Any Given Saturday ran his best race to date. Street Sense ran not as good as his juvenile race but NO ONE expected that he would repeat that effort first off the layoff so his performance is perfectly in line with his previous high standards. They both achieved very nice 101 beyers and equaled the track record. And all this was done while they were sore and did not have the pretty strides that they had last year. I'm also kinda shocked that two training icons could have done such a poor job not maintaining the horses pretty two year old stride, and allowing plainly obvious sore horses to compete. The whole thing is quite perplexing, why wouldn't the soreness and lack of stride fluidity show up in the actual performance? |

![]() I know that y'all are familiar with the late Bonnie Ledbetter.
God, she shows up here at DerbyTrail, reincarnated. In the flesh. Who'd a thought!! I hope that you hire yourself out for the sales Roses, because folks like Michael Tabor and the Maktoums pay big money for that wealth of knowledge you have. |

Still, I have to keep in mind that this is part on the online experience, . . . in other words, I couldn't make this S**T up. Entertainment and all, this it is. |

Good trainers run sore horses all of the time. Bobby Frankel ran Empire Maker in the Derby didn't he? Badge of Silver was sore as he could be while working at Churchill Downs before the BC too. He finished in the money. What about BG Cat? Front wraps for the first time and then he all of a sudden has a broken leg after the race? I actually gave Street Sense a good shot to win. My outlook on everything was that they were just trying to squeeze a few more races out of him and that he would probably be good for a few more starts. |

![]() Carl Nafzger did a fine job of getting a full career of good races out of Banshee Breeze. I realize you weren't born yet when she raced but she was a very sore going horse.
A lot of expertise being blathered here with virtually no background to back it up. Newbies beware! |
