With Decade also losing by a whisker. Still, nice to see that he is getting runners.

Tough beat @ 25/1 :cry:
I've found it easier to tear up tickets at 8/1 instead of 8/5.

Cilla is entered in Sorority Stakes on Monday. Heliochrome is entered in Race 3 Del Mar on Sept 7th.
Personally, I am most looking forward to Jamsstar's race. I liked her at the two year sale and she has been training well.

I'm excited for Cilla's stakes race and Heliochrome. Helio ran a really great race and lost narrowly, + Gary Stevens seems pretty high on him so that's worth something. Cilla is also pretty gutsy. Surely she's worth a few dollars at 15-1 for the Sorority.

Honestly, the way Mark Casse runners have been going at Saratoga, I will take it.
Although I knew it would happen, I am a bit disappointed that Polished Lady didn't get off the AE list as I am interested is seeing how she does.

Mamma Rama finished 7th. Wondering why they don't try the dirt again, but really also wondering why they brought her to Del Mar at all when she didn't win first time out at Emerald. Seems if they were coming south, Golden Gate would be a better option.

Wild times at the OK Corral:

Mechanicville was actually entered in Kentucky Downs Race 5. The gates opened before 2 final horses loaded: one of them was Mechanicville.

Charles Chrome won his debut at Indiana Grand by a wide margin (haven't had time to look at the chart for the official count, but announcer said he won by double digits).

I was checking to see if either of the Chrome 2yos in Russia, had made any more starts, they haven't. But there is a 3rd 2yo now showing up, Wave Chrome. She is out of Wave The Flag (by Empire Maker). She was a RNA at the 2019 Keeneland September sale and is currently unraced.

Decade was a determined winner in the 4th at Churchill today, beating a game Exaggerator filly by a neck.

Lavish McTavish (out of Moulin de Mougin ) was scratched as an AE in the 6th at Churchill.

She was a scratch. You can look up the races on hippodrom.ru, but I am not sure how to easily search the entries. Chrome Tangier is also in Russia I believe.

Impressive win by California Lily at Woodbine today, [California Chrome - Wildcat Lily by D'wildcat ]

Her 5 length win reminded me of his King Glorious as a 2 year old.

Apparently a nice speed figure. Will be interesting to see where she goes next- stays all weather, tries grass or dirt?
