Tural-lure No Lie

Friday, April 13, 2012

Today's Keeneland feature, the Grade 1 Maker's 46 Mile, is always a highly anitipated event won by many quality individuals. The two favorites, Turallure (7-5) and Get Stormy (9-5), certainly qualify on that score. And then there's Doubles Partner (5-1), who never gets his due but nevertheless seems to improve from year to year.

Of all the separaters in spots like these are experience and success and the Grade 1 level, which gets us back to the two favorites, and Turallure, from the Lopresti barn which, if you're not a stats freak, might not realize that he's an fairly amazing 36% efficient with layups of greater than 90 days. Factor in excellent performance figures and solid G1 credentials and you have a most probable winner.

Taking Turallure to win, no price restrictions, and keying him in multiples with his two rivals here.

At the wire, it’s Ramon all alone! Vacations always scare me, even though at this level they are usually ready at first asking. Get ready, Get Stormy!
