This is basically why winning 3yo fantasy contests against fields of over 2k people is a peice of cake ... people make horrible strategic blunders trying to guess what will happen 3 months from now and forgetting 4 weeks from now is far more important.

Considering he entered the race with two career starts off a six month layoff Sway Away ran a solid race. Sure, the pace was fast but that track is so incredibly tilted against closers.

Does he have a lot to prove still? Absolutely but he surely gained a lot from today's race.

He looked like the right horse to bet on paper in that race. I was certainly going to pick him to beat The Factor on Kasept's show Friday.

I'm not sure he did anything he shouldn't have done in that race today - and I go on facebook and read a lot of people drooling over his "great" performance today.

People on facebook also drool on Uncle Mo's fan page about he and Awesome Maria going on dates. Compared to the people on Facebook, Thoroughbred Champions looks like a meeting between Andy Beyer and Steve Crist.

One thing for certain after reading those. Throughbred horses are arrogant fuks. Everything is Me-Me-Me

A few things:

1. The Factor was gassed in the last furlong. I don't know how anyone could see otherwise.
2. The Factor is not a Derby prospect.
3. The Factor will be retired this year.

It was a very nice race by a very fast horse. But I'll eat my DRF if he wins the Derby. And a slightly smaller newspaper if he makes more than six starts this year.

The Factor entered the race off of a 2 month layoff. With 3 works in those 2 months. Sway Away had 6 workouts since The Factors 1st of 3. Not to mention Sway Away has been pointing to this race since Thanksgiving, if not before that. The Factor was just confirmed for the race less then a week ago because of foot problems.

I hope The Factor never wins again. It's probably the most annoying name for a horse in 20 years.

Sounds like a Jersey Shore character.
