Well they are running the Tesio on 5/7 too:D Think that is only a mile

Rileyoriley 04-09-2011 05:05 PM

At least he can beat Toby's Corner. This makes the Gotham a key race! LOL

Forget the Triple Crown for this year and go ahead and buy the NY Mets....

No Mo!

Of course they go. All of the talk will be about how losing was the best thing that could have heppened to him and how much he got from the race. Just wait.

I would still take him head to head with Stay Thirsty for any sum of money.

The last couple weekends have proven this class is bad. I would run anything with the earnings at this point.

You never know, he might've hurt himself. It could've caused the loss or happened when he was trying hard not to lose. These days I don't count on a horse making the Derby til the post parade starts. Something didn't look quite right much farther back than it should've if he was just getting tired. It makes me wonder if, for no other reason than to rule out something physical, they've already booked an x-ray for Mo.

I didn't see him looking absolutely amazing and then hit a distance wall. Who knows what that was all about.

I wouldn't be scared to face this Derby field with my dog... Pack up the van.

boswd 04-09-2011 05:28 PM

I say why not go forward, I mean it is entirely possible he just threw in a clunker. All sports stars don't have Hall of Fame numbers every time they perform. I'm sure Ted Williams had a few o-4 days in his career.

I say go forward

HaloWishingwell 04-09-2011 06:00 PM

The higher the stakes and the longer the distances the more this crop is beginning to stink up the joint. With Uncle Mo's showing today I expect full fields for the remaining preps as everyone scrambles to get enough money to make the wide open Derby this year.

Yeah but when the Splinter went 0 for 4, he rarely struck out

Happily, the connections of Secretariat decided to go after something like that.

:rolleyes:

fpsoxfan 04-09-2011 06:17 PM

Really? I mean really? Unless this horse comes back with syphilis he's going.

Indian Charlie 04-09-2011 06:21 PM

Do people know how to watch a race?

I'm guessing not.

AeWingnut 04-09-2011 06:22 PM

I was hoping he would have waited to do this in the Derby

ummm, there's always Saratoga

Danzig 04-09-2011 06:24 PM

of course you run him. hell, what kind of sport would this be if you stopped on a horse because of a loss??
