But remember now, before you totally dismiss him, he has won at four different tracks.

And at four different distances to boot! Why, he must be the second coming of Dr. Fager!

His two stake wins coming over the AQU Inner dirt track, and at Hawthorne. At the expense of such immortals as Wafi City and Reporting for Duty.

He's not for me!---interestingly enough, BRIS has him as the outright fastest horse on their figs coming into the Derby.

yeah I know, 106!

Amazing that with that monster figure that Reporting for Duty and Bold start were within 2-3 lengths of him.

His adoring fan showed up, you can't let a BTW post go up without trying to interject some stupid comment to try and gain favor with him.

He doesn't have to take his track with him. If a horse can show versatility and the ability to ship, that's a positive. All I hear is he's slow and no one has given me any evidence of how he's so slow he's only 5 points off of the top BSF. If someone can explain that logic to me, I would love to hear it. Besides, I'll wait and look at the Sheets if he looks slow there, then I will discount him, because I believe those are superior numbers to the BSF's.

Thanks, I haven't looked at them yet. Someone with something constructive to say. Like I said at the beginning if they have him slow, I would believe them, but I see alot of Beyer fans here who claim that he's slow and he's only 5 points slower off of the Beyer top. They'll probably put their figs up next week as a pre purchase for all of the Derby preps, we'll see what the Ill Derby comes up and go from there.

Tony Clifton aka Java Gold, a guy so pathetic that he was even embarrassed to post behind one disgraced screen name, that he had to create another one in order to criticize others while offering absolutely nothing of value.

Blackthroat you are so good at jumping the gun without knowledge. But that it seems is clearly your MO...

For your "records" throat the system crashed and we were asked to join over again. Was actually tempted to use the Tony Clifton name again but thought I would change it to get sad folks like you something to work on.

Dude... talk about offering absolutely nothing of value??? wow.. The only good thing that happened to you is being in the right place at the right time "LIL" Andy. Your old news Throat. Nice black rims however....

versatility and the ability to ship, and the only horse you can come up with is Cowtown? Don't you think there are just a few other horses fitting that description?

good luck, bet early and often.

Heck, Hard Spun's won over four different tracks, two different surfaces, and actually has talent.
