the results prove nothing. this year i bet it with just poly and grass horses. did great friday. but as far as calling it "world championships". thats a joke. the dirt horses never run to potential and after two years in a row its even more obvious. the dirt horses seem to have no shot. they make a big deal of the classic where a dirt horse did not hit the board in two years. give me a break. gio ponti would never even enter a dirt race and he is second in the classic? it was a nice couple days with nice racing, but, calling it "championships" is a lie and a joke. now everyone knows why half the "dirt" horses did not show and i can't blame them.
