Big race for likely winner Improbable but I sure will be shouting for King Jack.
King Jack is trained by Jerry Hollendorfer with Mike Smith aboard and that combo would be fitting for the Winners Circle dedicated to Shared Belief.
Im looking forward to that race as well as seeing Code of Honor and Mucho Gusto in the Travers. One of the best racing weekends of the summer.
Good Luck everyone.
Hi Lisa
Just as a heads up, Shared Belief's full brother, Shared Legacy, is entered in an 8.5F, MSW (turf) race, at Ellis Park on Sunday, 8-25. In his initial start this past April, he finished last (12th), and didn't do much better in his 2nd start, on June 9th, (DNF). Here's hoping Mr. Sancal has him primed for his 3rd start, he's listed at 12-1 on the M/L.
In the Travers, I'll box COH, Tacitus, Tax and Mucho Gusto in a $2.00 superfecta.
Good luck Lisa
Not sure why they havent entered Shared Legacy going long on dirt. Could be too late now. Obvious that our Champ Shared Belief was in a class all his own with that breeding and Shared Legacy may just want to run specifically to his numbers - which is longer on dirt. Rare does lightening strike twice. (Or should I say Lightening and Thunder!) Miss Shared Belief terribly.
