Still not sure which Euros are coming.

BC Mile

Starcraft [3-1]---Aussie runner starting to roll, might contest Classic
Dubawi [7/2]---Tough Godolphin miler seeks rematch with Star.
Rakti [8-1]---sentimental favorite of mine, poor QEII effort may pass BC
Mea Domina [20-1]---filly's last was a corker at Dmr
Whipper [12-1]---another Euro that can scoot
Leroidesanimaux [8/5]---scarry Atto Mile run, won eight straight
Silver Tree [20-1]---horse owes me money , exotics crasher?
Valixir [10-1]---another Euro running fool
Artie Schiller [9/2]---last years fav had horror trip; 6-4-1-1 at Bel
Singletary [12-1]---last years winner has lost a step.

Piks:

Dubawi
Silver Tree
Leroidesanimaux
Valixir

Too bad my boy Soaring Free starting bleeding in his old age. If he was in the gate, he could cook Leroi and still take up his customary position in 4th.....lol. With that said, whoever Aiden sends over should be respected.

Leroy, Leroy, Leroy. Don't forget everyone that he can rate as well. Not a need the lead type at all. I believe Limehouse is running in the Kelso at Belmont on Sunday. Looking forward to seeing how he takes to the turf. Potential bomber underneath on Cup day if he runs well? Maybe a reach, but ya never know. He's a classy hard tryer which I always respect.

Starcraft would go close to winning the Mile if Mr Makin decides to pay the late entrance fee !

Starcraft is a Thoroughbred that can travel and race well on any Race Track Location.

It would be to see Starcraft take on the best under US Racing Conditions.

I say bring it on .

Stay .

Clint, I completely agree with you.
I do think Starcraft will run in the BC.
His owner obviously loves seeing his name in print
as he seems to mouth off constantly and changes his
mind by the hour. I think he may have seen the movie
"Seabiscuit" too many times. His proposal of a match race
against Dubawi is laughable - the Breeders will be the true
test and they all have to get past The King.

Sadly don't know much about him just yet, but Starcraft gets bonus points for being named after one of the best PC strategy games of all time....lol.

HI bcfanatic ,

Mr Makin is certainly a character who loves his racing and owns one super thoroughbred in Starcraft.

Like any actor or dancer that is aspiring to reach stardom in Hollywood or Vegas. If someone is talking about you your name is in the papers for free and it opens doors .

Good luck to Mr Makin not many of us will own or race a racehorse like Starcraft. I just want to see Starcraft race again. Whether that is in Hong Kong or the States he still will have to race in top fields and prove his greatness by winning .

There are no flies on Mr Makin or Starcraft .




Hi Reggie ,

I think the missions of the two Starcrafts is to find the successful way to win. One in the galaxy and the other well in front of the race field at the wire .

Reggie, you will be in for a treat if you do see the big flashy Chestnut Starcraft run live. Throw in mr Makin's pre and post race “ floor show “ and you will be treated to a day at the races for sure .

Stay guys .

I say you ignore Artie at your own risk here. I won't.

I like Artie, at Belmont, in the BC Mile too. Looks like 6-1 might be reralistic they way they are talking about the other players. Mig needs to stay healthy and get the trip. If Valdivia can win the Mile, so can the Mig.

Artie has had a few issues all year.

1-he's always been giving weight which he won't do in the Breeders Cup

2-he's always pressing or up near the lead-In the Kelsoe they were going quick-the pace in the BC is usually solid-Mig ought to tuck him behind horses and save some run like he did at Keeneland last year.

3-in every race I've seen him run this year he's been a sweaty mess.I didn't see the Kelsoe,but I think the weather on Oct 29th will be nice and cool which should be to his benefit.

Singletary may just be rounding back into form.

He didn't beat much in his last,but he came rolling home in a last quarter of 22.30 under what appeared to be a hand ride.I think maybe Chatlos uses the whole year just to get him to the mile in one piece and at peak for the big one.I would say off his last they can find another couple of lengths on Oct 29th which makes him a serious player even with Leroid in the race.
