I'll post the odds/positions with another link tomorrow. Clockers said Good Cheer and East Ave are going to be very tough to beat but anything can happen in racing. Good luck to everyone!

He came back with a positive test of betamethasone. Its same painkiller and anti inflammatory med that used on Aspy's buddy Bob Baffert's Derby winner. I'm not sure if Pletcher is going to run him or not. We'll find out if he is a scratch tomorrow. Remember, HISA has no jurisdiction in Louisiana

Been hearing that East Ave been training well in Florida, and Good Cheer has looked great in the mornings. Whit Beckman filly in the Rachel Alexandra is one to keep an eye on. A price to look for is Shane Wilson's horse in the 8th, Old Homestead. I have no idea why he's 8/1 M/L. Weslet Ward will take the money in that race, and I'll try and beat him

Good info Chest. We have had a good run this meet with Geaux Sugar. Won 2 stakes and finished second on a soft track in another. Look forward to the risen star racing day.

That's the type of guy you want training, if you own horses. I never understood how a trainer that has a 100 horses gets credit. It's the assistants and grooms that do all the work, and put actual hands on a horse.

Totally agree. We had several trainers in the past and they all are fine. Keith is more hands on than any we ever had. Calls or texts me twice a week with updates on our horses. Great guy on top of being a good horse man!

Mr Keith is a guy who never had failed tests either. That's the type of dude I want training my horses. Did he take a swing at Gulfstream a few years ago during the summer?

I’m not sure about Gulfstream. We used Ron Faucheaux then Rivelle before Keith. Only been using him about a year or so. Claimed one for us a week or so back that he likes so far.

Ron is a good guy too. Now an agent and doesn't have to deal with the BS. Making plenty money with his riders. You mean Larry Rivelli? Good claim trainer. Almost won the Derby with Two Phil's.

We did well with Ron. Only had 1 horse with Larry. Decided to go local with Keith after Larry.
