"Nobiz Like Shobiz will ultimately prove to be the best of this crop."

"Bittel Road offers value in Derby Futures at 150-1."

Oh settle yourself down, it was clearly hyperbole. Point being I don't make a habit out of chastising other people's right to have opinions just because I don't agree with them.

You were just the best example I could think of off the top of my head of someone who I don't always agree with. However, I did love your POTN manifesto/post-Derby wrap up, but you know since that didn't fit the paradigm I've so carefully crafted over these years, the one where other opinions should not be shared unless I agree with them, I chose not to say anything postitive about it even though I read the entire thing.

Though if the "hundreds" portion were actually true, taking out the Zanjero thing would have been way unfair to me, since the sheer lunacy of it almost counts for hundreds on its own merits.

You ARE aware that he came within half a length of winning a Grade I, right? And I got 10-1 odds.

And Colonial Colony actually DID win one....let's not get carried away here about what that all may or may not mean.

Not to belabor this ridiculous issue, but my prediction was that Zanjero would win a Grade I someday. Not that he was a great horse. I'm not defending his merits. I'm defending the merits of my prediction that he would win a Grade I.
