I want to bet Street Sense.......but
 

After researching the field, I really want to bet on Street Sense in the Derby. My hesitation is Street Sense is a filly. When is the last time a Philly has won the Derby and how often does a filly ever win against the boys in Triple Crown Races?

huh?

A "Philly" owned and/or bred won the Derby last year, the Preakness and Belmont in 2005, and the Derby and Preakness in 2004.

If you mean a FILLY, Street Sense ain't a filly.

I am sorry for originally spelling filly wrong which I have corrected. What else did I mess up....sorry for the confusion. I'm kind of a novice.

What the bloody hell?

LOL Joey...

My reaction exactly.

not real sure if you are serious or not...but SS is a colt...not a filly.

DERBY FEVER!!!!!

catch it!!

Funny on clarifying Philly....good job

So Street Sense is not a filly? Now I really feel like an idiot and perhaps I shouldn't do my research during Happy Hour. Sorry for wasting everyones time :)

Wait a minute... are we talking about GPK or Street Sense? :D

:eek:

minor mistake. It could have happened to anyone.

HA!!! A speechless moment. I'm impressed. Be ready for more trouble tonight... :eek:

This thread has done enough. Time to be retired directly to the Charles Hatton Reading Room.

i think they are aiming street sense for the oaks and street sounds for the derby.

hence the confusion

This reminds me of my first post a few years ago at ESPN where I claimed Smarty Jones wasn't a PA bred. Doh!

Jim I'd really like to go out with you..... if only you were a guy...

I'm sorry... kidding.:D

Now no more capping while drinking Roller Doc!

More embarrassing than that is I don't even drink. So I guess there is no excuse. Obviously I need to take my medication from the regulars here. If I saw this, I'd be piling on too.

Is Street Sense going to be the favorite?

I'd imagine he's going to be top 3...

Curlin will probably go off as the morning line favorite, although Street Sense actually deserves to.

Must've been the contact buzz, right? :D

No one's piling on, don't worry.

Curlin will probably be the favorite, but Street Sense should be a close second choice.

I was teasing. I sure as hell don't know everything and I'd rather be wrong than to pretend to know something i don't.

We all still love you. :p

chin up....you still made more sense than GPK and Cajun talking about English Channel and Scat Daddy....respectively

This is the friendliest thread ever.

Do I save any face by revealing my impressive betting record to date:

KY Derby 05 - Afleet Alex (LOST)
Preakness 05 - Afleet Alex (WIN)
Belmont 05 - Afleet Alex (WIN)

KY Derby 06- A.P Warrior (LOST BIG TIME) - what hurts more is I had Barbaro and changed at the last second.
Preakness 06 - Barbaro (CATASTROPHIC LOSS)
Breeders Cup - Invasor (WIN)

So I have bet six races in my life and have won three. 50%.....not bad.

its about to turn ugly when I put a beat down on Fagers ass....:D

you related to Scavs??? He used to love that rat...:D

Or when someone talks about English Channel's last major victory.

I would bring it up, but frankly, it's been so long I don't remember it.

and further you tumble....keep your sh*t up and you won't even be on my list:cool:

I don't think A.P. Warrior has crossed the finish line yet.

HHH can tell you there's a parallel universe and i'll bet you right now, this thread has it's opposite... filled with hatred and loathing and, and..... :D

Right, Hoffy?

Well lucky for you, I've demonstrated time and again that I don't choose my words based on my ranking on arbitrary homogay lists that other people make :D

Thank goodness for you I don't, or I'd really have nothing to say. Ever.

not a prayer of that happening:rolleyes:


"I guess you are just not used to that, are ya?"

FUNNIEST MOMENT EVER in my life.

That parallel universe is where the misfits who couldn't play nice over here ended up.

is that place something like the land of the misfit toys?

You? Did you read his signature?!!! :( :D

I had him in my tri box too... what a freaking rodent. Lucky for him, he's bred somewhat similar to Bernardini (although SLOW.) He might get some decent mares booked to him.

I think we are gonna be getting a thank you card from Erin for keeping him occupied and out of her hair:D

yea i say curlin will be the fav.
but not in my book.

See thats where you are all mistaken A.P. was never in last years derby he's just pre-entered for this years, suckers he has a huge head start now......

Huh?

The good thing about your "list," is that it cuts to the core of what I am after: your approval.

Lucky for me, if you get that gig in PDX, I've got something that cuts to the core of what you're after: women. I've got lots of them. Pretty ones, too. Keep this charade up and I'm sure you'll have a great time finding a way to meet them on your own :D
