Of course, can someone really get insulted by the stupidity of the likes of Watchmaker?
Include Me Out is hardly a great horse, but it is largely forgotten that she has had a pretty good year in a terrible division out west.

How could Jeff possibly be accused of having an East Coast bias?
As for ranking her below Awesome Maria and/or Plum Pretty...that's not a bias...that's indefensible. One horse is retired after two weak efforts and the other is training up to the November sale.
