Also, I'm guessing Pure Clans trip today wasn't questionable its self and may have also affected her outcome on todays race?

I certainly dont think anyone is a "messiah" of any kind although in this case i wish i did because i then would have cashed today on this race. Instead, i am holding worthless paper with the 1 on top.

I brought this topic back up because I remembered it from a few weeks ago. If Pure Clan would have won, someone would most likely have pulled this topic back up and asked BTW if he still felt Backseat Rhythm was better than Pure Clan. I thought it only fair to bring it back up as I originally disagreed with him.

Going into today i didnt even think it was close between the two horses. Obviously I was wrong.

To say that Backseat Rhythm shouldnt at least take a shot at the BC really doesnt make much sense to me unless there is some crazy freak euro coming over. If Pure Clan is going to be the favorite, i think that they would be foolish not to at least give it a shot.
