Hypothetical question
 

I was bored and looking through Azeri's lifetime PPs last night. Which grade I or grade II races for older males would a very good, not necessarily all-time great, mare like Azeri have won this year? I'll start the list:

2008 Suburban

Hollywood Gold Cup

NT

Wouldn't it be quicker to name the ones she wouldn't have won this year?

Met mile would have been interesting

better question...which ones would holy Bull have won?

he surely could have won the woodward and Gold Cup. probably the Met mile too.

Pretty good considering he is like 22 years old

Isn't HB like 17 this year?

He'd probably have won about half of them at his current age. Seriously.

Hollywood Turf Cup.

yeah, but if he would have lost you would have whined about the ride.:eek:

Still on tilt huh ? :D

Nah, im just messin with you.

Apology IM is next....can't wait.

I will look for it.

:D

I dont know what will take longer, you finding that post or you finding your little pee pee.

Don't know how she would handle a synthetic course but on dirt, it's hard to see any race that was run this year and think that given her running style and ability, she couldn't have won.

you think she beats curlin in the stephen foster or DWC?

She would have been run into the ground in the Met Mile or Woodward. She would have had a hard time in the slop in the JCGC and the Dubai World Cup would have been a disaster.

NT

Perhaps not Dubai. But yeah, I think she could have beaten him in the Foster.

Did I actually say that a thread you were involved in was excellent. Why don't you attempt to class up just a bit?

Sheesh!

Wow.....Dalakahni will be pissed at you Vic. I guess he/she/it wont be rooting for Rosario. I am sure Joel will be crushed.

I just want to point out for the 27th time that Azeri never lost a two-turn race when she was sent to the early lead.

And she didn't need things her own way either, as evidenced by the 2002 BC Distaff when she went the opening 3/4 in 1:09 and change and ran Imperial Gesture and Jerry Bailey into submission, costing that one 2nd place. Of course, after Azeri spanked Bailey again in the Apple Blossom AND Gor For Wand in 2004, Bailey made sure to get the last laugh at Saratoga when he absolutely destroyed his own mount's chances in the 1 1/4 mile Personal Ensign by sending her to the lead and running the opening 3/4 in 1:09 so that Azeri would not win. Bailey's mount finished butt-naked last, and Azeri got passed late and ran 2nd.

Ok, I'm done. Back to my hole.

nobody was going to beat Commentator in the Whitney this year... not even Azeri :D

Justin my good friend......still think the economy is "fine" ?

The Dow only dropped a few thousand points since your call.

Every single one of them

There's a nice story on Holy Bull and Croll at the Bloodhorse site..

Didn't Sightseek beat Azeri in the Ogden Phipps?> Wasn't the jockey aboard Sightseek Jerry Bailey? Wasnt it Pat Day's fault for taking the bait Bailey set on Roar Emotion in the Personal Ensign? Was Roar Emotion a world beater?

Yes, Sightseek beat Azeri in the ONE-TURN Ogden Phipps, and Bailey was aboard.

I still don't understand why Bailey thought it was a good idea to run Roar Emotion into the ground.

Ducking the question are we ?

Justin, allow me. Justin's original post clearly said she never lost a TWO-TURN race when she was sent to the lead. Not only did Justin answer the question but it was a question that didn't need to be asked as it had nothing to do with what Justin had said. The question didn't dispute at all what he had said.

i think he wants justin to answer the other question about the economy. poor guy will never live that down i guess.
