"Bubble" and "Watch" horse thread

[Izvestia]

Cacau is only a 5-year-old Unbridled's Song gelding, but I think he's one to throw on a 'watch' thread. He is entered at Emerald Downs for $7500 on Friday.

He last raced November 2014, ran 10th and last (eased) for $14,000 at Del Mar. He then spent some time on the Vets List in California as "unsound" in December. This is his first race back. New connections.

Just saw that one- and here is another one- Carnivore who was on the Derby trail at one point- is in a $2,500 claimer today at Emerald. Former Pletcher horse- sold for $280k at OBS.

Carnivore! Looking at his career, it's basically been downhill since the spring of his sophomore year. One to watch for sure.
Thanks.

Cacau won his race easily. Still worth watching.
Carnivore finished 6th of 6. Running last at $2500.

Saw that, even more concerned about Canivore now.

Most Happy Fella runs in the 3rd @ Belmont today- hasn't show much and goes up in class.

I think any horse claimed by D. Jacobsen deserves to be on a "watch".
North Slope was claimed yesterday for $62,500 from Godolphin at Aqueduct.

Another horse I am putting a "watch" on... Asserting Bear. He is half brother to multiple champion Inish Glora.
Horse was purchased for $50,695 as a yearling and won $461,894 for Bear Stable, including the Coronation Futurity and Marine Stakes, and was 3rd in the Queens Plate and -this year- was 3rd in the Seagram S. (G3).
He sold for $1,500 at the CTHS Winter Mixed Sale as part of the Bear dispersal to Burton Sipp... who I think is known for running worn down warriors for cheap, and then unloading them. He's a BIT shady.
Yuck. Asserting Bear is a pretty classy horse. Can't find anything else to do with him?

Some of you may want to watch a filly named Texas Gem. I didn't get a good look at them today on the track feed, but there was a lot of talk about her "hound dog" ears. Apparently she had normal ears but had surgery to remove some cysts in the ears and as a result, her ears are in permanent flop mode.
