How is it a dumb argument? And what did Moss do at the HOY ceremony that was classless?

Hey, going from Hollywood to Del Mar counts as shipping.

She punishes you, but also wants to keep giving you hope. That way, she knows you'll come back for another beating. You have a huge shot at beating her with BLAME, but don't bet money that you need.

Yeah, you can bet on it, CSC.

They don't need to ship cross-country looking for RA at this point.

It's all about the BCC now.

Prepping at home … on synthetic … gives her the best chance to be at her best for the Cup, in my estimation (although I wish the race at Anita was 9f instead of 8.5).

So why point the horse to a race at a surface they don't like? That's stupid. Are they really that afraid of shipping/losing?

I have no idea what people would have criticized Moss for. I think he has handled himself great with regards to Zenyatta. He never said that he thought she deserved HOY over Rachel. He has never said that she is better than Rachel. He has been very humble about Zenyatta. I don't know how a guy could have handled himself better.

What is this based on? Something that those lying dirtbag connections said?

Are you really that naive to believe any excuse they throw out there?

Whats next? Do you really believe that flying over the Rockies was a legitimate excuse to not ship east earlier this year?

Or that going 10f against males in the Hollywood Gold Cup last year was too daunting a thing to do with a female horse, despite that moronic trainer running a female in that race anyways?

I don't think they're afraid of losing. She's not a great shipper and they don't want to knock her out. If they were afraid of losing, would they have run in the BC Classic last year instead of the Distaff? If they were afraid of losing would they have agreed to ship to Oaklawn to face Rachel?

You must have missed that press snippet where he wanted to make sure all of her fans in California get to see her one last time, again.

Dude, did CSC hack your account here on DT?

I have a lot of respect for your opinions on here, but wow, you've lost it.

Rupert don't comment on things you have no clue on. A horse racing fan follows things like the Eclipse awards, please don't make **** up. His actions are understated in this article. I wanted to vomit on him after watching his lack of class.

This is based on the fact that people I know that see her train all the time said she looked like she had lost some weight after the Oaklawn race.

For the life of me, I can't figure out what you have against the Mosses. What are all these things you claim they have lied about?

Ok, you have always seemed like an honest stand up guy who knows what he's talking about, so I will concede the weight loss thing to you as you are in a much better position to know than I am.

But cmon, you are pulling my leg on the Mosses, right???
