What is it with well-bred Phipps horses? I mean, why does everyone so desperately want them to be good then when they're not they pretend like they are?

Shug McGaughey is a nice guy and a good trainer but he must have some cult following in a vacuum that's released when one of his horses runs. I mean, who the hell bet Distinctively in the Ladies on Saturday? It's always good to take a filly eligible for a N1X in a race like that. Now Streaker comes along, beats a terrible maiden field then CRAWLS around the track on Saturday beating a very poor N1X field and it's supposed to look good because "she was never asked."

Here's a question for you, what's higher, Streaker's Beyer for Saturday or the forecasted high temperature at Aqueduct on Friday according to weather.com?
