Gulfstream - Race 9
#6 Morrow Cove (5/1 ml)
I've been waiting for filly to be entered in a race, and here she is. This first-time starter for Todd Pletcher has turned in a remarkable string of drills during the last several weeks. It started back on Nov 29 when she worked heads-up with her then-unraced barnmate The Last Meow, followed by a heads-up gate drill with that one on Dec 18, then another heads-up drill on Dec. 31. So that's three heads-up drills with The Last Meow, who then came out of those works to destroy a maiden field by 7 1/2 lengths (gate-to-wire in fast time) a week later. That's huge just by itself, but it doesn't end there. In her next workout on Jan. 9, Morrow Cove worked heads-up with Awesome Maria, an older multiple graded-stakes winner who was last seen winning the Grade 1 Ogden Phipps last summer. And then, in her next (and most recent) drill, she worked heads-up with Dan and Sheila, an impressive debut winner for us last month who shipped to Fair Grounds coming out of that drill and ran 4th (beaten 2 lengths) in yesterday's Grade 3 Lecomte Stakes. And for all this, she's being listed @ 5/1 here??? She may not win this thing, but i'll be shocked if she doesn't run well. Haven't seen a firster looking this strong in a very long time.

Disagree.
#2 Gossip Line (8/1 ml) starts for a trainer who's hitting 26% with firsters (for a huge flat-bet profit), and is showing a heads-up drill on Jan 3 with Window Boy, who was last seen running second by a neck in an allowance race @ Philly Park a couple of months ago.
#8 Street Fleet (12/1 ml) is coming off a heads-up drill with Red Hot Doll, who was last seen setting a fast early pace in a stakes race @ Tampa last month. Figures to show some speed.
I actually played a couple of small exactas with these two horses underneath Morrow Cove.
Edit: Oops, sorry. I missed the "who has any experience" part.
DC whats his Vegas price to win the Derby?
Bumping. El Padrino wins big, shows guts. Zo whatever it is, the filly who defeated Morrow Cove last out, came back to win a N1X in a crushing manner today as well.
Morrow Cove looks to be live as fuck.
Well the moment is upon us. I hope the Graham Motion horse takes some action. (is that the the one that was workng with TableThreeTen?)
Her, and also Went The Day Well, who returned to win last weekend.
