It's awful early in the season for the Mamba to be locked on a line already,it seems to me.I guess we'll all find out together.(if true)

The big question is, who Dunn drives in the finals assuming they both make it?

My vote is yes, but not for the NA Cup, somewhere else down the line.
NA Cup.. BJ has home field advantage and he has had a couple more starts this year.
My reasoning down the line somewhere...
Dexter vs the bobble head McClure
Who would you rather drive your horse?
Case closed ngc3
I don't consider a very good horse to be a super horse if he/she requires a "HOME FIELD! A SUPER HORSE SHOULD BE ABLE TO OVERCOME ALL....EVEN RACING ON A CORN FIELD!!

Just my thought on the drivers
tough spot for Harris, if mamba and brandon blvd draw separate he could put dunn on brandon but needs to know who dunn is going with in the final
if dunn is not committed i suspect harris puts jason down in the elim
any thoughts ??

What if the Harris group offer Dunn a Breeding share if he stays with Brandon Blvd. all year?
I am just an old horse trainer still going around in circles. Sometimes Fast. Sometimes Half-Fast.

Commitments are made to be broken. If a horse turns out not to be the real deal the great drivers will jump ship.

Already gets 10% on all Odds On drives. What makes you think Blvd. will be a stallion? Let alone a share that would be worth anything.

Standard is 5% for all drives -- if he's got a special deal for 10% good for him. Chances are Brandon is headed for a stallion career just off his 2yr. old year and his breeding.

When he gets defeated, I predict every fucking idiot on this site will blame the driver. If he goes undefeated, every fucking idiot on this site will credit the horse, trainer, and groom.

The only way BJ gets beat.... is from a bad drive.  Bob admitted that he's nervous now driving BJ in the winner circle interview last week.  He was driving against his buddies... the US drivers will not be so kind.

In addition to Brandon Blvd and Melillo do not overlook half a million-dollar winner Fragment if he travels north.
This Engblom trained colt just destroyed a Saratoga NYSS field in the slop, with two broken headpoles, in 51.4.

Fragment is not eligible to NA Cup, and is racing this Wednesday at Buffalo in a NYSS race.

If I was Harris I would have wanted Bartlett to be a be easier on the horse knowing he was going to race 3x in 3 weeks.  Not a huge Bartlett fan - too much point and go for my liking but definitely works for him

I've seen all of Beau's races including his 2026 qualifiers.  Watched Brandon last night.  Watched Mamba's 2026 races 3 or 4 times.

While we all know anything can and often does happen in a horse race, IMHO BJ is clearly the best of the three barring unforeseen circumtances.  He doesn't need a good trip, just not a horribly troubled one.
