Most horses have issues by the way. Even those of us not on the inside know that.

And, furthermore, who said anything about him breaking down? Besides you of course.

Well I am pretty confident Dr. Franklin will win, but it is harder to win at Belmont than Gulfstream. The layoff concerns me a little, but I am using cash not bodog account money on him, so $20 WPS is pretty much my limit. I find when I bet with cash, regardless of how much I win, I waste it back betting useless things like pick 6's. My offshore account has saved me thousands over the years.

And you couldn't have asked for a better ride. It looked like the race was fixed.

Well, of course you weren't wrong, it was obviously a fixed race.

She did get a lousy ride....and then backed up when the real running began in the stretch.

The horse who had the impossible journey was the favorite, Calla Lily, as at least she could have been a contender. Now More Than Ever was never a contender.

I'm never wrong.


I do however seem to run into a lot of fixed races.

Of course she was never a contender, she got CHOKED and snatched on the first 3/4 mile. Did you watch the race carefully?
