Yea but I recall going in thinking a couple were decent, Kafwain and Domestic Dispute I think. Hindsight it was a pretty poor race.

2007 was bad

one of the more comfortable bet against propositions, is with any horse doing something he/she has never done, with fast turn around for a young fiery horse, at different track, and do we know what will happen and what kind of horse he is if he doesn't have lead and needs to pass other talented colts at top of stretch? all this for between 4/5-9/5 odds enjoy...

I guess I gotta ask what you like about him other than who trains him? I haven't seen anything special out of the horse so far.

Big field looming.........do you think they gun him to keep him out of trouble ?
I kind of like the Gary/Mary West Baffert runner a bit.

He needs to improve a ton to even be in the mix. Bob lost his derby shot when Mastery went down.
