No, I did not have Einstein. I didn't think Commentator would lose the race. I said I was glad to see him back.

thats the lamest breakdown of his races possible..dont be haten on commentator ..hes proven his worth far past most of the last 3 years of horses in his path.. to cake 44

Alright, alright...money burner is way too strong a term for a horse that has made as much $$ for his connections as Commentator has. I'll also admit that I have a strong bias because of getting burned by him. I am still looking forward to getting some of that $$ back beating him as a 2-5 or 3-5 favorite though. I definitely missed in the Clark in every which way possible, but there will be another opportunity or two.

OK, you're off the hook, as you have now broken the cardinal internet rule of ever admitting any possibility you might be wrong.

Thanks.

Don't you wish they gelded more horses? There might be a real industry if (of course its fantasy land) colts couldn't start breeding until after they became 4 year olds.
