Perhaps the most utterly ridiculous comment in the history of the internet.

I have to assume the Beyer figure for Domincan will come back in the high 80's or low 90's.

My Typhoon, who came from mid-pack into the teeth of 50 and change fractions, ran a final time that represents a figure 13 points faster.

Perhaps the Bluegrass figure will be inflated a little by the figure maker because of the comically slow pace....though it was far from the only very slow pace at KEE yesterday.

Curlin's number should come back in the 104-to-107 range...which will make him the horse with the top figure around two-turns come Derby day.

Default Darrin Miller on ATRAB Friday

Here's the link to listen to trainer Darrin Miller, who I've talked to several times since Lane's End Day. Dominican should not be dismissed as a Poly horse. He's had a variety of issues in his PP's including the entrapped testicle/ridgling scenario restricting his stride and Robby Albarado restricting his success.. This is a very nice horse.

Miller starts the segment..

Listening to you Sat AM reinforced my feelings on the Bluegrass and made me mor confidant in using him for a single in my pk 4. Thanks.

In fairness there once were people touting Tapit for the derby.
