I am so sick of everyone trying to insinuate that Jazil is worthy of some extra respect because he won the most irrelevant race in the world, a 12f dirt race in America. So what. Does Sarava deserve respect too? Neither of them deserves any respect for anything. They were the best horses on that day in probably the weakest grade ones of their respective years at a distance that doesn't matter anymore. Give it a rest talking about how great it is to have a classic winner back at four. I'd rather have Bluegrass Cat back instead of Jazil. I think it's better for the game that Brother Derek and Lawyer Ron are back than it is that Jazil is back. At least those horses are multiple graded stakes winners. Hell, it's better for the game that Corinthian is back than it is Jazil. I mean, he's beaten him ALL THREE TIMES they've met.

I must have missed all the threads started by people betting bags of money on Jazil in Florida.This board has really gotta put an end to all the Pro-Jazil threads.So damn many of them.

Some people can get away with gloating about winnings and bashing horses who win big races, some cant.

I have it at 3/5 he'll be back by the weekend. Doh!

I consider this a MONUMENTAL achievement, we have been around here since May, like 9 months, and this is our first "I'm leaving post"

I bought one of these for myself, but how about we all pitch in 50 cents to a dollar and buy one of these for pointgiven?

I think it's perfectly appropriate!
