Nobiz reminds me of Strong Contender for some reason.

I realize that Nobiz disappointed a bit in the Derby, but don't you think this is a little harsh. Next thing you know, he'll be compared to Dr. Pleasure.

I think he 'disappointed a bit' WELL BEFORE the Derby.

I'm not bashing him. He reminds me of Strong Contender because the talent is there, but he's never really let it all out...

I didn't lose money on Nobiz, either. I lost money on Scat Daddy.

Guys come on. this horse won a Grade 1 over a horse many of you here selected to run well in the Derby (AGS). He is a nice horse that did not run particularly well in the derby. neither did a bunch of other horses though not only this year but in years past. To compare him to Dr Pleasure? Get real.

This was his only off the board finish yet and I would say jury is still out on what he is or will become to be honest. I think you will see an improved performance in the Belmont given the pace scenario that usually shapes up and the layout of Belmont Park. Just my two cents
