These races like the Bluegrass are supposed to be competitive betting races with a decent sized field. It isn't...the premier race at Keeneland is a snoozefest that offers no value. A glorified match race. The sport can't survive with races that aren't bettable. Your point of just watching the race and shutting up about it is RIDICULOUS.
Now we are getting back to legit. There are tons of races that are better betting races. I think the frustration is that these are big races, the lead up to possibly the world's most important race. And I am very interested in them. So big race, I wanna have a bet because I have been watching these guys closely and have an opinion. Except they are not bettable. I understand that frustration.
So I would recommend the Arkansas. I think if the track is off, Curlin is vulnerable. He is on the inside. I think he will get lots of mud in his face (with the way he starts) which he has never experienced. The problem as always is who do you like here. So now I quit as this is a Bluegrass thread.
