Peppi Knows' win at least shows us that Buddy's Saint was running away from a decent horse in the Remsen before he was geared down.

The most interesting thing about this post is not that you did your usual post-race hit and run redboard, as that was expected, but you also included a post race evaluation......and it was shockingly inept.

How could anybody think today's race actually flattered Buddy's Saint?
