Big Brown WOW!!!!

[The Indomitable DrugS]

He hadn't run on the turf since his debut - and was difficult to settle early on.

I think if he met Proudinsky and Shakis again in a few weeks the outcome would likely see him winning much more convincingly.

I bet Proudinsky and thought he had every chance for sure.

Does the performance deserve a capital wow and four exclamation points? Of course not - that posters only job is to rack up the points and try and cement his status as the #1 pick in the '09 DT Fantasy tard draft.

I thought the performence deserved a WOW!!! however most are bias on the forum, against BB and remember he's moving up from 3yr old races to older horses. Will he win the classic? I'm not sure, however I bet he gives a good account of himself. The horse is 7/8 winners and still only 3. If he wins
Classic a lot of people will rag it because they hate Dutrow.

I couldn't agree more. It is amazing to me the lack of respect for Big Brown. Many on this Board can only find the negatives or excuses why he deserves little credit. He's had a stellar year and the best thing that has come along in 2008. Would love to see Big Brown win the BCC.

its okay.. if he wins the BCC he'll still suck in the eyes of this board. If he somehow beats Curlin in the Clark posters will come up with something and BB will still suck. Dont let the fact that Derby Trail hates big brown bother you too much!

I kinda agree with you here but a "WOW" does not sit here. It was a much better performance as compared to the Haskell. Desormaeux knew what he was doin setting the fast pace and BB had the GUTS to hold off the others.
The field was filled with G3 caliber horses but it wasnt BB's fault.
