If you are going to bet a horse, learn how to spell his name.

No big deal. It is just that he is named after a Canadian diamond mine named Ekati, not Akati. Wanted to get it right.

you missed the key point.

though they only bet 3-4x/year, they apparently win most of those bets.

i think we have much to learn.

not necessarily.

my read is he's mad the connections treated the horse instead of letting nature take it's course. because apparently untreated 1/4 cracks turn out so well. so he won't bet on him.

that should teach the connections a lesson they won't soon forget.

If Big Brown has no problem with foot he should win,however I think it will give him problems, so with a small investment I'll try to make a small windfall
and have something bet on the race. Tale of Ekati has two wins over the track and carried 126 lbs earlier so I think he is next best, a horse for course.

I wasn't going to say anything - but 6 of the 10 horses have carried 126 lbs. before - that's the weight that colts carry in the triple crown - and it's pretty much irrelevant. TofE's 2 wins at the track were in sprints - which he is much better suited for.

easy mistake to make though.

i-c-a-bad spelling.

what ever happened to the icabod's of the world? if i had another kid, i'd name 'em icabod. at least when they were a teenager they'd have a better reason to be pissed at me.

If J. Rose was decapitated in the starting

Big Brown has to fall down to lose against this bunch of crows. Unless he pulls up or Kent D does something tragic, he will will.

And will somebody please tell Fred Seitz that stranger things havent happened than a horse like his winning the Belmont. He would be 10-1 in a MSW turf race at Belmont. If he were to win, NYRA should have some Jim Jones juice available so the entire crowd can off themselves Jonestown style.
