Default Help Us Come up with the best Lost in the fog excuses

I have heard many. Please help the blind followers of this decent middle level stake horse explain why this horse has lost against every decent field he has run against.

My favorite so far:

He didnt like the track when losing to Carthage at Golden Gate even though GG is his home track.

Please add the best that you have heard and maybe some new ones that can aid Gilchrist and company.

That's a good one ... but sorry ...

... the best excuse is that he lost because he was horny.

Nothing can top that one.

LOL. Gilchrist and Co. have an Eclipse Award for their horse. They don't need any help.

Do let us all know when you start voting for Eclipse Awards.

And tell me this, since you're such an expert.... When was the last time any Sprinter gave 8 lbs+ in a G2 race? If you say it doesn't matter, then you prove your baseless.

Of course not. They would have been yukking it up proclaiming what geniuses they were for choosing the Summit of Speed for Fog.

Who gives a damn? It's quite obvoius that someone here (cough, cough Dalakhani) has nothing better to do than sit around and bash a horse that has won more money in his career than 99.9% of thoroughbreds will. I could give a damn what excuse the trainers give as it was quite clear from watching the race once that he wasnt himself. No excuses needed...

There it is again!!!!!

Okay, ive got an idea. Lets get LITF into therapy right now. We can get a horse whisperer out to wherever he is currently being stable and lets figure out why "he wasnt himself".

Perhaps we can get him some Paxil?

Maybe he has A.D.D and we can get him some horsey Ritalin?

Or maybe he just needs someone to talk to...you know what i mean?

You're about ready to get proved wrong. I just pulled up all of LITF's PPs and have discovered some crucial information. I will post it tomorrow because I have to go now. It tells me that he wasn't right because he runs in patterns and his patterns have been off this year indicating that something is wrong with him. According to the patterns he runs in, he should have ran a top in the BC Sprint. I seriously don't think it was the fact that he can't face GI sprinters. I want to get to the bottom of this. I could be wrong, but I do think that something went wrong with LITF around BC Sprint time. The numbers indicate that something went wrong. He hasn't been running the patterns since the BC Sprint.

"He wasn't himself"

I think that merits consideration.

Hey, why havent you responded to my little answer to this? Do you feel a little silly? Dont!

There are plenty of sprinters that have given 8+ pounds. Why, oh why, would you think that was such an accomplishment to give 8+ lbs and lose badly?
