Sylvia Hanover

[Laag]

Slyvia was a monster today....147.2 brush and crush left poor Joe in her wake and that won got beat by EJ for 2nd....likely done in by a 26.4 3rd quarter on the lead. Slyvia must have paced her third quarter in 26.1. Unbelievable time at Plainridge

I said it before that TBJF has a week side now, then she came back last week, but I stuck to my guns with Sylvia, her rightful heir / co success partner now.

TBJF and Sylvia's are like my girlfriend though, schitzo, one week peaceful another bat shit nuts, this week it's hell!

They're both such nice mares to watch. Smart drive by Tetrick today, Sylvia wanted to leap out of her skin when he ducked her for few steps on the last turn. For a big mare, the smaller track sure doesn't hurt her any.

Very nice indeed, surged by the 1/9 like she was standing still.

Twin B Joe Fresh might need some R & R, she's still queen of NA, just not tonight.

Great day for bridge jumpers, so many locks either won or hit the board, T-breds, Thorpedo Anna in a 5 horse field, 1/4 not even 1/9 but show pool open too and she murdered them for fun.  Sick!   

Dunn drover her like he drove Bulldog at the Red Mile with the same result. The Bionic Man had to be foaming at the mouth at the three quarters. He had to know then he was an easy winner.

I think Joe is better when Dunn just is making that big crush nearing 3/4s rather than on the lead early. Certainly easier to do that at the big track. She did look a bit sore at the end of that mile so hopefully she comes back strong for the Lady Liberty on Hambo Day.

Its pretty sad that there are only about the same 8 mares competing in all these races...what the heck happened. I guess all the inflated opens out in New York and Indiana and Ohio and Kentucky mean less on the grand circuit

It’s the same with the trotting mares - it’s because of how lucrative the breeding shed is

Meanwhile once again AKE brings in big price on a trotter in a stakes race!

TBJF was cooked once the 53 half came up.  That’s heavy lifting in a 5/8’s

Thought Zeron drove EJ a bit smarter - she needs to be given softer trips and allowed to pick up pieces right now.  Todd was driving her like the best and she isn’t.

Didn’t like Periculum today - 5/8 stretch isn’t enough for him but it wouldn’t have mattered.

Why did Yannick duck across 4 lanes to go to the inside when he broke down the stretch.  He should have just stayed in his lane through the wire

You are right about TBJF but I don't think it would have mattered, she wasn't beating Sylvia yesterday. It's the best rivalry in racing right now.....looking forward to seeing them hook up again.
