Bobby At The Spa | Horse Racing

Waking up this morning, it finally hit me… The #Saratoga🎪 meet is actually over. For the last two months, it felt like Saratoga was going to run forever. Now that it’s over, July 3rd feels like it was yesterday. Growing up in Saratoga, this was the first summer I truly appreciated just how special #TheSpa is. And honestly? I feel stupid for missing out on so many summers before this. Now we’ve got a LONG 10 months until the gates open again. Until then, I guess my liver could use the break. 😂 #HorseRacing

Big IF! The good news is the big 3 are still running. It’s setting up very well for Coach Pope if Hughes is a Cali fraud.

The more I think about it the more it’s crazy Emerging Market is dropping from the Travers (where he ran decent) to a $80k AOC. If he loses send him to Parx 😕 #BC26 #BreedersCup

I can’t unsee how out of breath Ryusei Sakai was after the Jockey Gold Cup. After a fairly easy and routine win I’ve never seen a jockey that winded.

11 Breeders' Cup scratches so far: Juvenile: Gaudreau, Earth Song Juv Turf: Induction JFT: Go For Launch, Serenas Ghost Mile: Zulu Kingdom Turf: Test Score F&M Turf: Evershed F&M Sprint: Praying Distaff: Scottish Lassie, Splendora #BC26

Can’t lose betting the #BreedersCup with this view.

Not sure if it was: The altitude Heading to my favorite place Or just seeing the PPs / Thoros clearly But I’m making money this weekend at the #BreedersCup #BC26

Breeders' Cup scratches so far: Go For Launch (Juv Fillies Turf) Scottish Lassie (Distaff) Gaudreau (Juvenile) Induction (Juv Turf) Zulu Kingdom (Mile) Evershed (F&M Turf) Test Score (Turf) #BC26

🚨 Gaudreau is out of the Juvenile with a fever. He was never beating Hughes, Coach Pope or American History for me, but he's one less horse taking early pace out of this race. Field is down to 7 and the shape just changed. #BC26

Still thinking about @Drawingclearan1 “call” into @barshoelife ‘s Breeders’ Cup spaces last night. I’ve never been sold so well on long shots from anyone. Dude has me hyped for some value Friday and Saturday!

Have to think this can't be good for Gulfstream and Santa Anita. The writing has been on the wall, but hopefully this isn't the final nail. Maybe it will be a positive, and someone will step up and keep horse racing at both venues. #SantaAnita #GulfstreamPark

Started working on Friday's #BreedersCup card, and I've come to the conclusion Euros are just going to SMOKE me. Any tips for handicapping Euros coming to race in the US? #BC26

Is the #BreedersCup Juvenile a 3 horse race (Hughes, American History, Coach Pope) or is there an upset brewing? Who has Hughes really faced? California racing is so weak. In the Breeders' Futurity and Coach Pope kept up with nasty fractions. With a better pace he can win.

Pics of Sovereignty this morning. #BreedersCup #BC26

.@DailyRacingForm has the full Friday #BreedersCup PPs ready! Time to get to work! #BC26

I don’t think I will talk myself off of Sovereignty with the current pace scenarios of the Classic. His last workout looked effortless and Mott was praising him. 5/2 seems right let’s hope he gets bet up. #BC26 #BreedersCup

Further Ado drew the rail in the Dirt Mile. I still think he belonged in the Classic. But at a mile, post 1 means break clean and go. No time to get shuffled back from there. #BC26

Post 14 for Great Barrier Reef is a gift to everyone drawn inside him. The Juvenile Turf just got a lot more bettable. I'm shopping the inside posts before I take a short price on a horse who has to lose ground from out there.

🚨Mott sends Knightsbridge to the Classic. Add him to Napoleon Solo and the speed gets crowded. I said earlier that if he comes over, the first 3/4 could be blistering. That sets it up for whoever's sitting behind it. #BC26
