just remember to be objective about hennys race now....i mean, his beyer would have been one or two points in either direction had mach speed not had a bad start.....

You all can't be serious again can you?
What the **** is going on around this place? Are you all hungover?

It has nothing to do with cracks of the whip(which won't even get you a length) or any of the other nonsense menationed here.

It has to do with pace!!! High Finance went in 23 flat and 45:4. very soft fractions on yesterdays strip which allowed him to have a full tank of gas and fly home.

HH went in 22:2 and 44:3. Do you really have to be a ****ing rocket scientist to see that he used far more energy early and therefore had a superior race to the other horse? I mean folks, this is handicapping 101.

Again ... I ask the same question I always ask ...

If it's so easy to have a full tank and fly home after very soft fractions ...

... how come none of the other horses did it?
