Great point, ignore the Euros at your own risk IMO.

Ah, nothing like irrational, poorly thought out blanket commandments for an extremely nuanced 16-race event. At least he'll be gone until Derby time.

That group of Euros was so much better than the group coming over for the turf races this year, it's not even funny.

yea all you have to do is go back to the last BC at Santa Anita when is was even hotter. The Euros stunk up the place. Arcangues and Kotashan come to mind.

I genuinely think folks ten to over-think days like today and tomorrow. It's too hot for Euros, the turf is too firm, etc. Just go with class and forget the voodoo, that's my advice.

I will be at Santa Anita today and I have doped the races just like a normal day and it looks like a chalky day in the breeders cup races, but I'm driving a Honda.

The Euro juvy filly turfer gets beat a phucking nosehair at 12-1 because the jock moved too late. Had nothing to do with where she was foaled or stabled.

I didn't say any Euro would not hit the board , just they as a group would do poorly, sorry you loss.
