It is always interesting (how can it not be). To have a horse going for the TC and for there to be so much negativity around him is a story all by itself. The slimy connections and the daily sleaze that came out. Dutrow enough said tere. The whole 3 weeks of Casino Drive/Quarter crack press. From War Pass, to Pyro and Colonel John not running a lick in the Derby. To the Eight Bells tradgedy (which personally I think took alot of the fun out of the races). Synthetic to first time dirt and so on, definatley interesting. As far as fun, I am not sure. Because deep down I am not sure if I am happy or sad that he lost. I know that I want to se a triple crown winner in a bad way. But for some reason deep down I didn't want it to be this horse. I just can't explain it, but I understand where you are coming from when you say no fun.
