Championship Bout -- Confederate vs. It's My Show

[Fuguzzi]

I think Confederate will float and try to find a spot mid pack. He gets a little lazy on the lead and tetrick will want his best against it’s my show. I’m looking for Timmy to wait and then at the 5/8s give him clear race track and blast. No one has shown they can go with him or withstand him yet. If he gets a reasonable trip I don’t think it’s my show will be able to hold him off. And nothing against it’s my show but tetrick lost the North America cup, not confederate.

Agreed, being on the lead is not his "best game" and "lazy" is a word that could describe him there ( notice how Timmy pulled the plugs last start for the first time in months after brushing to the lead ), but still on the engine clear of competition he paced 53.3/25.2 coming home.

those half mile times are pretty slow yet none of the horses on the lead are holding up today.

but will Confederate get any cover. Might have to do it himself, first over isnt exactly winning today either.

[Fuguzzi]

Last time out, Timmy said he didn't go into the race with a plan. That he got him on the gate, looked over at the #1 and decided to push off, etc, etc. This week he almost has to have a plan. He must be somewhat aggressive early regardless of the wind and track condition, but it is definitely a "tiring" surface today overall.

maybe he needs to blast and take the two hole behind Its My show

This may be an adventure for Confederate.  Unlike the other division there are no real speed horses here except IMS, no one to give him LIVE cover, plenty to give him weak cover.  It might be time for a float and blast that downhill 2nd quarter straightaway to the lead. 

After this race the discussion of GOAT may resurface if he overcomes everything in style.

Is this considered redboarding?

Boy can bugaboo Lou cook. If he can mature and be a little handier, he could be a real nice one.

Confederate under siege and pulls away. Did notice he’s got some glue left front like he’s got a quarter crack.

No question in my mind Confederate and Cannibal are 1 and 2. That's why I thought Cannibal was the best at the Jug.

Pelling said they had hiccup this week, laceration on knee
