game on dude and acclamation are gonna be the speedsters. game on dude doesn't seem to have yet lost a step but i dont think del mar isn't his best surface. so may not win this one. as for acclamation, well he appears to have lost a step and beat the dude easily in last year's race but had to hold off twirling candy at the end though. in his lone 2 starts have been wins but barely though. so am not too high either of them but will root for both them.
Not biting your head off but merely asking... how has Acclamation lost a step?

He's won his last 7 starts... 5 of which were G1s and the other 2 G2s.

Juat curious why you think the way you do.

I haven't heard a thing since reading he'd probably be back later on this summer but that was a while ago.

I don't know why this was so ****ing funny but I had tears in my eyes from laughing so hard.

Too bad about Acclamation.

I guess now I don't have to decide which horse to root for.

Speaking of Rail Trip this is the official oh-yes-he-did post for when he wins and Kingie is forced to admit that he is a teensy bit sentimental and had him on top. (You know you are).
