Just a little info for anyone that hasn't seen it already. Foggy worked 5F in 1:00 2/5 earlier today. Mandella is about to work RHT 7F any minute now. A 3F or 4F blowout a few days before the Classic for RHT is holding strong as the 1/9 favorite. Dick is so predictable. Get your minds out of the gutter.
I saw in the pre-entries that Nakatani was named on RHT, where is Gary at?!? I thought RHT was his darling, did Gary get hurt or re-retire and I missed it somehow? Can one of our in the know left-coasters clear this up for me?
Thanks 'Gooch, it was the Bris pre-entry PP's that had some of the confirmed jocks listed and they had 'Nak on RHT. When I saw that, I thought maybe something was off with the big fella, good to hear everything is in order.
"A 3F or 4F blowout a few days before the Classic for RHT is holding strong as the 1/9 favorite. Dick is so predictable."
Lmao Mike! And sure enough, Rock Hard Ten worked in 1:25 and change today.....nine days before the big race. A 3 or 4 furlong blowout on Wed or Thur in :34 or :46.....1/9 would be a gift! LOL! Papa M says they'll ship on Sunday and "maybe we'll just gallop him". Naaaaah....you can take it to the bank.
I suppose it's possible he could change his MO just a little because of the ship, but I look for 3 furlongs on Thursday......that's my prediction.
