Little Belle is not much.

You know, I haven't seen anyone on this blog speak with as much certainty as you do. I would think you hit the pic 6 every day based on how confident you are of your assertions and judgements. Perhaps you are just compensating here.
Little Belle was coming off of a tough race where she put away a number of these horses in the Oaks. Came back a bit short by Mclaughlin's standards and ran a game race against a horse who was just hitting her stride. And, dare I say, you are wrong, there wasn't a photo for second. Little Belle was a clear second. But, my point was that the horse went to "Godawful" and without any injury or reason apparent, hasn't worked since April. Certainly a man in possession of the knowledge that you have has some understanding of the Etched, Little Belle, Unbridled Heart ...... "promotions". Just try to resist your urge to beat-up on folks and their opinions. You probably do have alot of info that many of us can benefit from. However, you disrespect yourself and your thoughts with cheap shots that I have seen you take fairly regularly on here.
