I think your opinion is trash, If I called you trash Im sorry.... I think your opinion is based on nothing, for some reasson your ignoring the wet tracks, the layoffs, the injury and everything QR has done since? If SB was healthy for the Donn, he is likely defeated by about 10 lenghts.

Fair enough, no one is 100% right and this is horseracing so opinions are going to vary. Still I don't know why even giving 2 examples, granted they are from 09 that my opinion is trash. This reminds me of Dollar Bill in a way, despite the evidence people would still go to bat for him as a gr.1 animal. I guess we will see BC day who is right.

I love Z, I think she is a lot better then Rachel this year and would have won every single race Rachel won last year, but I think QR is a different breed, a different type of monster.

On his best day he can be, he seems to have his favorite spots to race, I'm not sure if CD will be one of them.

Favorite spots to race? Dude you are throwing **** out with no back up, your just making things up.


Aqueduct his favorite spot? Triple digit beyer first out....

Gulfstream? 4 giant races.....

Belmont? Giant run going 10f in a Grade 1 against a champion

Saratoga? Off a layoff and injury, he runs gigantic to turn back CCMC who comes right back to cross the line first in the Kings Bishop

So what one is his favorite?

He runs big at Gulfstram and Belmont especially, and I am pretty sure the Kings Bishop was run over a very fast track that day, but I think you knew that.

You just compared Quality Road to Dollar Bill. Let's not get hysterical or anything. It would be so unbecoming of a Zenyatta fan.

No I compared the circumstances, but incase someone thought I did, thank you for allowing me to clear that up.

I'm glad you cleared it up but I have no idea what the similarities are between the two. Seriously, think about what Quality Road has done in his career and think about what Dollar Bill did and see if you want to maintain the comparison.

It was self explanatory, it wasn't so much about comparing their race records but more to to about the way they were perceived. Hard Rock Ten thinks QR will be as effective at 1 1/4 as he was at 1 to 1 1/8. I'm not as sure based on what I have seen thus far, add on the low odds he always seems to attract, makes him hard to bet as a win candidate if one wants to look at the wagering angle down the line.

So you make an asinine comment comparing the obvious fanfare of a multiple GI winner to that of a hopeless plodder then back-pedal on your original assertion by no longer saying that QR can't win at 10fs but that you wouldn't bet on him?
