Those Euro's Knew what they were doing:D

cowgirlintexas 10-25-2008 05:56 PM
Damn :(

Danzig 10-25-2008 05:57 PM
beautiful run by raven's pass.
as for the built in excuse, only one horse won on the main track the last two days who had shown previous ability on the dirt-midnight lute.


edit~matter of fact...i chose fatal bullet in the sprint, because of all his proven ability on the surface, not because i thought he fit well class-wise. he ran second.

crazy track, crazy decisions made.
but hey, the euros are happy, eh?

Didn't play a thing. Carpet turf courses and synthetic surfaces don't turn me on.

Raven's Pass and Henrythenavigator run 1-2 in the Classic. Guess it wasn't too hot out for them either.

Round Pen 10-25-2008 06:00 PM
couple interesting comments right after the race from Robby said he was the same old Curlin Asmussen said going into the first turn he was off the bridle and knew he was in trouble.

I won a sh*t load of money and I don't care if it's redboarding!

Rudeboyelvis 10-25-2008 06:03 PM

Danzig 10-25-2008 06:04 PM

we all just dodged a bullet.

letswastemoney 10-25-2008 06:07 PM
He'll be back and exact his revenge next year :)

Danzig 10-25-2008 06:07 PM
it is funny. i saw casino drives jock look behind him about ten second before getting inhaled and told my son, he's making sure there's no one behind him, because he knows he's about to make a beeline for the rear. sure enough.

oh man, and some of us got a lot of grief for dismissing this horse, who deserved to be dismissed.

Dr. Swine:

I implore you.... Please, for the love of all things good and holy, post your NFL picks in the Sports Bar and Grill. You may singlehandedly pull us out of the recession.

A grateful nation anxiously awaits your reply

well at least I took a stand an admitted I was wrong, with pie on my face, But I have the last two races to get out today. I had one winner so far in A-max.

yeah, i enjoyed trying to pick some winners-but didn't have a real dime on anything.

stupid laws.

blackthroatedwind 10-25-2008 06:11 PM
And hit it for himself.

Putting $50K into the pockets of horseplayers is a beautiful thing.

Hank made money. Sign of the apocalypse?

Oh come on, it makes things interesting to have a mystery horse. :)

he was no mystery. he was the comedy in the race.

the mystery was the euros, and they solved the case quite easily today. they'll be here in spades next year. for all they missed out on yesterday, they more than made up for it today.

SilverRP 10-25-2008 06:15 PM
just curious, what size of a ticket did he use

if you can get him to say his name backwards, will it send him back to his parallel universe?

sdjcom 10-25-2008 06:18 PM
well I'm depress now and will bring up a bad habit and try to recoup at mountaineer, I'm guessing you don"t want to see my picks at Mnr.lol

$5K.

He put in the same ticket for himself that he did for OTB ( they mandated a $5K ticket ) just as he did last year. It's more than he wanted to play but he didn't want to rue missing out.

As it was, the first five winners were As, so he couldn't have missed even for relatively small money.

nice roi!

blackthroatedwind 10-25-2008 06:22 PM
I don't know what made me happier, scoring in the race, or seeing that Casino Drive was last.

hi_im_god 10-25-2008 06:22 PM
mind you, it was a very slow bullet that had no moves.

but still. it was a bullet.

sumitas 10-25-2008 06:23 PM
The wiley Dattori sat off Curlin . Then pushed the button just a little later and that got him to the wire soonest .

well, since i can only play monopoly money, it's no question for me!! i even had to rewind to see him fading from view, since they took so long to show the f.o.o.f.
