Ice Box takes the last two Triple Crown races
 
NOT!!! Sure he was the best horse today thanks to a total pace meltdown. No way im gonna get this horse in the Preakness and Belmont.

Looking at Lucky for the revenge win in Maryland over Super Saver.

Yeah, poor old Lookin At Lucky can't get a break. He's got one of the best trainers in the sport and one of the top jockeys in the world, yet he's always up another horse's ass. He just can't seem to avoid getting himself into trouble.

I don't know if I'm sincere here or trying to be a wise guy.

I'll take Sidney's Candy (with a new jock that won't go 46 for the first half) in the Preakness and Setsuko in the Belmont.

I didn't expect any type of positive race from Sidney's Candy today but he stopped like a horse that bled. I also think it wouldn't have mattered if he had Eddie Arcaro on him today, he was never going to make a dent in that race.

Setsuko?

NTamm1215 05-01-2010 11:19 PM

Nice guy trainer, late plodding style, it's a brutal combination. Why is Shug so popular?

He seems to have a larger following than that - 8/5 or whatever he was in that race yesterday was funny.

He was 8/5 and it was beyond funny. I know he wasn't on my ticket.

Coach Pants 05-01-2010 11:24 PM

I had a horrible day. I'm not mad though because at least I didn't tout Awesome Act. That horse is turrible.

Thanks for the Mush :rolleyes:

Ice Box will skip The Preakness then we'll hear pace excuses on why he didnt win the Belmont.

Autotossing a Zito horse in the Belmont is about as wise as autotossing a Calvin Borel piloted horse in a Graded stakes at Churchill.

Zito and LaPenta disagree on whether to run Ice Box in the Preakness.

Zito is 100% right about this one. He would be going into the Belmont just like Summer Bird did last year.

Just run him in the Belmont however IF he runs in the Preakness there are gonna be some great odds are other horses

This horse wants distance,not a shorter track with tight corners. KD is 1 1/2 miles he is the winner easily

Run him tho and let him go off at 3/1. Ill jump all over other horses at a price

If you are speaking of Setsuko, he is a good horse, but he needs every piece of 9 furlongs, and farther. I would like to see Mandella run that horse in the Belmont.

I was picking someone up from the airport and got a call that he was 3/5 opening click I just laughed. Seems like always a horse that wants to get into the Derby gets way overbet in another race on Derby Day and
