Judging since Krown hasn't been around.

Best Pal Stakes* - 5F/T/G5+
Win. Daring Vision
Place. Athena's Desires
Show. Call Me Crooked

I didn't see Call Me Crooked beating out the top two going five furlongs. Pegasus Wing's progeny are renowned for their wicked speed and I didn't see either colt or filly being outdone. Daring Vision has been sitting on a win for a while and now was the time for him to strike. He nosed out Athena's Desires at the wire.

EDDY COUNTY STAKES*
Win: Nirvana
Place: Palisades Pirate (nose)
Show: Lilith Wind (neck)
4th: Great Revenge (length)
5th: Silent Snap (neck)
6th: Jazzasoleil

This race was so full of front runners there was waaaaay too much speed up front, which totally set up Nirvana for this win. Snowy your doing nothing wrong with Great Revenge, he strikes me more as a horse who likes a little more distance, from what races he's been winning, but he almost got Lilith today. Silent Snap seems to want shorter distances to me, his been thriving in the sprints and Nirvana seems like she was the most prepared today and he was apart of the crazy up front pace today. Jazzasoleil wasn't really ready for this race Sammy, she didn't really stick out that much to me today, but keep working with her.
