I also can't root for anything Mullins is apart of which, admittedly isn't the best handicapping practice. Nice job on Tin Cup Chalice today.
and then there's the ieah factor as well.

well, i would like to see him weave through 20 horse field should he have a flat footed start. another 10 point bounce is not gonna get it done.
