He ran OK in a subpar race. I think that most of us that liked his chances were banking on this being a subpar race.

I'm not joking and my intent is not to break your balls, believe me. I know that you've been following the game for a long time, and when you banked on the race being subpar, given the way you bet it, I'm assuming that you thought the winner was a subpar horse as well. In that case, I can understand trying to beat him with horses that some would think were subpar in relation to him. But you also add that it wouldn't suprise you if he won by open lengths and to not take advantage of a $37.00 double (since you had the winner of the Oaks) just doesn't make sense to me.
And I also don't think, out of hand, that DoC is any better than some of the other closers in the race; he just happened to make the last move.
