i think he'll do just fine...i think many would be all over the horse had he won by a nose, rather then lose by one.

It's comical to me how you tend to contradict previous statements that you've made. I'll just leave it at that.

Or how about that you'd go on and on about how a horse is going to get beaten and your only basis for the statement is that you just don't like him. Doesn't have anything to do with his performances on the track, just a personal distaste. That should be another handicapping tool, the PG1985 likeability quotient.

Sheesh, when did hard races become a negative? Hard race didn't hurt Silver Charm. Didn't hurt Monarchos. Hey, War Emblem actually LOST a couple of races at FG before he shipped to Sportsmen's, and he wasn't eased. A horse NEEDS a hard race or two to get him fit and mentally tough.

amazing that anyone feels a horse losing by 1 1/2 is a better bet next time, then a horse who shows guts and determination and loses a photo!

yeah,lol, ask PG 1985 about his big bet on discreet cat. no racing ,missed the prep ,going the distance first time. nobiz,bilnkers on ,lugging in, looking around during crunch time. kid, don't go heavy on this one , i'll try to save you money. i tried to teach you about handicapping last week. not saying he won't win. (i like him too) but at 7-5 its not the right time to unload, use your head this time !

I would find it utterly captivating if you had anything to offer as reasoning for Nobiz winning besides distaste for Any Given Saturday.

Neither Nobiz or AGS have the proper number of syllables to win the Ky Derby

He is pretty much telling you to go back to Handicapping school.
