I make the total 5 1/2.

So is this guy blind?

If Stay Thirsty is a bet against what does that say about the chalk in that race given this workout report from 8/26 and what your saying?

It says you're refusing to consider that different people can get different impressions from workouts.

Rather leggy looking sort. A bit green as well.

I'll restate the obvious. Router.

If you really want to see a future star, the last thing you want is some horse blitzing the group by 10 with blazing fractions.

Exactly my thought..Reading Doug's overview of his sale breeze this is kind of what was expected from him...

I came out of retirement to bet him too, mostly because his sire was the damsire of Uncle Mo.

Sorry I missed the race.

No one told me the second coming was scheduled for today.

I don't like the 8-hosses-only rule; makes for shorter prices in baby races.

As for Archwarrior, meh. Orb, trained by the 21st-century Shug who no longer wins with firsters, was, IMNSHO, far more impressive in his first start.

How " not so humble " is your opinion now?
