I have to go with Animal Kingdom again. He seems to be in top form right now.

I will bet him to win, and play a $1 superfecta as follows:

11 over 4-9-14 over 4-9-14 over 1-4-9-10-14 ($18)

Good luck to all.

Bill


Thanks Bill!!

it would also be fitting as the person "marcho man" passed away today - sort of ironic

What time is postime 'cause the world is supposed to end at 6pm. If were still here I look for Animal Kingdom to win with Astrology 2nd (he likes second).

Hi Mini,
Tim Ritvo is Kathy's husband.....Kathy's maiden name was Petro....related to the Petro jocks and trainer's and I agree it would be nice to see her win it. The horses were transferred to Kathy last winter when Timmy took a position at GP for Frank Stronach. TJ

Guess this is the place to post our picks...I'm so confused about this race, I am pretty much just letting my heart rule the day...it'd be just too great going to Belmont with a possible TC...to show how much I am confused, I have 4 pick lists :lol:

AK, Shack, Midnight, Dance City

AK, Dialed In, Midnight, Shack

AK, Dance City, Midnight, MMM

AK, Dialed In, Shack, Flashpoint

May the best horse win, and all come home safe and sound!!
