing greenly down the stretch and closing against the unforgiving speed bias. His name escapes me right now, but he came in third to Creve Coeur (Grahma Motion's 2yo)in the 7th at Delaware on Monday. He is FAST and won his maiden at 19-1 so he likes to win at a price.

Thanks. I'll have a look at your picks on Saturday.

Regards,

Glenn
