I can't figure out what this means.

what i mean is as much as all the rabbit use, dutrows rep, etc, indomitable didn't skip the race, he bet and won. i just think it's kind of ironic on his part to complain, when he used all that info to hit the race.

I disagree. The "win at all costs attitude" can be questioned even if you made money on the race...We aren't betting on saints.

well, that's true!! which proves my point. ID was offended enough to skip the race, recognizing what was going on helped him make money. dutrow makes no apologies, i'm certainly not trying to do it for him!

Still though, anyone that knows Dutrow's habits recognizes that Indom. observations are dead-on.

It was the " ID " I didn't understand....I can never figure out these abbreviations. Hell, I just figured out what AGS was last night.

DrugS isn't complaining.....he's just pointing something out. He's pointing out, basically, that Dutrow has proven that there is NOTHING he won't do to win a race. I guess that can be considered good and bad.

sorry, laziness on my part with the abbreviating...

and yeah, it can be good or bad...no doubt silver wagons people are thrilled. but then again, kazoo may not have been. i don't know what he ran the day before--evidently he was able to do the job yesterday. but of course we've seen rabbits pay the ultimate price-bosque redondo for one--so it is good, or bad, or both!
but like i said, it worked-yesterday and with st liam. i'd assume dutrow doesn't really care if anyone else has a problem with using a rabbit--he only answers to his owners. speaking of which, who owns kazoo, and i wonder what they thought about it all....

Dutrow looks like The Penguin.
