I didn't bet the race but I'm not surprised. If that horse is good enough to beat Charlatan, that tells me he's a pretty talented horse and that he was pretty much dismissed in the odds was surprising.

He won by a head in a three horse photo.

Pre-race opinions are better than "I wasn't surprised" and some allusion to the bettors being dumb for letting him pay a whopping 6:1.

Personally when I handicap top tier international 12 furlong turf races I look for the horse that has never been the trip but was able to beat an oft-injured miler in a 9 furlong race on the dirt.

Let's see if he gets lost in the betting for his next start in either the Tour de France or the Indy 500...

I won't be surprised after the race if he wins either or both

I said I didn’t bet the race. It’s not like I came on here saying I won a bet on him. I’ve been on record that I love Charlatan. This horse beat Charlatan so I had more respect him than I did before he won. Never called anyone a moron for not betting him. I DIDN’T BET HIM MYSELF!! I leave all the name calling to you.

I think that as a well respected person in the industry that gets paid to give his opinion, you wouldn’t waste your time commenting on the opinions of anonymous person, basically a nobody compared to your level, in such a way to try to continuously prove your superiority. I would think that your superiority is already well established and you’re just wasting your time constantly commenting on my comments. I mean, me, I would just laugh and move on if someone I had no respect for says things that I think are ridiculous. This has been going on for years. I just don’t get it. But, because I’m a nice guy, I’m going to remove my post where I said who I like in the Florida Derby so there will be no record of it and you’ll be free to enjoy the race and the rest of the evening without feeling like you have to meet your obligation to comment on my opinion. You’re welcome.
