Do people know how to watch a race?

I'm guessing not.

I've watched the Timely Writer once. His MSW maybe twice. His Champaign once and the BC maybe 3 times.

Try watching the horse, as well as the jockey, when you watch a race.

About as stupid a thread to ever grace the board.

If he's healthy, he goes!

If he's healthy he goes. If not they've got Stay Thirsty. How many 2nd stringers ended up winning the derby? A few.
