A couple of early races were super fast early for the level, but all in all even if the track was playing a bit "fast," it was definitely not as fast as...

No idea what the next few weeks will bring, but have been waiting for quite some time for a team with what looks like a real chance to get somewhere in the postseason.

Don't think there's much chance he's at his 30/1 ML at post time, but if this horse gets over the turf at ALL like he gets over the Poly, look out. Not much pace in here, and he just cleared his NW1X...

Wow. Maybe I'll end up wrong, but I got the feeling this winter that the runner-up was going to turn into a pretty decent one, but Silver Max made him look silly.

Ok, I know next to nothing about betfair, but basically then it's not like they're pounding this horse down to 7/1 for a race that 1.) He won't get into 2.) He'd be 40/1 in that day?

I'm not maintaining that he necessarily did, either. But is a half a path before a horse knocks your hind end a DQ offense?

We'll all have differing opinions, and at the very least, the decision...

In your best estimation, why did "Game On Dude [run] sideways into Twirling Candy?"

A left-hander from Chantal drove his hind end to the outside?

He's for real, he threatened to kill me twice while shaking my hand at Aqueduct this past winter.
