Bad case of seconditis yesterday. I have three today and I'm going for the "Hat Trick"
Ellis Park Race 7
2 yo going one mile on turf
#5 JAZIL BELL, 6-1
made his debut last month sprinting on CD dirt. Broke slow and ran up to get into contention but had nothing left from his efforts. Now he stretches out on turf and should appreciate the distance. He is bred to like the weeds and his works prior to first start were very good. He should break better in second start and be within a couple turning for home and let his breeding take over.
Belmont Park Race 7
Starter Hdc $20k clm with purse of $53k--6f turf
#2 CACTUS SON, 2-1
These connections just don't ship. Based in Kentucky, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Arkansas, ---but this year sent a group to Delaware. Not that far from Delaware to Long Island, and when you can get $53k for a $20k clm race you better go. Lures top jock Javier Castellano. A top win wager and a probable single on all verticals. Word is that he may be taking some of his barn to Saratoga to appease top owner Toby Keith of country music world?
Belmont Park Race 9
Voodoo Dancer Stakes--$90k --older f&m going one mile on turf
#2 LA CLOCHE, 7/2
5 yo mare is a Darby Dan homebred out of Ghostzapper who has faced much better than she faces today. She came out of a Spa Stakes last summer with a bone chip and had a little remodeling done. In her first race back she ran a credible 2nd and has come back to work very well, with a very good turf work. This old girl has a late kick from hell and expect her to put on a show today in the late going. We just hope we have a good pace to run after as she will have plenty left for the last 100 yards! I'm not crazy about the jock, Junior Alvarado, but all he has to do is get her outside turning for home and just hold on!
GOOD LUCK TO ALL!

Got another call on Cactus Son, and we might want to check the sct. I doubt he will sct, Kenny Smith has already spent the money to ship. Still, he is pissed with the weights assigned.
Sorry John
