The misguided goo-goos that you refer to that had been posting on this thread had the race exactly right. They got what REALLY happened in the Kings Bishop without your assistance, and that is that Henny Hughes affirmed himself as perhaps the best sprinter going right now. Mach Ride was not the subject of what REALLY happened because while he may have lost a few lengths due to his travails, it did not affect the outcome. Your butting in served to draw attention to your sad plight, having selected Mach Ride to beat Henny, but not much else.

Next time, you might want to leave the bitter emotion of a stinging loss at the door before descending from on high to butt in and tell us all what really happened. Or perhaps you might want to read and learn from some of the many threads around here where people such as myself had been saying for weeks to line up to play Henny in the Kings Bishop. Mach Ride was over-matched.

The way I see it if I hadn’t butted in here with my opinion, other people might read this thread and think from your comments that Mach Ride was a wise play against HH and that somehow the trip cost him a victory. What a wonderful thing I’ve done for you people. (lol)

Also people might glean from your comment regarding final time that High Finance would have beaten both Henny Hughes and Mach Ride due to his time being .01 seconds faster. This is the type of simplistic mistaken analysis that a rookie would make, not something one would expect from someone who has put as much time into the game as you have. It was not helpful to those who want to really glean something from the race.
As much as I appreciate it, it really wasn't necessary to embarrass yourself this much.

Thanks anyway.
