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?

About the Kings Bishop being run over a track yielding fast times or questioning if a board favorite will excel at 1 1/4? It's just outrageous isn't it?

What the **** does the KB have to do with it, my point was that QR beat a horse who came right back 3 weeks later to run a winning race in a G1, why are you bringing it up as if QR ran in it?

By the way I only agreed that the Dollar Bill analogy in it's context, as to some continuing to believe and I stress "continuing " since this is the common thread of Dollar Bill supporters was accurate as much as you tried to obfuscate the comparing of the 2. Nice try...but not quite.

So now you're ready to admit you've been talking out of your ass with that idiotic comparison?

What does this all have to do with some idiot running a horse off of a 7 year layoff?

Nothing, but if one questions if a horse(a board favorite) if they can get a distance, it becomes an interesting half hour of mud slinging of particular body parts.

"UPDATE: Shortly after publication of the article, an official with the Pennsylvania State Horse Racing Commission told the Paulick Report that Violet Eyed Diva will be scratched. She will be prohibited from racing in Pennsylvania until stewards are satisfied with her racing fitness."
