I suppose Accredit eased some of the Temple Street and General Quarters bitterness.

Accredit was a hell of a claim. When he was dropped in for a tag I remember thinking I wish I had $75k, I'd snap that one up.

I felt the same way about Charismatic....only I was smart enough not to make such a preposterous redboard here.

What, saying stakes winners they try to sneak by for a tag on the inner is a redboard? I had no idea. He won him in a shake as far as I know so I don't think my opinion was exactly original.

I called and told him he had to snatch that one.. HE said he was already begging KR to drop. It was a no brainer claim.
Accredit was sold from Darley to new owners then they dropped him in for 75k.

How is recalling a conversation you had with someone redboarding?

Trust me after this weekend I have nothing to Redboard. In the Humana (9horse field) today I used 5 horses in some manner thru either a tri or a p4. None of the 5 hit the Super!

I'm a little stunned that wanting to buy a horse for $75K that had run three out of four races with a negative TG #, triple digit Beyers, is considered a redboard.

But not as stunned that a horse that was 15 lengths too slow won America's biggest race.
