So the whole purpose of racing is to prove yourself in one race?
Have you ever owned a horse?
One that is not on a stick?

You sound like the a-holes that teach organic chemistry.

[SCUDSBROTHER]

There are 10-12 (at least) trainers that are having the same type of discussion with their owners. It's just that Casse has an even better excuse than the other 10-11 guys.


Which would you want to tell War of Will's owner, Gary Barber?



"We are gunna have to cut back to a sloppy 8 or 9 furlongs, Gear, Buddy. We are a little short of air going 10f."





or





"We were gunna be right there, if we didn't get brutally fouled. Oh, boy. He would of been right there. I just know it, Gear. Thank God he got taken down. He cost us 2nd or 3rd minimum, minimum. Trust me , pal. He was rolling. "

He's 72 or 73 years old, and could pass for 78. This was his best chance to win a Derby. He repulsed three huge bids in this race. He has nothing to prove to anyone. I wouldn't race him. The point needs to be made that dq's should be reserved for elevating horses that were clearly kept from what otherwise would of been a top placing in the race. That is more important than winning any other race.

The way this was done is making it totally a matter of luck. If he'd of fouled horses than were good, he could of still gotten 3rd money. Because he fouled horses that couldn't get 10f, he got put all the way down to 17th. How is that ( in any way) a standard of punishment?

Are you just trying to post the dumbest stuff you can at this point?

You need to move on from the Pick-3 skunking in 2005. It's clear that SCUDS has...now it's time for you, like him, to be the better man.

If not, we may have to sentence you to a lifetime of posting on youtube.

Good call on War of Will not getting the distance.

Too bad Maximum Security fouled him so bad in the Derby. We might have had a chance at a Triple Crown in 3 weeks

Lol I doubt that. That was not a good field and he got perfect trip.

The point is it was ridiculous to conclude he “couldn’t get the distance” based on being severely fouled at a key point in the race.

Based on today, who knows what would’ve happened in the Derby.

Funny how it didn’t take long to criticize a horse who showed up 2 weeks after the Derby, while MS is taking his “rest.”

Vindication big time and I couldn’t be happier for the connections.

Hey horse won good for him and connections. This had nothing to do with derby. This Preakness field was maybe worst we have seen in long time. Proven by Everlast finishing second.

Like I said, it’s funny how it took like 5 minutes to downplay his performance. Today proved the horse can stay a distance of ground. Who knows what happens if he isn’t fouled.

Hopefully we get to see them meet again when MS cycles back.

I hope they run against each other again cause tv will eat it up. His performance today was okay but like I said that was a bad bunch of coconuts. I don’t think has any relevance to derby.

I’m wondering if this three year old group might just not be that good right now. This Preakness field may have been weak...I'm not sure...but I’m also not sure the derby horses behind MS were that great.

That said, I believe the Preakness time was the 2nd fastest time in the last 20 years (behind Curlin).

Disagree. In retrospect War of Will might have been making the winning move in the Derby when he was fouled. Came from the one post in both races. Made is own trip both times.
