Yes. Beat Hallow was 3rd by 6 lengths in that English Derby - he came to America and won 3 Grade 1's including the Arlington Million.

That was a great Euro 3yo crop - Sakhee, Sinndar, Giant's Causeway etc.


She was probably the star of Zimbabawe horse racing.

Really? I know he look like he was very talented, but you couldn't find a better selection for that last spot?

He was freaky talented. It makes you wonder, is Todd like a true criminal?? He comes out in wraps, Todd says its nothing at all... Then he is retired 3 weeks later w/ career ending injury.

Agree about the freak, but how are you honestly supposed to rank/asses his chances against a bunch like that?

The thing is if they ran that race 10 times, you could get 10 different winners. QR would never win, Ill admit that. He would certainly hurt Ghostzapper though. Eskendereya would likely pull the best trip everytime.
Im looking for Doug to do a full write up. I want fractions, comments for each. Running lines. I want it all. I want his exacta, tri and super wager.
