No waiting for Confederate fans.  First race of the day.

It's My Show will probably race next week (and Confederate will take that one off).  Race of the day will still probably be Sylvia Hanover vs Twin B Joe Fresh.  If McClure is gapping at the half like she did Saturday she won't catch Twin B either.

[JIDGE]

Interesting note -- Chris Page drives Christchurch a Diamond Creek, Taker trained horse -- not Gingras.

Maybe -- maybe not. Tattersalls next week is $400,000

[The Thorn]

Bowden has already proven he doesn't care about purse money but I was just kind of making a joke about the ducking issue.  As for Chris Page I think with all the entries Diamond Creek has coming into Hoosier, there will probably be driver conflicts so why not set something up now. Another possibility is they are thinking of moving him to another stable next year and Burke would probably be interested as he doesn't have a ton of FFA's and would respect Page's opinion.

If this is at all true, I'm sure Ronnie would have already talked to YG. I think he as respect for his opinion, You think he needs another opinion, the only one who counts is his.

[The Thorn]

Just idle speculation.  Setting up a driver for a possible conflict at Hoosier seems most likely.

[PineHurstPacer]

They said at the Jug they were taking a week off

[hoosierboy]

Interesting because entries at usta.com show it listed as race 6

[JIDGE]

Very interesting according to USTA -- now it's race 6.  There's a UK college football game that afternoon -- perhaps they're moving it for possible traffic congestion?

[Miguel_Sanchez]

Not too many Jug horses are going to race two heats and then come right back and try to go with the top bunch.  Doesn't he deserve a little rest?

The owner of Its My Show has been on facebook all week touting his horse is better than Confederate! Then he ducks the race, hmmmm!

No way is he better than Confederate IMO.

Too much speed, would go past It's My Show like he was tied to the pylons LOL

[Brown jug]
