Its like the guy who picks 8 outta 9 losers on a racecard who harps on teh only winner he had that day at dinner and tells you what a genius he is because of that winner.
I'm so sick of the negativity that flows from so many of the "leading turf writers". You'd think someone who makes a living writing about something would have just a little more love for the game, and a little less bitterness.
He flat out roots against one of America's most popular horses out of just plain wanting to say " I told you so!!!".
Watchmaker is an ass. So he predicted LITF's loss in what was easily one of the tougher races he came against, especially now considering how well Silver Train has progressed. Good for him. Like you say Oracle, WHERE IS HE ON THE 500,000 HE'S BEEN DEAD ON WITH WHO ONLY BEAT THE AMBULANCE HOME?????
