Thank you Grits for showing me the light.

I was wrong. Perfect Drift was charging hard and almost surely would have won by open lengths with a better trip. He is a legend in the game and the most underappreciated horse ever. I am going to try and find a Drifty hat like Buffy and wear it PROUDLY everytime he runs. Oh and Grits you aren't crazy either, everything I have said in this thread has been wrong.
No, everything you have said in this thread has not been wrong, not at all. There was nothing wrong in noting Perfect Drift's seconds. It was how you noted them, and continued to do so.

Knowledge is a very good thing when used and delivered well. And you are very knowledgable about the sport. And in that, I am sincere, I wouldn't trouble myself to be otherwise.

When the knowledge one has is delivered in such a way as to be a put down or smart alec--to me it casts a shadow on that person and for obvious reasons their knowledge is no longer as important to me due to the need I recognized in them to disparage.

It does not concern me that you think me psycho; that you think me crazy. That's your decision.

As Byk says, this place is like a University campus with many students, even a few seasoned and aged faculty members here, as well.
