He was a very talented horse who was a victim of being a plodder. I used him as an example.

I could have used Giacomo....but I thought I would use an actual good horse.

You really should have used Giacomo, 3/4ths of the board dont even remember who Dynever was.

Thanks you for making up for your prior lack of poor grammar.

It is. I think the Arabs changed it. Also long gone were all the horses he was trying to pass in the stretch. Well, at least one per race.

At least the two of you were able to extract the important aspects of my post. And, most incredibly, one of you didn't include his usual massive grammatical and spelling errors.

Don't recall the new owners changing Dynever's name. And he passed a few in the DWC as I recall.

Street Sense should have won the Preakness. If Borel doesn't look back and spends that fraction of a second going to his left hand instead of turning his head, I believe he wins. He certainly did the horse no favors the last 50 yards and a left hand was in order given his move back to the rail habit.

could you please explain this idea in more detail?

i was kinda thinking borel blew the race because he didnt take a crap before the race and that extra 3 ounces probably cost him 3-4 lengths.

i like your theory better though!
