Has War of Will not proved how good he is before today? Those Fair Grounds races has shown to be super live.
I think today’s win was average and still think MS is best three year old and I bet neither in either race. Hopefully we see them compete this summer instead of on derby trail message board

You keep kind of avoiding admitting War of Will is a pretty good horse. Not sure why but the West’s would be very proud of you.

Whoa! You're back after a mere 11 years?

Nice surprise! Hope you stick around.

True. First quarter and you could tell the three front runners were toast.

To me saying the rail was good is lazy and the kind of thing that leads some handicappers (not you) to get married to bad opinions that aren’t correct. Especially since the track was so fair yesterday.

I think it was fair today. Every horse that won on dirt was 1st or 2nd betting choice, with the exception of War of Will (3rd choice) and Lexitonian who won a 3 way photo over 2 horses that were nowhere near the rail.
