I spoke to him earlier and he was lamenting not running in the Golden Shaheen instead of last weekend. I think his exact words were " how could I have missed this race! "

Its simple, Nick is losing it. Why he didn't point Forefathers to the $2,000,000 Golden Shaheen is beyond me.

you know what you guys are 100% correct on this one.... forfathers is a bad horse, and this Golden Shaheen is a super super race, i totally agree with you on this one, i was so so so wrong. The big 3 in this race are the top 3 from the breeders cup sprint, well that was another amazing race where did the top 3 betting choices run in that race ? where did henny hughes run ? too much bling ? did henny hughes even show up that day ? im am wrong though this is a powerful group, especially the americans, if im not mistaken all of them except for friendly island are coming off pretty bad performances, and in my opinion friendly island is the winnner in here, and what is that really saying he's a ny bred, who beat a 3 or 4 horses field in cali in his prep, hes a grinder type close all the time, very good horse but, is he the type who should be the headliner in a $2,000,000 race ?

Good first step, accepting the unpleasant truth.

btw, didn't you say you were going to bed like two hours ago?

I'm always one to try and find value... sometimes in the form of bombs. So with that in mind, I'm goin with the #11 Bounty Quest.

He's a steady knocker at this distance with a load of experience of the track.

I thought Harvard Avenue was a little interesting. He has been the victim of two straight paceless races where nobody closed an inch. His second to Friendly Island was much better than it looks.

The race is nothing if not a crapshoot.
