Damn. I'd have cheered on a simultaneous knockout by both fighters.

The Rapid Redux comparison is foolish to say the least. Take it on the arches rock head

I also like Louisville moneyline tonight.

People love to misconstrue and overreact....especially on the internet.

You honestly believe comparing Winx's streak which includes 13 G1's to Rapid Redux was a fair comparison ? People miscontrue and overreact ?
I think you just put it out there to see if you can stir up the board.

Like when he posted that Songbird was retired because she got beat, even though it was because she was injured ?
..... Kind of like one of those little guys who live under bridges

But Cloud Computing is a star, ( who won the Preakness because of such a poor ride on the runner up ) and hasn't done anything since .

Next thing you know, you'll say something exquisitely idiotic, like the stewards faked the photo in the distaff.

Nah, nobody could be that dumb.

He didn't take his own advice and read your original post correctly, instead just making his usual snide comment for no reason.

Another new low for you. And you're wrong again, just like with Sunday Silence and Easy Goer, just like Zenyatta, just like Songbird.

Do us all a favor and talk a long walk off a short pier.

Most losers hate winners is prophetic, can I steal that. Good news Andy will be wrong at least 5 or 6 times tomorrow so we can all eat bom boms on the couch and watch him make a fool of himself.

I understood his post to mean the following:
1. the best horse doesnt always win the race
2. Winning and or losing a race is not the be all end all
3. Winx is running against the best her region has to offer a region that is typically devoid of most of other continents best talent.
4. 20 in a row is an accomplishment it doesnt prove greatness ie: Peppers Pride
5. Winx is great perhaps one of the greatest but to steal from Sam Siegel she doesnt get me as pumped as Black Caviar.

This is dumb....and I think you know that. As a rule, making any post that even vaguely resembles something Alabama Stakes says is a poor idea.

I used Rapid Redux, and this was obvious, to make the point that extended winning streaks, used in isolation to suggest greatness makes little to no sense. All you do, actually, with responses like this, is agree with me.

The whining here is preposterous. I never even came close to knocking Winx, and anyone that actually read what I posted knows this.

Oh brother.
1. The winner gets the winning purse whether some trip handicapper thinks he was best or not as do the people who bet on the winner.
2. Winning is the be all end all. It is a race.
3.her region ? Did you see one of her victims roll again at woodbine against our best in this region we call earth?
4.why don't you tell us about the 20 in a row hosses you know . Oh yeah, there are none. 13 grade I races are part of the streak. Pure genius mo.
5. Black caviar was also great, but has nothing to do with Winx. Try watching her races before you start typing.
Your post is worse than his comparison to rapid redux.

While I am typically WRONG. I wear you dissent as a badge of honor and it certainly feels good. You wouldnt know a "hoss" from a hog but that's ok the world needs all types

Lady Songbird was a hoss. Beholder was a hog.

Lets end this nonsense so I can get back to my favorite pastime of spending hours picking winners and then changing my mind at the last minute. The more I think of it you are right. Comparing Rapid Redux to Winx was a fair comparison. Been involved in this game for over 50 years and I can't remember(not that I remember much these days) too many horses that have run off 20 race win streaks. Any horse that can do that even in claimers is rare and special. To do that vs mainly Graded Stake company is extremely special.
Now my bank account would like to run off a one day winning streak. Good luck today.

Wait, so there are people on here that think still think Songbird is an all time great?????

Not only that, there is one guy who thinks Songbird really won the Distaff and that the photo was faked.

No one I have read that is worth a salt has ever said that.

Its very popular to take twitter and random message posts and make it the "general consensus".

No one said it period. She couldn't warm Zenyatta up, in my opinion.
But.....She ran awesome every time. I still think if Money Mike took her out to see Forever Unbridled, she never would have let her by. She still just got beat despite not being healthy. No one has been able to produce a mirror image photo of Beholder beating her. I'm sure someone would love to post it and shut me up, but since Songbird won, it won't ever happen, or It would have already. Right ?

There aren't many all time greats. Songbird = great, not an all time great.

It's when they do things that others couldn't you take notice.
Winx checks off that box.
Simply put........she's an all time great.

ADJMK 10-06-2017 11:38 AM

Runs tonight.

_ed_ 10-06-2017 03:39 PM

Humidor is an amazing horse in his own right and he loves Flemington - this won't be easy for Winx, having her first start at the track. But I still think she'll do it, of course.

_ed_ 10-06-2017 11:23 PM

And she did.

Alabama Stakes 10-06-2017 11:33 PM

She is visually impressive every time. She looks like a quarter hoss running that last quarter of a 10 furlong race. Would be cool to see her vs enable and lady Eli.

I’m sure there were a couple out here rooting against her. Maybe next time.

ADJMK 10-07-2017 11:46 AM

Just another romp in a $500,000 race at a track she never raced at.
Wins whether its 7f or 1/1/4. Soft or fast ground. Crushes G1 winners including males like they are $10 claimers..

I'll believe she's the real deal when she beats Rapid Redux.

They laugh with me
They laugh at you. Just like everyone laughed when you predictably pussied out last year on Alabama Day.

Belmont
$40 pick 5
2 3 4 6/ 1 3 4 5 8/all/ 1 4 5 7 8/ all

$200 dd
2 4 6 / 1 3 4
2 6 / 1 3
$200 exacta box
2 4 6

Surly with his ridiculous analogy of Rapid Redux to the mighty Winx was deserving of that jab from Kitan.
Maybe you should head to Church and listen during mass for a change. God looks out for fools and idiots like yourself.

My exacta box max is 100. Show me 1 $40 pick 5 or double where I went 3x3 and I'll donate to a charity of you're choice today. You can't though because you're a lying worthless pos. You bring nothing to this place.

Says the king of snide remarks and condescending posts.
I love when the Surly one calls someone an idiot because he doesn’t agree with him , and in the same post he tells them how smart they are, and that they are better than that.
