It'll actually be awesome when he wins none of those!

Who the hell is he supposed to win the Woody with, Lord Nelson? Bayern better bounce back in a big way and the Belmont...

Yeah, I can't figure out what lock he has for the Stephens, and if the story about Bayern almost being retired a few months ago is true, you can't like his chances.

I have no idea why you persist in underestimating AP, but him losing is unlikely.

To be fair I did say imagine if. Never mentioned locks.
Lord Nelson 7f or less races have been tons better then him trying to go long. He should have won the Bay Shore.

Lord Byron tries hard but can't see him beating Competitive Edge. I'm not jumping on the Bayern train till he stretches out two turns and projects as the pace setter. With AP i think he will be as ready as Baffert can have him. My only fear is Espinosa at Belmont. He just needs to drop the reins out of the gate and let the horse place himself.

Why do you hate Bob? As for Bayern is it unreasonable to assume he won't move forward 2nd start back? He was dealing with some issues over the winter, I'd guess him even showing up for the Met would mean he is healthy.

What would make you think its personal, that he hates Bob? I have to say, when I'm at the track and people are yelling for the heavy fave....I shake my head. I'm pretty sure it's more about trying to get a big pay day. And the Belmont oftentimes produces that.
