God that was awesome. What a memory. Even though PP had it in the bag. He had already given MDO the ole evil eye. Funny thing about that race, I am life long friends with his exercise rider Crystal, our moms have been best friends for over 30yrs. We had a big old breakfast get together at her moms house to watch the race. We were so excited during the race that the phone starts ringing off the hook, it is 2 of the neighbors wanting to know what was the matter and if we needed the police. Seems we were cheering ole PP on just alittle to loudly! As you can tell by my screename I am alittle partial to him.

Even though MDO was 2nd, I thought it was his best race. My daughter and I were also cheering for Pleasantly Perfect! My neighbors are used to it by now.

I just have this feeling that I will wake up tomorrow and read a headline something like this "Discreet Cat spikes fever - withdrawn from WC"

Or perhaps that DC is so far superior to every horse in the field and in the world that he has, in fact, ALREADY won the World Cup by tomorrow morning.

I obviously think that your winner will come from either DC or Invasor, but Vermilion looks the part to snag a piece too the more I look at it.

I think this love for Premium Tap in here is misplaced. How he beats these I don't know. He's an underlaid price anyway.

invasor!! his lone loss may have been vs discreet cat, but that was a year ago--and a rotten trip from what i understand for invasor, who was coming on again at the end. time to turn the tables, and get revenge for a blemish on his otherwise perfect record--and give DC one in turn!

If u watch the start, Invasor breaks smartly but is under pressure from a long long way out, it looked like he just couldnt go the gallop..
should be a cracker alright. would love DC to keep his unbeaten run going but Invasor is just such a tough horse!
