History is littered with two year olds that looked great in the summer and didnt make it in fall when it was time to add the turn and the extra distance. Could you blame it on the track with those horses as well?

Circular Quay looks to be an extremely talented animal. He may not take to the track but then again he may not take to churchill downs either. He may love the added distance. Then again, he may not.

I will be betting on another horse (passport more than likely) in this race if for no other reason than the price on CQ being short with too many unknown variables. Those same unknown variable would be there on any track though.

As for Poly, i am with Pillow Pants in that there havent been enough races run on it to make any kind of real determinations. As for now, trainers like your boy Pletcher seem to love it. The racing is more exciting as the fields are consistently bigger.

Thats two who covered all bases without a prediction. Thanks again, I handicap people pretty well also.

Hey, youre the one with the agenda dickbrain. For you, it is a no lose propostion.

If CQ wins, you can gloat about how you knew he was the greatest thing since wheat bread.

If he loses, you can preach your "anti poly" doctrine.

Lovely.
