We can all guess all day long what would have happen. What if Will Take Charge hadn't been stopped cold? Would have he made a race out of it? |

As for the second part, as much as it would have meant to me if he had won, I am guessing he would have had a hard time making the Super. But that's just a guess with no solid ground either way.

I think if you believe in NI you believe his abilty/potential is equal to Orb's. Like you I dont but what do I know and I could not be more subjective in my peference for the connections. |

![]() was the move premature for normandy invasion, or just premature? would it have been a winning move on a better horse?
i'm not sure that NI is that good, and like chuck i don't think he's bred to go 10f. did the ride really cost him, or was it the final nail in the coffin? |

Both horses get Orb's trip I lean toward Orb Both get NI's trip I don't know They swap trips I lean toward NI So now I compare NI to Oxbow. Orb beat NI by 3 1/2 NI beat Oxbow by 6 Both horses get NI's trip I lean toward NI Both horses get Oxbow's trip I don't know They swap trips I lean toward Oxbow How do I measure how much of a toll Oxbow's trip took on him by running 4/5 faster than NI in the first 1/4 mile and 2/5 (appr.) slower in the second 1/4? I'm just guessing. |
