I simply can't see how someone could take a perfect trip winner who had everything go his way and say in such a matter-of-fact way that he's gonna run an even better race in arguably the most grueling race in America.

a modest improvement off his 2yo top in his second start signals a better top in his third and his style figures him to get another ideal trip any way you cut it.If i could bet he runs a new top i would bet w/ both hands.

See, this is why I need to be paying for someone else's opinion/data.

By forking over my money, I also get to join a cool, sort of exclusive club that uses all these groovy words:

bounce
form cycle
new top

Groovy chickarooney. This is fine ****.

Rather than developing my skill in the game I would then be developing my skill in interpreting the opinion/information of someone else. And I'd have the privilege/pleasure of discussing someone else's ideas on his forum. And there'd even be historical precedence: the Neo Platonists or the Aristotelian apologists, for example. They did much to further the ideas of their master.

Why in the world would I want my own opinion?
