And do you really think if SA would have had there old dirt track they would been running any slower. SA would have had the track as hard as the the Santa Monica Free Way. Oh I forgot it was like that everyday anyway. IF you remember 10k claimers would run 108 and change everyday on the old dirt track.

THere were great story lines every where.

The track is simply too fast. Look at the times from the first 2 races which were not the best horses in the world. Read what I said again. If this track was a dirt track and the times were this fast people would be absolutely freaking out.The filly sprint was won by a dead closer who won by 4 and they shaded 120. The only filly I ever remember shading 120 ever was Melair and Ventura while a nice filly aint no Melair.

So is this only a problem or joke because i posted it ? Who really disagree's ? If Curlin losses tomorrow, who is horse of the year ?

Cannon Shell 10-24-2008 08:00 PM

I predict the race will be won by a horse with success over the course. Who, I dont know. I dont like Mr Nightliner at all.

I haven't thought about it for 30 seconds. I could care less who wins HOY.

Two races for optional $40k claimers went in 1:14.26 and 1:14.88

F/M Sprint in 1:19.90

Juvenile Fillies in 1:40.99, fastest ever for the event. Faster than any of the males ever in the Juvenile.

Distaff in 1:46.85, second fastest ever behind only Inside Information's 1:46.15 which was done around one-turn at Belmont.

Sorry Cannon I must have been typing same time as you I had not seen your post before I sent mine. No Doubt it's very fast but the old SA track was extrememly fast too I think one of the big factors is that they have no Ideal how to slow it down. But you know if every horse that raced today comes back good and lives to fight again I can live with the track being that fast

10 pnt move up 10-24-2008 08:11 PM

time is really irrelevant isnt it, as long as the track is safe. The turf course all meet has been crazy fast, but safe, where is the thread about that?

I just wish the pro ride would stop producing such crazy winners and prices, todays Breeders Cup was brutal on form.
