Poor Real Specialist had his good season with 6 wins back in 2012 (no wins since). Should I go on? Helene Spirit and Dan Excel (with his total 2 wins?)? Come on...

These aren't exactly the days of the old guard. This isn't Bullsih Luck / Silent Witness / Vengeance of Rain / Sacred Kingdom time.

I don't need a lecture on Able Friend and yes I know about Designs on Rome but I would argue that the field wasn't really very strong considering.

Wise Dan fights back. He knows where that finish line is. I don't know how many races he has left but I don't think anyone... good horse or flavor of the month... will be beating him period.
If anyone else on here knew anything about the horses we were talking about, that response could be nominated for the most asinine of the year.

Needless to say (well, at least I thought it was), opining on the quality of a race while citing the 11th, 12th, 13th, and 14th placers is never a good spot to start. The field wasn't strong because of who Variety Club beat by anywhere from 11.25 to 30 lengths?

Keep up with that one...and you are welcome in the parimutuel pools anytime.
