Who is Steve Asmussen leaving in the barn....Gun Runner? You must be kidding me.

Blanket accusations tend to get you in trouble.
they are called generalizations and I did not know where and when Grand Jete is running, thats why I asked.

I have no idea why you are taking the opposite side...maybe your right and its my perception that horses are skipping preps, lets visit again when we see the fields for these Grade 1 races coming up. Maybe you are right.

You didn't "ask" Greg.

I think keeping good horses out of important races is a problem in the game. However, making generalizations weakens anyone's argument.
