Riiiight.



It won't happen, don't worry.


Put down the crack pipe.

Do I want him to win?

YES.

Do I think he deserves to win?

YES.

Will he?

No. Bayern will.

I would rather see Dan win again or hell... Demonstrative (won the Turf Writers and the Lonesome Glory and 2nd in the Smithwick and don't worry I know that won't be happening. Just saying I would prefer him to Bayern).

Bayern is a very good horse who, like CC, ran at different tracks and all year.

The thing that no one is mentioning (and I don't believe it's the deciding factor BUT I think it might make it easier for people not to vote for him) is his idiotic owners bitch-fit of a rant... the finest example of poor sportsmanship I have ever witnessed in my life. What an embarrassment.

Love Chrome and always will. Hope I'm wrong but I think we should live with the reality that Bayern might pull a Bayern and steal this (too).

Hey I kept my mouth shut after the Classic... gotta say it one time.

I am a big Bayern fan as I am with Chrome but Bayern's resume dont stack up. its just dont... now i cant wait for the 4 year old season next year there is gonna be some really good racing.... really really good


(takes another puff from crack pipe) --- just kidding.. always appreciate a good ole crack pipe comment

Okay well I hope you handle disappointment well.

Regarding the 4 year old seasons... again, try not to count on it cause anything can happen.

I hope I'm wrong on all counts.

Am I correct that Chrome ran the last 3/8 in 36 1/5 seconds? Is that pretty slow for a Grade I?

If they ran fast in the early part of the race, it shouldn't matter if the second half went slow.

Hey, why not extrapolate that further and end up with 12f in 2:24 flat!
