Can't understand why Great Hunter was the only one(of the contenders) without a kick to the wire it wasn't like those fractions taxed anyone. There was a race earlier on the card where the front runners actually held on. I believe they set real fractions and not Teuflesberg type fractions

Curlin can only race against the horses on the track. Not his fault the race was weak. Does Oaklawn still offer a bonus for winning the Arkansas Derby and the Kentucky Derby?
It's too bad Hard Spun is compromised by management.

I won't know who I am going to bet until Derby day. They could pave the track to help get another War Emblem-esque performance. If you break worse than 4th you are out of the money
no, that was a one-time deal for their 100th anniversary. you know that cella was going to pay it all out of his pocket that year if smarty won--til he saw smarty work at churchill. that's when he called the ins co to cover half if they had to pay out.

cella is a smart man.
