Track at Meadows seems ultra fast. Track record for 3 yr old colts is 51.4 by Uncle Lasse.

       TCI in about 20 min., KARL is scheduled to go at 10:05 eastern. 3.5 hours.
       
       M1 looks lightning fast tonight. I have a funny feeling a track record is in the
       offering but it will not be KARL. All will not go well for KARL. Not sure what will
       happen but it is not good.


      Race#8 French Champagne- Big Driver change to TT. I will take a shot.

      Race#9 Flamboyance- Had the rail shut down on him last start. Looking for
                                       a big cover trip.

Karl will end up being the greatest trotter that ever lived.

He has already been beat. No chance of being the GOAT

LOL. I would ask who apparently never lost making them the greatest in your eyes only but you are such an asshole, I am sure it is wrong.

TCI raced well, but not a lot of competition and Miller looked a little uncomfortable with him a few times during the race.

Karl is a powerhouse!! His stride is amazing and (according to all those around him) he has a good head.  I re-ran his stretch run in slowmo about 6 or 7 times and it looks like he put in the slightest "shuffle step" a few times, but that could have been because Yannick was hanging onto him for dear life.  If given his head I think he would just overtrot himself.  Hope Yannick has been doing his bench presses (where is Russell Rash when he is needed...could hold onto a bull!!)

I agree with all of this

once Yimmy put the bigger bike on Karl-he has looked more powerful

should be fun to watch the next two months

Two months ? .. The season has six months left.  I hope he competes in the Fanduel end of year against MMs Dream and Jiggy Jog.  Too bad he will probably not come back next year.  Imagine what he could be as an aged stallion.
