Me too.. I'm just telling you, don't expect it to matter to any of these people.. They'll be too busy complaining about who isn't running to appreciate who is.

I think DC is the fastest horse in the universe now that Bernardini's gone, and even when Bernardini was around I always said I thought DC might be faster anyway.

I'm looking forward to it.

You're either with ateam or against him.

He'll win easy today.

Gomez was confident as hell even with Silver Train ahead at the rail and Badge of Silver on the outside coming to him. Still never hit him and didn't ask him until real late.

Gotta see him go two turns in America.. DC vs. Invasor.. I'm drooling.

I couldn't agree more. Have you ever seen a jock that confident after his horse went 1:07 for 6 furlongs. OMG.

No I haven't. He was sitting confident and chilly through truly mindnumbing fractions. When I saw how the initial stages of the race set up I thought that this could be the day he gets caught because BOS was laying back while ST took it to him. That was a great performance.

He made 2 very good older horses who ran very good races look mediocre. He friggin equaled the track record under a damn hand ride. Best horse in the nation no doubts anymore.

If Discreet Cat once agains destroys the field, there won't be much anyone can argue about in terms of is he the fastest horse in the world. It would be hard to argue for another horse. And there is nothing soft about todays competition.

The only remaining thing that I would want to see are some races from him at two turn classic distances.

I share the same thoughts as you and Randall do. Discreet Cat wins for fun here today.

Discreet Cat wins for fun if he gets to the lead early. . . the speed bias at AQU is absolutely ridiculous today. . . I hope it's gone by the Cigar. . .

I have to agree with you hooves. I like sharp humor to put in a big effort today. Probably can't win, but will be up close early and very gutsy.
