Now you PC Dogooders can attack Beyer

Don't duck the Preakness, Bill. Maybe you found a race that your 1st loser can actually win.

So, are you gunna believe Beyer's opinion on how much it cost them , or are you gunna believe the pity fest started by Casse, and Mott? Mott wanted to get put up and accept stolen property. Casse needed a bail out for his horse not being able to get the 10f distance that day. I don 't have a motive (like those 2 do.) Unless you think not wanting an imposter on the derby winner list is a motive.

I think you should start 10 more threads. I haven’t been this entertained in years.

I have to say I’m sure if I go back and look Scuds has had major issues with Beyer in the past.

Amazing how ones opinion changes when someone agrees with you.

Obviously he has no way of knowing that War of Will wouldn't have won or "might have finished fifth"....

True. I also don’t really buy that either. Notably, a head was the difference between 5th and 4th, so using 5th seems arbitrary. If he could have finished 5th, he clearly could have finished 4th. And we have to admit that the calculation for how many lengths the foul cost WOW is impossible to be exact on.

I’m understanding a bit more why people don’t think there should have been a takedown, but I still disagree.

The only real issue I have with Beyer’s comment is him using Long Range Toddy’s and Bodexpress’s odds in what seems like an attempt to demonstrate they didn’t have a chance to finish well. When you have a 65-1 horse run the 2nd best race in the field, citing the odds doesn’t seem like the best way to make the point.

LRT ran a good race and I suspect he would have finished significantly better than he did, although still probably pretty far back.
