How will Byk-pen win without my
anti-mushing capabilities.

How you lose the signal? More Russian Satellites colliding?

Yeah that horse was the best. Just tired of losing to these bad trainers that get good all of a sudden. And make no mistake about it...Paddy has been horrible the past 5 years up until this meet.

Phelps Street had some strong works and perhaps he tipped his mitt with the 12/27 workout. Then he moved the horse to Santa to work three times over the surface.

I think the horse would of been about 9/2 if not for the money that the connections bet. Pick 4 would of paid a minimum of $100. See, people see those works etc., but Came Home hasn't been too good at stud. So, I really think like probably 30-40% of the money on it was the connections' money.

He had 50k in the win pool bet on him. Plus he was a solid 3d choice in the pick 4 and pick 3 pools. You think the connections bet between 15 and 20K to win on him? That's a lot of dough to put on a horse and takes extreme testicular fortitude to make that wager.

That result was never in question. I'm not saying 1, 2, or 3 people. I'm talking about people within their fairly close circle. Remember, folks, Paddy is close friends with Frank Lyons etc. I saw the horse was awfully low in odds(for Sorenson being on) with a minute to go. I mean I am sure a lot of people who had that Rosario horse etc. in their pick 6 etc. were a lil scared to see a horse with Danny Sorenson take that much action.

You can see three cappers from DT said they were live for stuff going into the last, and didn't use the Came Home horse(6.) That should tell you something. For it to go off 5/2, would mean a lot of connections' money was put in. I didn't bet that card, but I think I WOULD HAVE LEFT THE HORSE OFF (because of the lack of success from Came Home.) That's one of the major criticisms of multi-race wagers(can't see the action on the later legs.) Remember, that Brad F had the favorite (with Rosario) as the most likely winner on the card(I think.) Not saying they take him as Bible, but a lot of people use him as a guide to who has a chance, and he didn't pick the 6 in the top 3. That's especially important, because a lot of people run out of time for capping(and take someone else's top 2 or 3 in some legs.)
