My picks did pretty well

West Texas Derby open in the books and I more or less had it right! Was rooting for SVR Reyl Smart, Wiley Cat & Cattahoochee but thought one of Clint Allens might be to tough. Result?
SVR Reyl Smart shared the win with Clint Allens Olenasduallyfeather marking a 225, Wiley Cat placing third with a 223 and Cattahoochee did great scoring a 219 placing 6th!

We'll see what happens in the Classic finals today where Dont Look Twice will be the one to beat. Several really good ones here though. Reys Desire, Smooth Asa Zee, A Little Bossy etc. I like Stylish Scotti and how he works, no wasted movements and right on the mark. Might be a little to tough company this time around though.

Little Lap Dancer
I also like to see Jimmy Kemp's Little Lap Dancer do well, the Kemps has been in the business "forever"with horses like Commander King, Hollywood Bill and Leo San. To their credit they also bred the great Peppy San!

Even though Ashado Boko did well yesterday, I wasn't totally pleased with her. She didn't look as fluent and "springy" as she did awhile back and I hope it was just a lack of racing shining through. Didn't look lame or anything, just not as snappy as before.
