Gotta love the whiners that complain to high heaven about poly but bet it anyway..

Hey, simple things for simple people. The Arkansas Derby, with it's 1-2-3 around the track result, and the winner coming again after getting passed in the lane, is right up their alley. Now, that's good/fair/predictable racing.

In fact, all racing should really be like the AQU INNER track.

Hes a crow.

hes fully extended. Amazing that he gets anything at all. He will be a zero factor in L'ville. finish last 17-18-19-20th.

Yes you are wrong. You usually are wrong. It wouldnt matter where that horse was hes not passing anything.

If the jockey rides him the right way yesterday he is a winner.

Your wrong... Your calling a Grade 1 winner a crow. Multiple wins at the best meet in the country. His comeback race this year is the way he needs to be ridden. TT looked like he was going to **** his pants, at any point he could have tucked in behind the top 2, but instead he presses wide the entire trip. You dont win races that way.

Good horse with no limitation runs right by those. He was ridden like the best horse in the race. He was the best horse in that race to a mile. Past a mile forget about this horse being a factor with anything regardless of the ride he gets.
