It is 2 bad for those who were going to bet Bafferts horse. I hate this speed being out. This hurts Zenyatta a bit as well.

I plan on using him in my yearly super bet for 2nd/3rd/4th.....He is 'my' horse this year.

Tiago was the horse I used in the same situation last year, except I didn't use the Euros....

If Tiago goes in the Classic, I'll be using him too, can't wait to see the reactions to that

Richards Kid is in my top 4... He might crack into my pick 3 and 4 by then.

Using crazy horses is part of what make's the BC the BC. People get fixated on year-long efforts when its how the horse is holding-up for one more effort which means more, in my opinion.

Oh, I'm all about using interesting horses at a price...in fact, and I'm perfectly willing to take all the flak in the world, I plan to bet Gio Ponti in the Classic and Criticism for a piece in the F/M Turf.

I just scoffed at Richard's Kid because I feel like his day passed and while he capitalized on it, I can't see him repeating it. For 3rd or 4th, sure, he's possible, the list of horses who've run 3rd and/or 4th in the BC Classic over the years is not too sparkling.

From who? PETA?

I loved how his connections lambasted the Del Mar surface, saying he, among others, couldn't train on it.

Conveniently they glossed over how he couldn't train over a dirt surface nearby, either.
