Kent D said that he slipped slightly coming out of the gate... here's maybe why.

Add it to the list.
Although you might pull it out and summon the tooth fairy.
It'll be worth more than any loosing BB tix.

that picture says to me that it probably did have a negative effect on his race that day. it could have been 100% responsible since none of us knows what running with a loose horse shoe feels like....but it sure doesn't look comfortable.

i'll say the loose shoe was 35% responsible for his loss that day.

i would say it was 45 % jockey error for restraining him the first 1/4 mile.

and i think it was 20% "bounce"

how do you come up with those figures? based on what? other horses have thrown shoes, had loose shoes, and won or hit the board. i think it was devils bag who pulled two loose in one race and still won.

well, that's true... i was just wondering what your %'s were based on-i'd say it was 100% not his day, rather than trying to break down what % was possibly based on what.

No, but we do know how horses react when something is bothering them in their feet and, in this case, never at any point did Big Brown show any indication that any of his feet were bothering him. We also know that horsemen like Rick Dutrow know a hell of a lot more about what is bothering their horse than idiot faux-busisnessmen like Michael Iavarone.
