what's with him and the 1post on these certain biased configurations?? He's had a ton of chances this year... hell a ton of races;)

I know these races got understandably derided when first posted here but they are all quite competitive and offer a number of good wagering opportunities.

A long time.

The Prioress has to fall apart with all that speed...I think three horses have a shot in there, Luster, Be Fair, and On the Menu, the only horses who have ever shown any ability to rate and pass horses in the stretch.

Anyone still believe It's a Bird is knocking on the door to the upper eschelon of the division?

Nice picking Calvin.

I'm not much of a Warrior's Reward fan, but the race is a toss.

A toss? Did he run into trouble? I did not watch the race

King Glorious 07-04-2009 07:29 PM

He lost. Again. That automatically means it's a toss. Keep all wins, toss all losses.

Stumbled badly at the start and rallied late to finish 3rd.

So you don't think he had a valid excuse. Personally, I think he's more of a closing sprinter type, but it's ludicrous to try to formulate any new opinions of the horse based on today's effort.

You're probably right. That's why I'm keeping the same one I had of him before today's race.

Then I guess we agree.

Bobby Fischer 07-04-2009 08:41 PM

"lets disagree to agree"

Todd Beattie pulled a Frankel.

Its too bad. I would have bet Driven to Success to win even if FS stayed in.
Was looking at maybe as high as 4/1...now DTS becomes the obvious favorite at probably around 1/2 or 3/5...and on paper looks like he cant lose, but you know how these things turn out.
