Why? He arguably has 3 of the top 5 handicap horses in the country.

One could argue he has three of the top three. Speaking of arguing, why are you more timid than usual (multiple uses of arguably) today?

Not totally sold on Cupid yet. But he did run huge last time. At this point i would still rate Gun Runner ahead of him.

Yeah, I agree but you can still build a weak case for cupid.

They seem to be treating Gunrunner like the second coming now.

I agree, though this field is a bit trash so he does not have to run all that well to win.

And about Baff, when you get the horses he does, it's because you get the results he does.

Never been a huge fan, but he has progressed well and should crush these horses.

He ran well...

interesting ride on Bird Song

Guess that just shows how big the gap is with Arrogate and the rest of the dirt horses.

Gotta respect Gun Runner. Travels all over and seems to improve every time. He cant beat Arrogate but that's OK. Lots of big races to be won.
