I played all kinds of tickets with him off the board. NONE of them with D'tara on top. :mad:
i was hoping it would happen. wasn't sure it would, but hoping like hell!!

its a big what if, but I was going to single Casino Drive today. I have said that I felt Casino Drive would have drilled Big Brown. of course he wasn't going to be able to do that with a bum leg.

I'm just wondering if the comparisons to Secretariat will die down a bit now.

I hope he could because this race came up with a 79 cannonshell figure (that is a bad number-btw)

stupid.

I guess my love for horses outweighs my dislike for humans, I was alive to six horses in the pic 4, and was still rooting for Big Brown

It's ok. The field was garbage.

like the horse knows what was on the line. has nothing at all to do with love for a horse. he's a decent horse. i just didn't think he was worthy of winning the tc. and he wasn't.

yeah. not preakness garbage...but not too good either. definitely a lackluster group-but we've been spoiled the last few years.

I wanted a smashing Big Brown victory today and this is a way to cover the feelings of another Triple Crown winner going down in flames.

Big Brown acted like a horse who ran out of air. High humidity puts extra stress on the lungs, it would not surprise me if he bled in his lungs. Or maybe like me, he gets nasal passages full of mucus due to allergies in that kind of weather.

Or like you maybe he was full of something else and couldn't relieve himself before the race.
